Just wondering if it's possible to find any fish? The barrier seems like it would provide good structure and possible spawning habitat.

Its pretty shallow and gets busy with the rowing club and the dragon boaters. Its worth fishing when you get nearer the Ontario place end from just before where it turns the corner to through past the area under the bridges. There are decent sized Pike to be caught in the weed beds. A few good sized carp can usually be found in the canals and the lagoon on the far side. Lots of PErch and panfish in the summer too.

I wonder then if the shallows along from the Humber are good for pike spawning? Or is it just too sandy/muddy for that?

I was also thinking of wading out to the barrier in the summer and drop-shotting for small mouth on the deeper outer edge. Plus there are always cormorants and gulls diving near there. What are your thoughts?
