There is an expression from past, "Fish stacked so thick that you could walk across their backs . . ." Great to see all the tourists to Port Hope. Even better to see the clean banks of the river! Thanks Pete!
@@frankgallimore5166 not for long sadly these are stocked fish and since they can’t be fished and they are not stocking them anymore the race will no longer fight to stay alive 5-7 years there will be no salmon again you take away the fisherman you take away the fish sadly in this case but yes back in the day this is how the Atlantic’s would be but the run off from toronto poisoned the food source so they stocked kings but didn’t realize stocked fish do not naturally reproduce well so they will have to continue stocking witch back in the day to much work until the fishing licence came along that the only reason those fish are there and the hard work and millions of dollars that fisherman spent that now they can’t even use because of Karen’s
I remember all the rivers but the Don river down town runing full of fish . They used to look like that when i wss twenty . I am almost 53 . So, not that long ago . I quit fishing because of pressure. For how many are in this video is noting to how packed it used to be with fisher men . I think we all made the choice collectivly to quit . Because you could not even get a sopt for miles of river . Shoulder to shoulder all rods . It is awesome to people watch this event and not fish . Bless our water with abunance .
Once they introduced the Pacific salmon to please the sports fishermen that was the beginning of the ruin of the great speckled and brown trout fishing that you could do in the Ganaraska and many of the other rivers in Northumberland County. It's a shame!
Water and soil are bad for your health in Port Hooe. Its still not Clraned up there. Check Google Out. I wouldnt even swim or in That water never mind eat fish From there.😮
@WealthWithMax recorded him. Told him I was calling the cops and mnr and he started packing up insisting it was legal. Tried the mnr reporting number and theyr closed till tuesday. Cops get pissed when ya report that stuff. I need a local mnr guys cell number.
Salmon watching brings many people ,One good thing is they show respect to the river and don't litter .Not sure what this will look like when the river opens ,
