Brighton Update

[JMB]

A bit of a rookie to Salmon/Trout Fishing on Lake Ontario.

Been venturing out of Brighton Bay to Nicholson Island/Scotch Bonnet & back to Proctor Point on calm days in my 16.5 ft Lowe / 50 Merc.

No luck so far but marking all sorts of bait fish. Using Dipsys & Downrigger.

Any tips / suggestions as to lures / systems / depths would be welcome.

Any Lake trout in this area?

Is there a preferred channel for listening in on fishing conversations while on the water?

Thanks to all who offer any advice!

I usually fish out of Ashbridges bay/Port credit. Green flies and spoons usually produce. 100-120fow@40-60ft.

MC Rockets are a hot bait of this year

Brighton's been good to me this year, I'm a rookie. It's slowed down quite a bit but we're getting big fish. Yesterday we got a big salmon with a lamprey attached to it, the fish had zero fight in it. We're getting lots of hits on green spindoctors and flies and anchovies.
