Places to fish near Burlington

[kevinhiles]

I'm a newbie at fishing but I want to start fishing a lot more. I don't have a boat yet, so I still need to fish from land. Are there any fishing spots/lakes/streams within an hour's driving distance of Burlington that I can fish at that have fish that are safe to eat? I'd like to be able to eat some of the fish I catch.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

Check out a map of the Grand River from Fergus to Lake Erie.

Lots of good spots that you can try.

 

Good luck

Hey justfishing, do yourself a favour and create another post with an introduction. Tell us a bit about yourself and some of your great fishing exploits, etc. People are a lot more welcoming once we know that you are going to give back as well.

 

And don't forget to participate in others posts as well. Maybe you know of a spot that someone else is asking about, or have some gear that someone is thinking of buying and can give a review.

 

Welcome, and good luck.

Thanks for the advice! I'm new to fishing and just bought equipment within the last few weeks. So at this point I appreciate any help I can get!

If you want fish to eat go to Hutch's or the Fortino's

If you want to catch fish try Bay Front Park behind Hutch's on Bay Street North.
