Hi Italo love your shows watch them all the time. I am from the KitchenerWaterloo area and Im looking for any kind of great sport fishing this time of year. Where can I go fish from shore I dont have a boat sadly. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
Posted on May 3rd, 2014Hi Ray…Thank you for your kind words. As you probably know, we are experiencing a late spring which means the fishing has been slow. One of the best locations to fish now is the lower Grand River below the Dunnville, ON dam at Fishmasters Marina for trophy channel catfish. They sell fresh sucker bait right at the marina and you can fish right from shore on their property using a sliding-sinker rig on the bottom, a #1-3/0 bait hook, 1/2-3/4 with a 1″ square piece of fresh sucker right on the bottom. You can catch fish during the day, but night time is also very good. The crappie and bluegill fishing should just be starting on Puslinch Lake and Guelph Lake. You can fish right off of Lake Road on Little Lake (right next to Puslinch Lake), and in Guelp Lake Provincial Park (the east-end of the lake is usually the best for crappie). Best rigs to use at each location for panfish is a sensitive slip-bobber rig with a 1/8 oz. jighead and 1″ plastic grub (tube, curly-tail, etc.)….God bless you, Italo
