rbaquial Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Just wondering if anyones been around the area to see what the water is like. If its still iced-over or not? I plan on heading there tomorrow morning... Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADB Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 I haven't been around there to see, but a smaller lake I checked out was still frozen, even along the shoreline. What are you going to be fishing for, anyways? Pike? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbaquial Posted March 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Yeah, I'm hoping to.... (Pike) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SERG Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Hello. I never been there , can you fish from shore? and what kind of fish is there ? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbaquial Posted March 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Yeah, there are a lot of places you can fish from shore - supposedly that place holds some bass and pike...(depending on season)... if you send me a PM along with your EMAIL ADDRESS, I can send you a .PDF file of places in Toronto that are good for 'Shore Fisherman' - its on the MNR website too.

capt bruce Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Was there yesterday working and its still frozen ,(we're doing alot of inprovements to the pond and building a classroom , lunch area ,for students to come and study the pond after we finish,this will be the first hay bail constructed building in toronto) but the ice is thinning around the shore wont last much longer . we are doing lots of work on the pond and surrounding area and I made sure I used my imput to make sure when we're finished the pond will have 3 very nice shoals for bass spawning and more ares for access for fishing. working in Storm water management has its good side .

rbaquial Posted March 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Awesome stuff Capt. Bruce! Can't wait to hit the area once its all complete! PS: As you can tell, I didn't end up going fishing this morning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highdrifter Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 See it every morning on my way to the office... She's still frozen over. Looked sketchy too. If you're planning on heading that way, ya might as well check out the lake side. You'll have open water even in the sheltered areas, where you'll most likely find them. Any flats with good weed growth will hold pike this time of year too. Happy piking! HD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anatz Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 The ice is out but the fish has not moved in yet. Late April, you would be able to catch sunfish, crappie and perch. I'm developing a website dedicated to this pond since I go fishing there like 4 times a week during the summer. www.grenadierpond.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anatz Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 I'm actually going to try the pond today using pieces of shrimp. Hopefully they would start biting by now. I'll let you know how it goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuNnYoOzE Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 I would love to check out the pond but seriously my local has loads of open water to fish...seems crazy to drive to Toronto to fish , unless it is to meet some people...always nice to fish with someone!

misfish Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 (edited) I remember the peacoaks and lamas.I was 7 or 8 at the time. Feed the ducks in the small pond there and also watched guys with remote power boats. Edited October 23, 2010 by BrianB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I've actually been using worms for months. I actually was referring to when I went fishing 4 or 5 weeks ago.

Beans Posted October 24, 2010 Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 Did anyone ever try SouthWest pond (the pond west of Grenadier pond)? When I was a young lad playing hooky from grade school, we used to get some minnows there using an old piece of curtain to use in the big pond... Back then (60 years ago) we called it Catfish pond...don't know why, never saw any catfish in our net... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although little fish will still hit big lures as well. Stick with ole faithfull. Worms and bobbers rule... You fish the pond often do you? I was at the park last week on a feild trip with my kids class. Just about your age.... Edited October 24, 2010 by gbfisher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
