Big Cliff Posted 16 hours ago Report Posted 16 hours ago Sounds like life has provided you with plenty of challenges, I wish I was younger and could get you out but alas I am well beyond that. I really hope one of our members can step up and share some knowledge and experience.
CrowMan Posted 10 hours ago Report Posted 10 hours ago Generally speaking, the spring Steelhead season doesn't open until the fourth Saturday in April in most of the streams on the north shore of Lake Ontario. There are a few areas with a year round season south of the CNR tracks, but these areas are just short sections down at the river mouth. Given the limited areas open right now, they will be very crowded. Once the season opens up at the end of April, the Ganaraska River in Port Hope is one of the most popular spots. There is public access in town and upstream at the Sylvan Glen Conservation Area. Observe the signs, as many areas are posted as private or club waters. Roe bags and beads fished under a float are the most popular early season baits. Don't expect instant success, many anglers spend many days before landing their first Steelhead...there's a definite learning curve. Best to observe successful fisherman, and politely ask questions. Make sure you have an Ontario license, as the rivers are patrolled during the spring. Regulations can be found at.. https://www.ontario.ca/document/ontario-fishing-regulations-summary
Ryan92 Posted 7 hours ago Author Report Posted 7 hours ago Thanks for the kind words and advice are you in Canada I'm in the us and I hear of the every major southern ontario being fished I know northern ontario rivers spawning starts later of course alot of the inlets start in south western new york and heat up faster from what I have learned but if your used to or anyone is used to coming to the US waters even I would let me know I can plan a trip I cant work until may but thanks for the advice I would go with you in northern ontario and I'm a fly fisherman I spend most of the time not fly fishing I fished the bouquet river salmon run 7 years spring and fall most average 17 to 22 inches in spring with a few 7 pounders fall there are fewer but they average 5 pounds ive fished my whole life I would pick up on it fast I don't blindly go out and expect Moby dick. I studied the ontario lake species spawning runs bead fishing I can tie salmon sacks It would be weird if I couldn't in my 20s I would make my old flies I learned from a deceased family member and I know lake trout spots where 10 plus pounders are not rare pike grow big in certain large adirondacks lakes thr occasional musky in the saranac chain tiger musky in some lakes too caught them all the musky was only 38 inches but they are tricky. Walleye too clean clear water mountains not a person in sight again mainly western but some in the central adirondacks and some honey holes I caught a 7 pounder let it go that's big for any adirondack lake and those are spawners. I'm a trout salmon walleye fisherman but I like a challenge I just wish someone who wants to target the lakes in april was available. I need maybe a new girlfriend idk I think I need a girl who likes fishing but I'm just looking for someone to go with that's all my gear is set 12 test long rod leaders rigs eggs spawn plastic worms etc but after the rains and more right now coming things will be flooded at the southern end for a few days but I would wait and take a trip my friend that's no problem. Thank you
