chessy Posted March 20, 2011 Report Posted March 20, 2011 Had a conversation with a fellow ganaraska fish way operator and he tells me the mnr are not going to allow rainbows over the ladder so they can protect the atlantics... this seem outrageous to hurt a fishery that is doing fine to help out a fishery that may not make it two destroy one to help the other makes no sense to me
Photoz Posted March 20, 2011 Report Posted March 20, 2011 Just curious . . . . what does Cobourg Creek have to do with the Ganaraska fishway? Over in Cobourg Creek there IS no fishway . . . . every spring Ron & other members of OFC go over to the dam on Cobourg Creek and hand lift the rainbows over? Does this mean there will be no volunteers at Coboug Creek, or are they going to block the fishway on the Ganny up by #401? I'm cornfoooosed?

No, they won't block the Port Hope fishway off, this just has to do with the stocking of Atlantic Salmon in the upper Cobourg Creek that they are trying to "protect", apparently. At least that's what I think they mean.... correct me if I'm wrong though.

I'm cornfoooosed? sorry it was late at night when i got the message... the fishladder guy was talking to the mnr because the coboug creek lift uses stuff from the fishladder at the ganny. he was told there would be no cobourg fish lift this year .
fishhunter Posted March 21, 2011 Report Posted March 21, 2011 I have heard that for a few years now and every year they do a lift in cobourg. Time will tell. Still lots of time before they need to go over.
Michael_Brown Posted March 21, 2011 Report Posted March 21, 2011 I would find this hard to believe but I will look into it. This lift has been going on for years and has helped maintain a decent fishery in Cobourg. Tons of work and effort by a great group of volunteers.
chessy Posted March 22, 2011 Author Report Posted March 22, 2011 (edited) So, a 'fellow" told you this chessy? ya like i said in the following post it was late at night... should have said another long time 20 year Volunteer, but fellow will work. A fellow in the broadest sense is someone who is an equal or a comrade. Edited March 22, 2011 by chessy
chessy Posted March 22, 2011 Author Report Posted March 22, 2011 Well there is going to be a fish lift in cobourg this year .. it will be one of the next 3 saturdays. which ever sat is warmer ... there will be advanced notice by the press in plenty of time for people to participate
