adam lancia Posted October 10, 2014 Report Posted October 10, 2014 Hi all, a few of us are looking for some decent shore fishing spots in and around the GTA. We'd like to fish bass primarily. The thing is that a few of our group are paraplegics and rely on wheelchairs to get around. That being said, we're all Paralympic athletes so we don't need a paved, smooth, level area but bush whacking isn't in the cards either. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks in advance!
Tim Mills Posted October 10, 2014 Report Posted October 10, 2014 I understand Center Island has some good bass and pike fishing from shore, maybe the ponds in High Park would also work for your group
JoshS Posted October 10, 2014 Report Posted October 10, 2014 The islands would be accessible. You could start in Hanlen's and work your way around. The harbourfront has a few spots as well however not so great for bass. But if you are interested in pike or carp there are more options. I'll send over a pm.
irishfield Posted October 10, 2014 Report Posted October 10, 2014 I don't know Adam.. I've watched you guys play and I bet you' d have no trouble on a fly in with some of us old buggers! Can't help with the shore spots..
Toronto_Angler Posted October 10, 2014 Report Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) Hey Adam, I'm a fan and fellow Scarborough boy! You can try the Mouth of the Rouge all kinds of fish in there depending on when you go. For anyone who doesn't know Adam check this out. Very cool that he posts here!

fishermccann Posted October 10, 2014 Report Posted October 10, 2014 At the bottom of Liverpool rd. in Pickering.
thatleetboy Posted October 10, 2014 Report Posted October 10, 2014 My little guy is just in awe of the Wheelchair basketball team... He believes that they *are* the Pan Am Games! They're heroes to my boy. They kindly let him in to watch their practice this morning, and were more than generous with their time. My wife just happened to grab a few pics of Adam in action... Anyhow Adam, I have to agree that either Toronto Island or the mouth of the Rouge might work for you guys... I try to fish from shore myself, but haven't had much luck finding bass in the Rouge, I do believe that they are there, they are just smarter than I am.
adam lancia Posted October 11, 2014 Author Report Posted October 11, 2014 Thank you for all the replies guys! By the sounds, the island may well end up being our destination. Leet: it's always great meeting new fans! Your son and wife made great spectators at our scrimmage this morning. If you (or anyone else for that matter) is interested, I can post our upcoming games as the dates and times are finalized.
Old Ironmaker Posted October 11, 2014 Report Posted October 11, 2014 Awe inspiring Adam. I never was able to crack the starting 5 in High School, when it was a 1 room school house, actually not that long ago but a while back for sure. You guys represent us with pride. As for fishing from shore, next year take a ride to Haldimand County. The carp in May are stacked up like cordwood. After opening Bass are here from shore as well. Many accessible spots all along the county from Dunnville to Nanticoke. Take a road trip next year. PM me in the spring if I'm still here. If you can't catch 20 nice Bass in an hour at the right spot you must not have a hook on.
