MJL Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 You can always try fly fishing the islands for pike. Ample room for back casts in a lot of the places and if it gets windy, you can move to another sheltered canal. The problem with fly fishing around Toronto is the pedestrian traffic although in March, I'd imagine it would be lighter than in summer. The spit is another option - Kilometers of shoreline to fish and open if you have waders. Humber for steelhead and suckers is another option.

Headhunter Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 Hey Kevin, I'm at Dundas and Greenwood, puts me close to you and Lew! Sounds like the beginnings of a GTG! Perhaps we could bring this topic up again, as we get closer? Wouldn't mind hooking up if I can get away for a few hours. HH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFSC Kevin Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 yeah, maybe when we get closer to the time we should bring this topic back up. i never tried fly fishing before, never touched a fly rod in my life. Usually when i stay to fish in toronto, i go down to the spits, and conviently, now they are opening a CTC there. awesome! do you guys know when it's opening?

urbanangler1990 Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 have no idea what the spits are spits r at the south end of leslie street, i believe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJL Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 (edited) have no idea what the spits are The spit is a piece of land that juts out into lake Ontario. Pack light because it's a long hike end to end. Better yet, hire DSN for the day as that's around his home turf. He accepts donuts and cookies as payment for a half a day trip and dinner for a full days guiding...Of which I have yet to pay for last seasons adventures...

BFSC Kevin Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 yup, quite a walk from the entrance, probably around a 20 min walk but i normally rollerblade or bike there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headhunter Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 I believe it's around 10 k to the Lighthouse and back. There are numerous places to fish along the various shore lines, most however would require waders/tubes or a boat to get out to fishable waters.

majorlifts Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 The Humber sound good. Dude!! I just scored a new fly jacket today at the second hand store with the tags still on it $12 bucks. I love fly fishing, only I would be looking for a quiet little corner away from all the hustle and bustle of the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
