| Fishing is Hot | Thursday, July 26 2007 10:59 am |
| The fishing the past week has been superb.
Doing a couple trips off of Toronto Islands saw a large number of 20+ kings boated each day. SD and Fly is on fire!!! Off of power pro divers back between 140 and 200 feet on a 3 setting has been superb. Cut bait with 11 inch bull frog and 8 inch weasel has been very good as well. Yesterday fishing off of Port Credit between 130 adn 180 feet of water saw over 20 shots taken with 4 or 5 mature kings boated. Core was OK with 15 colour being the best, dipsies fired between 110 and 200 back with SD and fly and The rigger bite was good with cut bait on an 8 inch weasel. Back at it this afternoon. Our biggest so far is 28.14 currently in 10th place of the Sun Derby week 3. |

| Weekedn Report | Monday, July 09 2007 09:52 am |
| Well the salmon hunt has begun.
Saturday was a great day on the water, and we worked the same water we had been all week. It wasn't as fast and furious but a steady pick. Saturday morning we ended up with 3 around 20 but couldnt get anything over 22. The afternoon was teh same as the west wind really cooled the water down. 2 good kings and a bunch of smaller fish. Big Urns continued to be hot as well as Silver Streak Hot Lobsters in both the 28 and mag size. Sunday was a sketchy day on the weather adn we cancelled all the trips. Back at it again this week, lookin for the big gy. |

| Fishing Tues, Wed | Thursday, July 05 2007 09:31 am |
| The past couple days have seen some very good fishing off of Port Credit, with the offshore winds, the baitfish got pushed in real tight and there is a good concentration of kings and rainbows in between 50-100 fow. Tuesday an afternoon trip saw us go about 18 for 24 with the biggest pushing 25 ponds. Blk and Purple Big Urn off the rigger 33 feet down was the most concistent as well as a 28 size hot lobster silver streak. On wed morning, we worked the same water and a little more to the west as some of the biger fish had been pushed that way. We lost count but my guess would be somewhere around 15 in the boat for about 30 hooked. Rigger with the blk/ppl big urn was good again, as well as a wire diver with an nk spook flasher spoon.
Pictures should be updated soon. |

| Weekend Report | Monday, June 25 2007 01:46 pm |
| Well we were in Port Darlington all weekend for the tournament. After three days straight of solid prefishing, we thought we were good to go. Well the reality of it is, its still fishing and things change. Saturday morning when it counted all our fish from the week before had moved. We ran around trying to find the pod, but could not locate. We ended up in 450 feet of water, and took some shots but could not hook up and ran out of time. We ended up at 1/4 for the day and way out of contention. Sunday was a bit better of a day, we got our box of 5 fish and also dropped a couple of pigs just before the day eneded. Helped us move up a FEW spots. We are back into Port Credit this week, and from the reports we have recieved there is some good fishing going on. | |

| We brought the boat over to Bowmanville yesterday to set up for the weekend tournament. Stopped powering in about Oshawa and trolled the rest of the way towards Darlington. We found a really good concentration of bait and hooks, and there are a lot of fish around. It is setting up to be a good weekend I believe. We were suppose to get out today, but the lake is rocking and rolling so we will be back at it tomorrow in the AM.

The cores were hot today. 7 core, 11 core, and 5 core all did dammage, with blue dolphin silver streak mag, Moneky puke, and mixed veggies. wire divers back anywhere from 120 to 160 were productive adn the rigger shots between 35 and 45.

| We headed out yesterday morning for a morning trip. What a great morning to be on the water, absoultey no wind and sunny skies. We headed west right away and set up off the cements in 120 feet of water. 5 Minutes in the High diver with a Hawg Wild silver streak fired back 120. For the next bit it was slow and we picked up a fish off the rigger down 45 and a nice bow off of 8 core. At about 9, we found a good pocket of active fish between 170 and 200 feet of water well west. Pretty much anything was working, 5 coulour, 7 colour, riggers at 33 and 45 and wire divers set back 66 and 75 feet. The final count for the morning ended up being 11/17 with a mixed bag of rainbows kings and cohos. | |

| Well, the fishing has remained average the past week. Boats are going out and picking at a few kings here and a few kings there. It won't be long untill we see a good concentration of Kings off of Port Credit that should stay for the remainder of the year. We will be out next on Sunday, so will post a detailed report then.

| May 29 Update | Tuesday, May 29 2007 10:42 pm |
| Well we were out last Friday, and the fishing was slow out of St. Catharines. We ended up 4 of 6 just west of the mouth, fish were comming off of super mag dipsies back 225 and 240 with silver streak spoons. Hearing that the fishing was hot back on the North Shore, we headed for home adn returned to Port Credit.
The fishing was good on the weekend, but todays trip was slow. We fished off of Oakville, covering the water from the cement plant to Bronte in and out from 100 to 200 feet of water. Ended up 1 for 3. Lost a nice one on 9 colours of lead with a mag monkey puke silver streak, lost one off of a rigger on the slider on a small size green alewive silver streak down 59, and finally got one in the boat on 12 colours of lead with a mountain dew nbk spinny with a #106 A-tom-mik fly. Marked alot of good fish, but they just didnt want to go. Lets hope it picks up soon. |

| Headed out in the afternoon, and seems like the strong east winds that picked up midday shut the fish down a bit. we worked the water hard from almost the bar, to dalhousie in and out from 160 to 230. Ended up at 6 for 10. 1 Fish on the rigger, 1 fish on a dipsy set back 205 feet, and the rest off of core, 7 colour 9 colour and 300 feet of copper. Stairway to heaven lyman was the hot bait, with the rest of the fish comming on silver streak spoons mostly mag size. mixed veggies, monkey puke and green alewive.
Still a ton of fish around though. |

| Well we just got back from another crazy morning in St. catharines. On the water at about 5:45 and the action started right away with two doubles. All nice big teenager kings. We worked the shelf between Dalhousie and Weller in and out from 120 to 250 feet of water. Fish were all coming on Mag silver streak spoons, Green Dolphin, Hawg Wild, Mixed Veggies and Monkey Puke. Riggers set at 45 and 55 feet, and wire dipsies back 180 and 205 feet. The fished seemed to be hitting light today, and that caused for a low percentage, but the final count of the day was like 10 for 25.
Another great morning on Lake Ontario. |

| Well we headed out this morning with our lucky customer, Tom Jenkings aboard. Tom always brings good fishing with him and we were hoping for the same today. Set up in 190 feet of water and trolled out. It was slow for about the first half hour but after that things heated up and didnt really slow down. THe final count was 22 for 28, all salmon with a variety of sizes. The biggest was 22.5 pounds. Fish were comming off of dipsies set on a 2 setting back 105 and 120 feet with Silver Streak mag spoons, greasy chicken and monkey puke. After about 9 am, the riggers heated up. Blue dolphin Silver Streak mag was on fire today.
It is a great time of year to be on the water. There are tons of fish around, and it is a steady bite all day. |

| The fish have shown up | Friday, May 11 2007 12:40 pm |
| Well,
The fishing this past few days in St. catharines has been absolutley nuts. Fishin the deep water, with silver streak mags off of riggers and dipsies has been producing huge numbers of fish. Wednesday night, with just 2 people on board, in 3 hours saw 13 fish boated, all kings- between 10 and 17 pounds. These fish are feisty, and going for huge runs after hook ups. If you can get down to St. Catharines for a charter, we highly recomend it as this will be some of the finest fishing we experience all year. |
