Toronto_Angler Posted October 6, 2020 Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 Had the day off so decided to head down the street and check out Petro Canada Park in Bronte. I had never been so I wanted to see what the salmon run there was like and maybe have a couple casts. I arrived to 20 fishermen crowded around a small pool casting to the same couple of fish, guys in waders chasing around salmon in half inch water and tons of salmon with slit bellies rotting on the side of this tiny creek. Needless to say I will never go back. Where is the sport or fun in this though? It was disgusting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misfish Posted October 6, 2020 Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 Hmmm, sounds the same as it was in early 80.s. Sickning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mamona Posted October 6, 2020 Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 Credit and other tribs are the same. The only difference - every year there are more and more people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRIFTER_016 Posted October 6, 2020 Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 There was a reason I gave up on river salmon and didn't come out to fish until all the rubes left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyButts Posted October 6, 2020 Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 I see this kinda stuff all the time. Salmon run brings out all kinds . Last night I had a spot to myself , just enjoying the evening. I’m retying and along come 3 guys in their early 20’s , hop down and right into my spot. Bunch of carrying on , I lasted 20 mins before I got outta there. Sometimes I wish they required more for fishing than just a license, like maybe some Education and Etiquette on fishing . I’m looking forward to the cold weather, seems to weed out the riff raff of angling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some countries require passing an exam to get the license. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cando Posted October 9, 2020 Report Share Posted October 9, 2020 I use to go down to Erindale Park over 10 years ago and that was happening there. A lot of people complained and the MRN would show up regularly to nab people. I don't know if they still go there or not. I remember BASS would go down and pick up the dead fish and the garbage lining the shoreline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grimsbylander Posted October 9, 2020 Report Share Posted October 9, 2020 Wait, I thought early season catch and release for bass on the Great Lakes was the ultimate heinous crime? 😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
