solopaddler Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 Still tons of ice and slush especially in the whirlpool, I'd wait a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziki Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 Who is your buddy?? The whirlpool is below the falls. Anyone else see something fishy about all this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 I think you are talking the Queenston ramp, I myself just figured out where it was (Thanks Jack! lol) You are going to have a real tough time down there with a flyrod, it's big river. I would bring a spinning setup as backup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellfish Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 The whirlpool is certainly below the falls, flyfishing @ queenston would be a little difficult that to say the least as was said earlier you want to hit up the glen or the whirpool with your fly rod im sure it is possible to flyfish queenston but with the amount of ppl that will be out there soon it will be nearly impossibly. If Paul or niagrafisher read this thread im sure they will chime in with some info on flyfishing the mighty niagara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcusDiGiovanni Posted January 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 My friends name is Matthew Saivea, ehs a centre pin guy and says he gonna bottom bounce, i figure if im down there I may as well wet a line... right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlied Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 get yourself on the niagara parkway. go past the power plant and stick to your right at the circle after the power plant. go down the hill and dumphreys is like the second street at the bottom of the hill. make a right turn on dumphreys and follow that straight thru 2 stop signs and continue going straight. can't miss the launch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcusDiGiovanni Posted January 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 THANK YOU!, is it a productive spot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlied Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 it can be if you know how to fish it. Like some of the other guys said it is not a fly fishing spot but maybe your friend will set you up with a bottom bouncing set-up. Alot of fish hold in there before the spring run up the rapids.

dnb_cbr Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Well, how did it go? I just seen your partner's facebook status. It said he got 9 chromers. That's a great day for sure! How was the ice flow situation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcusDiGiovanni Posted February 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 lol, didnt even go...IM really cheezed, like i died a little on the inside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 You wouldn't have even made a cast, you didn't miss out on much. So much ice flow I made maybe 5 decent drifts with my float setup on Saturday and that was it. Chatted with a few guys down there, all were bottom bouncing. Flyfishing would have been an even worse decision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
