I never here about salmon fishing?


My fishing season is starting so I'm excited about that. I fish a salt water lake that has a great river that is a hoot to fish. Lots of Chinnook! Any of you guys fish?

Funny you mention fishing. My son and I have this ritual every year he stays at my place for a week. We go fishing. We went today, and true to our record, we didn't catch anything. We lost lots of worms though. Not sure what the heck we are doing wrong. We were sure we'd catch something this time. I wanted to try out my funky fish handling gloves....

By drowning some worms and going out with your son you already caught something. Companionship!smile Just a couple of hints, the temperature of the water will dictate where the fish are located.

I'm hoping to get away to the Island to do some fishing in the near future. Just not sure where to go. I don't have any heavy gear though. Thinking of just taking a charter.

Bare hands... and yeah you usually end up bleeding! The sharp treble hooks with a fish thrashing in the boat are the most dangerous!

I'd love to try it where you are, what kind of bait/lures do you use? and pretty heavy rods etc too i suppose...

I would reply to two posts this way. Yes you need heavy gear (40lb test), and if your coming this way a charter is the way to go. I spend a liitle time off shore (26 miles), but if you don't have a huge boat it can be ruff and dangerous. There is tons of close rivers and inlets that produce salmon and are much safer. If you ever get the chance try it. Man I would love to go on one of the northern pike trips. They fight hard I here.

Nothing comparable here in Toronto but a friend charters a boat every summer about this time and heads out into Lake Ontario, believe it or not we do have salmon in Lake Ontario. Leave Bluffers Park in the morning back for nice dinner on the pier. 

Oh ya Paul, what's all this talk about fishing? Didn't you just get married?

You should have some atlantic salmon in  lake Ontario. Salmon are very determined animals. Any pictures of the lake or salmon?

Now that boat looks official! We use anchovie and hoochies(sqid) to catch ours.

 What's with the tail on that fish? It looks a little beaten up.

Official or what, he charges $250 a head for the day includes dinner. Lake Ontario must be a tough lake on tail fins.

That sounds about right for a full day of fishing. We halibit charter for about 500.00 for four guys with no meal and it's about six hours of fishing. Still cheaper than owning your own boat that's big enough to take on the open water.

I like ice fishing the best did it in Ontario (with a ice fishing rod and/or tip-up), and now on PEI (with a fish lure/decoy and a small size fish spear).

I don't fish very often, but when I do, it's at an uncle's cottage in the Muskoka's.

We get in his nice fishing boat, put out about 300 ft of line and troll Lake Joseph for lake trout, for hours on end.

I've had some luck over the years and here's the proof :

Unfortunately the cottage has been sold. My uncle couldn't keep it up anymore and he was offered a rediculous amount of money for it. He couldn't refuse and I couldn't match the offer.

Ho-Hum.

I had smoked walleye once and it was awesome! I also had a sockeye Salmon sandwich today. I can't wait to get my line in the water.
