fishman1 164 Report post Posted July 28, 2015 What happened to taking from the Nipigon?Jay i believe the locals got fed up with the salmon association taking fish from their river. And voiced their disapproval.along with the local MNR. And the fact that the river is producing more natural fish than the hatchery. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fishingfinn 42 Report post Posted August 6, 2015 Went to black bay on Monday, landed 5 salmon and 3 lake trout between 11 and 4. Lost a few others. All the salmon were 5-7 lbs. We were fishing 100+ FOW with lines 25-50ft. Northern king monkey pukes seemed to be the ticket. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jelly Belly 86 Report post Posted August 6, 2015 I'll be fishing again pretty soon. Had to take a break for abit there. This year I don't fish in the day time no more. I go out in morning when it's still dark enough I have to use flash light to set up. Fish till about 9 or ten am. Or evening I'll go out after 6. I've spent way to much on gas over the last few years fishing them in daytime. Now it's morn and evening only. Anyway that's what I do. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Porkchop21 34 Report post Posted August 6, 2015 Finally heading to black bay Saturday morning for my first time for salmon. Got the downriggers mounted and good to go. Should I buy flashers and use them or they not needed? Also, what do I use and how do I tie up a leader for the spoons? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fishman1 164 Report post Posted August 8, 2015 Launch at trout bay and drown some lures. Any shoreline. There not much difference in mileage to go south towards the border or to black bay. And far more fish in black bay.Good luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Junior 5 Report post Posted August 10, 2015 My scale was bouncing around 33 lbs as the fish wasn't willing to stop shaking so lets be conservative and say around 30 lbs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tbayfinn 47 Report post Posted August 10, 2015 Nothing but 2 fatty Siscowets on Black Bay yesterday. The Squaw Bay launch sure is a disaster when busy. One cuddy boat taking up most of the space at the main dock (if you can call it that) and commercial fisherman taking up the other. Time for somebody to invest some money both there and Silver Islet for some decent docks and parking. I guess that's what you get in an unorganized township though. Hopefully this National Marine Conservation Area designation will bring in some government money..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
