Any update at mouth of Credit River?

[mitchrz]

I'm just wondering if people are still fishing the mouth of the Credit with good results?

I haven't been in a while since the last few outings were fruitless, but definitely want to go when the action is hot and not waste gas. Or is the river good now?

Hi bud,
Went there Sunday, could see 5 or so lurking at Erindale, caught a 20lb Chinook hen that day. The mouth was not producing, was not there long but did not seem like there was any action.
Will get back to you when i get to Erindale today.
Cheers and good luck

I just went there around 8:30 pm tonight and saw a guy caught around 25lbs of salmon under the bridge of Port Credit. Talk to other guy and been told that he caught around 10 big salmon last night but he droped the other 3 since he got too many.

Strange. Any day now though for the GTA

I checked out Erindale last night since no action and the amount of wind was too much at the mouth... a couple of fish at the ice breakers. Seemed like roe was the hot bait to use. I'm going back there after work for a bit. Not sure if I should check out burnamthorpe bridge area though.

Did you see how many salmon he was keeping? A sporting license will allow you to keep 5 and a conservation license will allow you to keep two. If the guy caught 10 and only let three go, he is still over the allowed limit, thus he's poaching.

I would advise anyone who sees another angler keeping more than their limit to call the MNR tips line. You can call anonymously, but what really helps is you capturing the person on camera and forwarding that as evidence to MNR.

Keep this number in your cell phone: 1-877-847-7667

Didnt exactly see him caught that many but been told by the guy that I talked to that a man in proximity caught that many the other night. I would sure contact the number if I see something fishy, one 25 lb is enough to feed for month LOL It was a lot fun seeing this salmon fought and jumping off the water.

What on earth would anyone want to do with 10 mother ****** salmon? lol

The MNR can likely just check GTA hospitals for anyone admitted recently with mercury poisoning...

Either that or he's opening a bait shop with all that roe.

there is action at the peir at port credit. i got there at about 6am on sunday and at about 7:30 they started surface feeding, the guys who were abe to chuck their rapala j13's the distance hooked up pretty decent. but the timing of the day does matter.

 

[DEVIN]

sadley i did not have any j13's.. only cleos :cry:

sadley i did not have any j13's.. only cleos :cry:

Cleos work just as well.. went to port hope for 2hrs and hooked into a nice brown trout within half an hour.. there were some other guys fishing spoons and j-13s constantly hooking into fish. maybe 15guys on the peir fishing so it was a good day.

It boggles my mind to see people dragging 5 30lb BOOTS through the river behind them..

Like seriously... It's bad enough to eat even a portion of 1 of those.. but 5???? And i'm not talking fresh run salmon either.... These are the ones that have been in the river for 2 months lol.

Hey guys, just to remind you about fish eating and the guidelines that are presented by the ministry is that most of the toxins lie within the solid fat of the fish which is majorly near the belly, spine and the layer between skin and flesh. So you can eat a portion of the fish but make sure it's a nice meaty chunk with little fat distribution.

Anyway, I checked out the mouth last night... nothing was hitting spoons from 8:30-10pm. Not sure if I should be wasting my time there and focus mainly on the river.
