Southern Ontario - Fish Populations Down?

This is true but again, it's my opinion it has nothing to do with fish populations. This year for some reason there were less fish up shallow on Erie and many of the smallmouth spawned deep. Also, smallies will spawn in 20+ feet of water and this year it was the norm. If you fished shallow near Crystal Beach...Windmill, Rosies, or even on the US side, you'd be hurting for fish. I know because I went out and after hitting all my 8-12 ft waypoints had little to show for it. I reluctantly moved out to late summer/early fall water and there they were. The 20-35ft range held them all.

100% in agreement. Like I said 1/3 the number of shallow spawners in front, or out back according to some. Out front is the money side to me. Heading out for Walleye tomorrow to 5 mile, I will troll for Bass in 25 to 40 feet on the way to the Pic weighpoints.
