a glimpse of my soon to be fishing spot

[balapickerel]

the two big ones are are bathurst and humreland

 

[balapickerel]

two things, first i would like to mention that this stretch of the humber comes from lake wilcox, so any of the fish from there could be in there, but i doubt that the bigger fish like pike would br in there, and second, the pond has been there for a long time but when the suburbs aound it were built i believe some work was done on the pond.

I see. It's also connected to Lake St. George which has a vast fish population.

And just to give you an idea of how many ponds fall into this category (that I mentioned in my last post), here is the Humber River:

Now think about how many ponds are connected to this system alone.

 

[balapickerel]

wow, does the humber flow from or into lake ontario?

 

[openfire]

All Lake Ontario Tributaries flow into Lake Ontario, including the Humber River.

 

[balapickerel]

ok, i'm just making sure none of the crap porter mentioned was flowing into the pond

You're probably correct, but take a look at this fish caught in one of the ponds. This picture is from the GTA reports section. It's a pond that's connected to a river system that is full of bass and pike. So you never know...

BTW, the pond that this fish was caught in is in the middle of a suburb and is listed in the maps section.

while that gets my hopes up about what i'll catch

 

[Porter86]

haha. yeah nah not upstearm, only downstream,lol. thats why were the humber enters into lake O its all brown, well part n most the reason there.

 

[balapickerel]

haha...eww, that means that quite a few people go swimming in thier own shit

 

[balapickerel]

we've really managed to stray off topic haven't we?

 

[Porter86]

haha not really. but i dont think anyone dares swim in the brown water.

 

[balapickerel]

but it would still spred throughout the lake

 

[Porter86]

yes but no. dont forget currents, some would get carried out to the bottom of the lake, n some would stay were it is.

 

[balapickerel]

something horrible is happening , theres contruction going on at the pond that just started yesterday and they have digging machines, they're just dumping the rocks and soil and plastic shit right onthe ice , i hope they cean that up before the ice melts

 

[openfire]

I hope they clean that up before the ice melts, but I don't think they will. I would call the city and report it just to be safe. It would be interesting to hear what the city has to say about it.

 

[balapickerel]

i think they're acctually from the water maintenance department, they're digging near the water drain for the sewers

 

[balapickerel]

going to check out the pond tomorrow so look forward to some pics, and possibly some fish :lol:

 

[balapickerel]

i checked out the pond but didn't take any pictures, there was a thin layer ice but i still managed to see one big shadow move through the water, wonder what it was???

 

[ec1]

did they take the soil off the pond?
