position Canada brought to you in part
0:32
by stern some light jacket experts Ram
0:37
trucks
0:37
nothing works harder than a ram Castrol
0:41
more than just oil is liquid engineering
0:44
and us real when performance means
0:47
everything
0:48
the cool water periods of spring and
0:51
fall are awesome season sufficient
0:52
spring gives us a chance to grab the
0:54
rods and reels out of the garage and
0:55
finally get some open water fall is a
0:58
time when the fish turn on and the water
0:59
skiers wakeboarders and tubers vacate
1:01
the waters essentially leaving it all to
1:03
us come late fall though the plummeting
1:08
water temperatures to make fishing
1:09
tougher day by day oh you had a yeah
1:15
there is a pattern however that can
1:17
transform the frigid waters of late fall
1:19
and winter and turn that water into a
1:21
virtual oasis teeming with millions of
1:23
baitfish and almost every species of
1:25
game fish in the lake
1:30
today I'm fishing the warm water
1:32
discharge of a hydro plants hydro has
1:35
been warning people hydro dams getting
1:37
close to it and and fishing in areas
1:39
hosted people fish in hydro dams and
1:41
discharge areas and all that stuff
1:43
they're not saying don't do it they're
1:45
saying be safe about it right you see a
1:47
sign up over there do not enter beyond
1:49
that point that is dangerous water up
1:51
there they don't want you in there so
1:53
I'm back a bit and of all of those will
1:55
work from here and further back I'll
1:57
work from here right up to the whatever
1:59
I don't see fish anymore because
2:00
basically the water is so clear so far
2:02
so they've just got here I've seen I've
2:04
seen a lot of smallmouth bass I've seen
2:06
shad and then I've seen 14 million
2:09
minnows so these fish aren't necessarily
2:12
up in the dangers water to begin with
2:14
they're here looking at this bait all
2:15
those bait down here so that's what you
2:17
got a concentrate on you just basically
2:18
use your head stay away from the stay
2:20
away from the dangerous areas listen to
2:23
obey the sign because you can get fine
2:25
too and you get a heavy fine
2:26
if you're caught inside posted fences
2:29
signs buoys or safety booms you could be
2:32
fined up to 2,000 bucks stay clear stay
2:34
safe isn't a money grab it's simply a
2:37
message saying to anglers a fish isn't
2:39
worth a life
2:41
that's something small Mo's I think
2:45
Holly I think on a jigging spoon we're
2:48
gonna a little smaller I think yeah
2:52
why has a big guy he's not like always a
2:54
big one all there's a giant down there
2:56
with them just look at him and said what
2:58
are you doing fool wow that's too bad
3:03
man
3:03
you get a little rat and there's five
3:06
and six pounders sitting over there on
3:08
that digging spoon do that torque that
3:14
just I was really working it
3:16
aggressively it might be a ticket
3:18
hearing or try that I got to get one of
3:20
these big ones I got a feeling one of
3:22
that but I can eat that one the one was
3:24
beside it was huge
3:25
it's absolutely huge my plan is they hit
3:29
some warm water offal in the morning
3:30
when the lake is common fishable I've
3:32
got a ton of different artificial and
3:33
live baits as well as an array of rods
3:35
and reels since is the chance of
3:37
catching five six or maybe even seven
3:39
different species of fish I know there
3:41
are a bunch of small mode and pike in
3:43
the area so those are my main quarry
3:44
anything else
3:45
that's a bonus so that feels fly summer
3:49
ganders those things I guarantee are are
3:51
eating more metal than this guy I can't
3:53
believe it I'm seeing the Giants I'm
3:55
getting a little guys I'm just going to
3:57
throw this little float set up almost
4:00
like the steelhead guys do but he's got
4:01
a little piece of worm on there got
4:03
about a five and a half foot lead on
4:05
there's six pound test the leader a
4:08
little float so let's write that too I
4:10
tried a little bit everything cuz I know
4:11
there's so many species in here you come
4:13
in here it's going to drive your nuts
4:14
and you can fish in here if you can
4:15
fission you're going to glad you crazy
4:17
trying to work these fish and figure out
4:18
what they're biting so you bring a
4:20
little bit of everything and hope for
4:21
the best
4:26

5:31
wicked that is maybe the latest no it's
5:36

5:39
it is the coolest large boat they've
5:42
ever caught I'll tell you that oh I love
5:45
you fish I love look at this hook in and
5:49
out you can't see from that black spot I
5:51
believe it's from the cold weather these
5:53
fish get take out these black markings
5:54
and I believe it's from the cold weather
5:57
but I met to be told that by biologists
5:59
I got plunked three times I'm sure he
6:02
hit it the first time I don't know what
6:04
hit the second time because was a big
6:05
little shad hanging around you have no
6:10
idea how happy I am with that fish it's

6:30
freaked out a little bit
6:35
look at them now look at them you are a
6:39
sweet thing the areas I'm fishing today
6:43
are Frenchman's Bay and the Pickering
6:44
Nuclear Generating Station nestled in
6:46
the eastern portion of the Greater
6:47
Toronto Area ours is locally known the
6:49
GTA one of the most awesome parts of
6:52
fishing the figuring this plant is the
6:53
water clarity upon arrival you'll be
6:55
amazed at seeing fish of all sorts and
6:57
sizes swimming in all directions
6:59
none of them they're small multiplied
7:00
they're huge the giant all the flowing
7:05
water of a power plant is the first
7:07
element as the white these places
7:08
attract so many fish come to Coldwater
7:10
period though and water temperatures
7:12
become equal to the flow as an example
7:14
today I'm fishing in late November
7:16
something just slugged me lake
7:19
temperatures are hitting into the 40's
7:20
Fahrenheit the new plant is pumping out
7:22
water into the 60s that's a 20 degree
7:24
plus water temp difference that's why
7:26
the fish are here especially going to
7:29

this area may be one of the best fish

17:52
mean wide assortment of bass minnows
17:55
worms and roll will cover the natural

careful to get to today's great fishing
18:06
area say highway 401 to the Brock Road
18:08
