Great report!

9ft is perfect, if you have the choice get some moonshine spoons too.

NICE! Forgetting something

Wow, that's good! Doesn't look like a very bright spoon though...

we'll keep it at bronte too

alright then, 9pm on the 7th, see you there

Thanks, you can fish off of there, just running an event you need permission.

Well I contacted oakville and it would take 4 weeks to get the permit and cost about $200, I'm hoping that was because it's next to the marina, so I emailed mississauga asking about their pier, we'll see what they say. I'm hoping this will happen september 7, it's a little later than I'd like but it's probably the best I can do.

Bait

Another stellar trip Mike, keep em coming! And please bring the sign tonight

Nice hawgs there! I've actually found that pike really like senkos if you get it close enough to them.

Great fish!

they were too tall for suckers, we considered it.

LOL, it was a guess. I think I figured out what the fish was, gizzard shad.

A friend of mine was heading down to harbourfront yesterday to try for some big pike. We got to spot one and we could already see one that was well over 30", but try as we might he would not hit, although he did take a look at a senko and fly. So we kept walking and found a few more fish, had one pike on but lost him, saw another giant and that was about it for the pike. By then it was midday and my friends had had enough for one day, I stayed behind to try for some carp. About a half hour later I had the pleasure of fighting this brute on 6lb line. When I went to net her she actually snapped the net in half (kind of my fault), measured 32" and had to be 30lbs. On a side note we kept seeing a school of fish which none of us could identify. They were about 1-2lbs, swam in a group of roughly 20 fish and looked to be spawning. At first glance they look like a cross between a bighead carp, silver carp and cisco, any idea to what they may be?

lol, what about a weighted treble with 3 marsh mallows

Lol, we'll I know the ministry discourages the use of bait so I think it would be lures only, but I suppose you could tip a spoon with one!

Was thinking of hosting a pier fishing tournament for salmon in the next couple weeks. It would be small with 10-30 participants, probably about $20 entry fee. I think bronte would be the best location since its close enough to the major cities and its a big pier with lots of fish. Obviously it would be run at night, probably 9 to 1 or 2 am. Would anyone on here be interested?

Was this a guide? If it was name away...

Forget rainbows, what about big browns?

I think it would be a pretty interesting experiment, doesn't seem like there are a lot of spawning area though.
