slick973 Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 Hello everyone, I am new to the board, have been reading it for a week or so now, and decided I might as well join. As my name suggests I am a little bit new too fishing, so any tips and tricks would be greatly appreciated. I mainly fish out of the Hamilton and surrounding area, so any good spots that you could recommend would be awesome. Anyways, looking forawrd to getting to know all of you, and hopefully posting some pics. Take care and happy fishing guys John
ccmtcanada Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 I dont know much about the Hamilton area, but welcome to the board! Someone will come through for you to get you started. Beware, this board can be addictive...and so far there is no cure!!!
easton13th Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 Welcome to the board! Try some of the local Conservation areas around Hamilton! 50 point, Binbrook, Vallens, Guelph lake, Or if you dare Hamilton Harbour. Good Luck Where ever you fish! ENJOY
Jen Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 Welcome to the board...There is a lot of water around Hamilton, try out the old train bridge off York, or the point. Probaby bump into you a time or two as the weather gets better. I am the mom, yelling at her kids to cast into the water, not at one another. LOL Enjoy the OFC family, I certainly do! Cheers Jen
bbog Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 Welcome to the board John. You're sure to find some great information here! I've got Binbrook penciled in myself for sometime this season.
The Urban Fisherman Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 Hey dude! welcome to the board.....i though I knew alot about fishing until I joined.....ya learn something new every day! cheers, UF
slick973 Posted March 21, 2007 Author Report Posted March 21, 2007 Wow, Thank you for all the quick replies and friendly welcomes. I was thinking about trout fishing in some of the local rivers and streams, but not too sure on which ones are good, or which ones will even have trout in them. I heard that its trout spawning time pretty soon, so I was looking on getting in the action. I've been told a place called hidden valley is pretty good, if anyone has heard of it, any info on it would be nice. Any whoo, I look forward to seeing and hearing from yall again soon. Take care, and tahnks again. John

tonyb Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 The burlington shipping canal attracts trout and salmon in the spring. It's hit or miss based on my experience but it can be good there. Good luck and welcome to OFC! Tony
