Casey123 Posted April 1, 2008 Report Posted April 1, 2008 (edited) Every year we fish a favourite trib in central ontario. We fish it opening weekend and always have great sucess with lower then average pressure for the weekend. On the strech of the river, there is a beauty hole, 10 feet + in depth and very, very long. Problem is, the steelies never stack up in the hole. They always sit in the rifts and log jams up stream and down stream but I have never seen or caught a fish in the hole. The trib is a nice gravel bottom with gin clear water(my fav water condition to fish). Thanks in advance Michael Edited April 1, 2008 by 4Reel
canadian_copper Posted April 1, 2008 Report Posted April 1, 2008 THERE THERE TO SPAWN !!! THEY DONT SPAWN IN DEEP POOLS!!!
ccmtcanada Posted April 1, 2008 Report Posted April 1, 2008 What CC said....they need the high oxygen levels in the rifts for their eggs to survive from what I understand.
Casey123 Posted April 1, 2008 Author Report Posted April 1, 2008 Thanks, That answers my question. Logic, what a beautiful thing. I guess in the summer, I am use to the native trout seeking out the deep holes.
bow slayer Posted April 1, 2008 Report Posted April 1, 2008 check it late in the spring the dropbacks will use this after spawning.On the tribs I fish we catch dropbacks all the way into mid june always in deep pools.
