    St. Catherines

    Thinking of heading to St. Cath. to try my luck. Looking at the different Youtube videos, seems like ppl fish off the bottom with roe bags (bottom bouncing). Is this the best method to fish this tributary/port? Will chucking spoons work there as well during the day around this time of year or...

    Fishing in the rain

    Anyone have experience fishing from the piers in the rain? Thunder showers? I know it can be pretty scary out on the piers if there is lightning, and wouldn't want to be out there when there is a light show going on, but in general, safe otherwise with no lightning?

    Huron trib

    Has anyone tried their luck at Bay***ld pier lately? Would like to take the wife and my 2 boys there tonight. I have heard in the past that there is decent size fish that run through that trib, but I have never fished there this time of year for salmon. Thank you.

    Do you really need glow bait at night?

    So, I bought several moonshine glow spoons, a few Cleo's that do not glow along with some J-13's. I also have some flicker shad plugs and other lures. Will the non-glow baits work as well as the glow at night time? I have heard mixed comments about the fishes vision at night and they rely...

    I'm sure some people prefer one over the other but are there any scenarios where one is better than the other?

    Question about Coho vs Chinook salmon

    I have question for you guys. I will go now and then for salmon when they hit the rivers just to scratch an itch before steelhead. I practice C&R 100%. I noticed in last couple outings that people will release chinook and keep coho. WHY IS THAT? Thank you.
