First pier salmon... I estimate 30-35 lbs. She hit between 8:00 and 8:30 and gave one hell of a fight.

Great Catch my Friend!

Well Done.



I`d give it 20 lbs. But who`s counting.

Anything over 20 is a killer.



GO GET SOME MORE KILLER!

Thanks for all the compliments. I'll give some background info... I've been fishing this spot on/off for the past 2-3 weeks and only on that night did I catch a fish. I have seen others catch some fish from there, but there are no real late-night crowds like there are at Port Credit - so, if you want some breathing room, probably a good place to go. No one as far as I know bottom bounces there, everyone is usually chucking spoons or J13's. I caught mine on a spoon. I was told that a lot of fish like to hit earlier in the day (12pm-4pm) which is sort of surprising. Definitely worth checking out!

One problem I will mention are the boaters, they will drive right into the area you're casting with no hesitation - these moments upset me and I try to let them know that I'm fishing there with a stern angry face and possibly a shaking fist. Just keep that in mind, but I think a lot of sea-doers will be wrapping up since the temperatures are dropping. I also have another photo of the fish where I was photo-bombed by some unknown woman - beware of this as well.

Nice Fice and thanks for sharing...

Never been down to the Humber and might go down there and see if I get lucky...
You're right about credit as there are guys shoulder-to-shoulder bottom fishing and chucking spoons/j-13's

Drove down to the Erin Dale Park las tnight around 10pm, looked like a fish market at the broken bridge...lol
