Port Dalhousie producing good number of spawning Brown Trout.
Posted on November 1st, 2010[nggallery id=344]I had the pleasure of fishing Port Dalhousie, ON from our G3 with my good friend Cliff Zatinski. We started around 8am with cold conditions (about 2-4C). We fished spawn-sacks and Lil’Corky imitation eggs with a 1 1/4oz. pencil sinker/3-way swivel rig along the bottom. The flow was slow to moderate which made for challenging fishing conditions. When the flow is stronger, the fish stack-up in the current break (which was not the case this morning). We saw about 8-anglers fishing from shore who landed about 6-browns and 1-rainbow during the same time we were there. We managed to hook 3-fish, but only landed two. Both were brightly colored male browns in the 5-7 lb. range. Last week the flow was stronger and the fishing much better. Shore anlgers were averaging a fish about every 15-min. using spawn-sacks, imitation eggs and streamer flies.
