Christopheraaron Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Was thinking of hosting a pier fishing tournament for salmon in the next couple weeks. It would be small with 10-30 participants, probably about $20 entry fee. I think bronte would be the best location since its close enough to the major cities and its a big pier with lots of fish. Obviously it would be run at night, probably 9 to 1 or 2 am. Would anyone on here be interested? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Will marshmallows be available at the pier? I'd be interested, depending on the work situation at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopheraaron Posted August 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Lol, we'll I know the ministry discourages the use of bait so I think it would be lures only, but I suppose you could tip a spoon with one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 No bait, k. Earplugs it is. Joking of course. Any salmon discussion has to include the marshmallows. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlowPoke Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 I would be in for a 5am start,end at noon,and wings and beers after. Clearly you've never fished Bronte before. Wings and beer 7pm-9pm; walk across the street catch 4 30lbers and have 3 fist fights in 5 hours and your sober enough to drive home at 2am.

Afraz Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 Hmm sounds, good. I Ought to pull out the Jet Boat and troll around just out of everyone's casting distance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopheraaron Posted August 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 Well I contacted oakville and it would take 4 weeks to get the permit and cost about $200, I'm hoping that was because it's next to the marina, so I emailed mississauga asking about their pier, we'll see what they say. I'm hoping this will happen september 7, it's a little later than I'd like but it's probably the best I can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davierooney Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 hey Chris count me in, although I have never fished for salmon but willing to have a go if someone can give me a little bit of a clue as to what to use ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northernpike56 Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 hey Chris count me in, although I have never fished for salmon but willing to have a go if someone can give me a little bit of a clue as to what to use ? Heaviest, longest rod you own, largest capacity reel spooled with 10-20 pound line, and a few little cleo 2/5 or 3/4 oz spoons. the glowing paint ones work the best. You can charge them with your iPhone camera but it's not necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northernpike56 Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 I'll also probably be there. Can't wait for our Bruce Peninsula trip in a few days too man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
