GrenadierPond-HighPark Posted August 2, 2015 Report Posted August 2, 2015 Hi All! I thought I would share this with the fishing community. On August 1st, 2015, I had hosted a very successful Free and friendly shore fishing Bass competition at Grenadier Pond, High Park, Toronto. I've started a shore fishing league that is free to everyone to participate. I'm trying to start a new movement for urban anglers to compete in shore fishing competitions since most of us don't own boats or cars or have the money to compete. This is a great way to bring the fishing community together and make new friends. Here is a video highlight of the event. Move over CFL, WTFL is coming through! Also, we had a professional angler who participated in this event! Thanks for coming out! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ewyW1BbDkY http://wheretofish.ca/league/ Tight lines everyone!

Steve Posted August 2, 2015 Report Posted August 2, 2015 good for you!!! bringing more people out to experience what the local waters have to offer is a great thing! advocating catch and release is even better!
misfish Posted August 2, 2015 Report Posted August 2, 2015 Nice advocating catch and release is even better! I aggree 100% with this.^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ We dont want OUR resource depleted. The pond is not that big. Introducing new and many anglers, can be a catch 22. Just something to think about is all. I can remember fishing it in the 70,s out of a row boat with my uncle and pop. There was some great fishing back then. As a kid, every fish was great.LOL Just a side question. Is there still a small animal zoo there? Thats how long ago I have been there.

I believe the zoo is still there. I haven't been part of that park in a long time. I just stick to the pond area.
GrenadierPond-HighPark Posted August 4, 2015 Author Report Posted August 4, 2015 We're still dealing with people taking fish from the pond. But lately, I've been seeing people releasing bass back in. I think my videos on youtube are working. People who visit there to fish recognize me from youtube. This means, they get the message I'm trying to convey to everyone.
