Pickering Powestation

[jaminsk1]

Am planning on a trip to pickering but have read that they have stopped shore fishing near it? can anyone shed any light on this? was planning on carp fishing and would have no problem casting 80 yards or so to get near the flow. is this possible from the shore? thanks

Sorry I can't confirm for you. B/c of 911 security measures have increased all over sensitive installations like Nuclear power stations. I have heard that fishing from shore is now banned and that boats are not allowed to get too close to the out flow either. Bob Izumi used to fish there years ago as did the Fish'n Canada crew. Now they fish further off shore. Maybe some other member will know for sure.

Good luck.

Like grub's I don't know either...

You could head out and check. Hear the some monster carp are getting hooked.

Yep shore fishing close to the flows are now banned you can fish still from a boat bit there are fences that indicate you cannot fish100 meters from the outflow.

It has been many years since you could shore fish at this location!
