Suckers Here in TO Area Yet?

[rhymobot]

Wondering if any of you have seen suckers in the rivers yet east or west of Toronto.

 

Last weekend I checked Col. Samuel Smith park in Etobicoke, Etobicoke Creek, and Cooksville Creek in Sauga. Water was fairly clear in these shallow spots.

 

Since it's gonna be nice this weekend, was thinking of taking my 2 British friends here on a 1 year visa out to catch their first fish ever and they are leaving in 6 weeks. Rather put them onto a fish with some weight than crappies.

 

Trout is too time consuming and hard to catch for non anglers.

 

Thanks.

Was watching some steelhead spawning in the upper reaches of a Lake O. trib today... No suckers yet. Water is still quite cold.

A few suckers in the credit I heard.Which I understand that means the rainbow are winding down.:(Except for the tail backs,in another couple of weeks or so.

I checked bronte last week, nothin, but no rainbows either so their right around the corner, if they're here for 6 weeks maybe go for the crappie now and at the beginning of April try for the sucker. ( I just posted a thread about it got a lot of good advice, just look up White sucker in general discussion)
