New to fishing in Ontario

[tweedwolfscream]

You don't have to go far from Ajax at all. The various rivers of Durham Region have runs of steelhead in the spring and salmon in the fall, and some have resident brook trout in their upper reaches. The trout/salmon season of course is only the 4th saturday of April through Sept 30, but rainbows, browns and pacifics have an extended fall season in Durham south of Kingston Rd and a year-round season south of the railway... not sure if there would be anything running there now though.

If you're looking for pike, bass and panfish that you could go after now, try just about any of the harbours/lagoons/marinas along the GTA's Lake Ontario shoreline. Frenchman's Bay is popular, though I haven't figured out a good way to fish it from shore. I like Bluffer's Park in Scarborough.
