Lake Erie water from the Niagara River and Welland Canal is warmer and it holds along the shoreline to the Eastward. It does not entice the salmon to hold there.

In the west coast mountain streams the cold water comes from glacier and snow melts which we do not have here until winter snows fall. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
