Overnighter on the Islands?

[MJL]

I’m just wondering if anyone has ever pulled an overnight fishing session on the Toronto islands before. I love fishing at night for carp but there seems to be an increasing trend for pay parking and night closures at the parks where I fish in the GTA – Plus the rising price of gas doesn’t help either. Is it legal to stay overnight on the islands? I imagine beyond the residents who live there, raccoons and mosquitoes would probably be the only things out during the night (hopefully). There are a few swims on the islands that look absolutely mint for 2am fishing.

 

Any info is much appreciated

 

Thanks

I've done it. Beware of fire ants. There are TONNES. And keep something close at hand... I've encountered some very shady individuals many times down there.

I've thought of doing it as well, pulling an all nighter at the islands. I'm sure people have been stranded on the islands before after the ferry stops leaving.

Never stay out without it!

i think it's legal ... back when I used to do dragonboating and when I attended the annual race in June, lots of people stay there overnight
