It's still winter here, though it's relatively warm (above freezing at least) and we're looking for either rainbow trout or steelhead trout. We're in the mighty Niagara River fishing from shore using bobbers and roe bags.

You guys have it so easy! Where I fish you need clear slip bobbers to rig a certain leader line to a certain split shorting pattern that will attach to a certain hook with a certain knot

@bubbspelch1134 3 года назад

Then move

@adamwillick6878 Год назад

That’s what 95% of people run here too

@Handberrydea 6 лет назад

Very informative

@christophermesquita1147 3 года назад

Pool that's atleast 20ft deep and possibly stacked with fish🤔 I'm gonna fish 4 feet down with a bobber. I was amazed it worked

@cc-ty3gg 7 лет назад

thanks! I appreciate the tip..look forward to the next video..

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

thanks Carlos and good luck on the water :)

I have been fishing Lower Niagara river for over 30 years. It is important for anyone going down there to always bring a buddy. It is so easy to fall and hurt yourself. My friend broke his ankle and if he was alone he probably would have died of hypothermia because he couldn't climb up the bank to get away from the river. Also up until the end of November the water level will rise about 8 feet within half and hour starting around 11am. So watch where you are standing.

@travisellingwood6587 Год назад

is there a way to know the raise times of the river?

@golo5000 7 лет назад

So glad you are keeping it....nice pic this is in between the falls and the whirlpool....

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

Glad you enjoyed this episode and this is just past the Whirlpool :)

@ethanthaut9227 7 лет назад

Glad you didn't slip and fall in - that water looks pretty cold! Thanks for sharing, I've learned a lot from your videos.

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

...very cold water indeed :) I was being very careful and safe

@TheCerealReviewShow 6 лет назад

I love that rock.... fish there a lot.

@BillOfAllTrades2016 6 лет назад

mohowe how do you get there. What is near it? I have been to niagara many times and can never find it

@cooltech73 4 года назад

Hi. Where is it exactly do you fish . Would like to take a ride down there this week. Thnks

@fishfeverwithjoshtaylor3904 7 лет назад

Awesome! Beautiful fish, and great scenery in the background!

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

It really is a beautiful place to fish - or just hike :)

@CdnPoli 7 лет назад

Size 4 Oct hooks are my go to hook for most situations.

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

Thanks for the feedback :) It's a good size hook for many applications :)

@bkjeong4302 3 года назад

Any tips to targeting lake and brown trout from shore in the Niagara in December and into next spring?

@roman1222 7 лет назад

beautiful

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

Winter Steelhead really are a beautiful fish :)

@jordanmckibbon6686 7 лет назад

Nice work Ivo! I was surprised to see how shallow you were running your roe bag for a place like the Niagara River. I'll have to stick to the smaller little bay areas next time I'm out there! Thanks for sharing!

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

Glad you enjoyed this steelhead episode Jordan and thanks for writing in :)

@catchandeat 7 лет назад

This one's great guys! Perfect eating size, waiting for the gravlax recipe

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

Glad you liked it and stay tuned as I will be trying to get Antonio to share his favorite gravlax recipe with us :) Episode to follow in the near future

@FishingPleasures 7 лет назад

Nice one! I'll be hitting the rivers here in Michigan soon for these guys. The heavy rain we had has all the rivers blown out right now. Making for tough fishing.

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

Weather does have a huge impact on fishing...hope things clear up soon :)

@wnyfishergirl 7 лет назад

Great to see you Steelhead fishing again!!!! I'm surprised Antonio wasn't there Steelhead fishing is starting to pick up again now but I've been catching a lot of Browns and there is still kings hanging out weird for this time of year

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

Interesting to hear that there are still kings around - thanks for writing in :)

@finesse_angler514 7 лет назад

awesome video! 😆

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

Glad you enjoyed this winter steelhead episode and thanks for taking time to write :)

@56Axis 7 лет назад

that's my favorite fish, steelhead/trout..they love shrimp too. :)

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

Thanks for the shrimp tip :)

@l.i.archer5379 7 лет назад

Have you tried using a slip bobber? You could be fishing with a 4-ft long fluorocarbon leader tied to braid with either a double uni-knot or alberto knot, and that knot would become your slip bobber stop. This way, you don't have 4 feet of line hanging off the end of your rod and you can reel in most of the line.

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

That is very true...a slip bobber does make it much easier :)

@williamhenryoutdoors8638 7 лет назад

Nice video

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

Thanks for writing in and so glad you enjoyed this episode :)

@iqbahm 2 года назад

Nice catch. Have never been there for fishing. Do you have any suggestion for good spots where not much hiking involved? Thanks.

@tipheymichelle 7 лет назад

Thanks Ivo, your videos are awesome. I want to go out to the niagara region in Ontario to fish soonest but I don't know the area at all. Pls can you recommend area a new angler like me can go fishing?

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

Hi Tiffany...easiest place to go would be the Queenston Boat Ramp (plenty of great fishing from shore) or the Whirlpool which also has great fishing and lots of room, but it is a hike to get down there and then a good hike back up :)

@tipheymichelle 7 лет назад

Awesome. Thanks.

@TheMinimalistFisherman 7 лет назад

Gave ya a like and a full watch - took stones to go out in weather and water like that. The background scenery is beautiful... I'd love to see it in the fall!

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

Thanks for such great feedback and honored for the like and full watch :) Good luck on the water

@TheMinimalistFisherman 7 лет назад

Ditto fellas! Tight lines.

@TheMinimalistFisherman 7 лет назад

@hardtomello364 4 года назад

How did you get down there I don’t fish the Niagara river because it’s a bit of a struggle to get to places to fish and the few easy spots are absolutely crowded with people

@thundermistlures 4 года назад

usually there are a lot of people, but if you go to the whirlpool, there is plenty of room so you can spread out :)

@PREPFORIT 7 лет назад

Good fishin' ! I usually use octopus hooks for every freshwater species. ( Hope you were Down from the Falls !😦 )

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

...yes....this was the lower Niagara River, which is don=wn stream from the falls :)

@BillOfAllTrades2016 7 лет назад

Hello. I was just wondering how to get down to that spot where you are standing.

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

There is parking off the parkway but it is a hike to get down there :)

@outdoorsman9384 5 лет назад

Hay Ivo,,your fishing four foot under bobber,,how deep is water,,what if you want to fish deeper water do adjust depth,but how can you go down ten to fifteen feat,with bobber it will get in way of fishing rod guides,thank you

@thundermistlures 5 лет назад

to get to deeper water, you can use a longer rod and thus have a longer lead - or - you can use a slip bobber system :)

@gregjordan8060 7 лет назад

I live south of buffalo would like to start fishing the lower niagara , any hot spots that you can recommend??

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

Hi Greg.....you can fish the shoreline in Lewiston...great fishing there :)

@gregjordan8060 7 лет назад

Thanks, I'll be up there Sunday and thanks for sharing

@jamiemcbane 6 лет назад

Thundermist Lures hi is that where you are in the video? Lewiston? Thanks Jamie from capreol Ontario

@backtofishingdogheart8841 5 лет назад

I fish lower river often. If you would like few tips id be happy to set u up.

@chrome_is_gold 7 лет назад

would you recommend this tactic for small streams during the steelhead spawn?

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

Absolutely yes :) Very effective method

@IgneousEuro 7 лет назад

Have you ever fished near the Whirlpool or do you recommend going further down stream from there?

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

Hi Mike...the whirlpool is a great area to fish - I go there often :)

@cc-ty3gg 7 лет назад

really nice video..can u recommend an area of the river in Buffalo.. Thanks!

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

HI Carlos....in Buffalo, if you can find an area to fish between the peace bridge and the railroad bridge, it would be idea :)

@hippiehippie7652 7 лет назад

Wow man you've got specs :D

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

LOL....I usually take them off for filming but this time forgot :)

@brakie44820 7 лет назад

A good meal indeed.. Yum-o! Starting next month the annual Maumee River madness will happen when the Wallys start their spawn run up the Maumee River.

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

Sounds like great fishing - good luck out there :)

@outdoorsman9384 3 года назад

Hay Evo your only 4 feet down do thay come up if water is 12 to 15 feet or would you adjust it?

@thundermistlures 3 года назад

they will come up, but the closer you can get your bait to the bottom, the better your chances of getting a bite :)

@LouTube411 7 лет назад

I am hoping to give Niagara a shot this year. Question: How do spinners fare on the river?

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

Actually, very good - perhaps I will do an episode someday :)

@LouTube411 7 лет назад

I will look forward to watching. Thank you and great job with these videos.

@HeartOfMetalx11 6 лет назад

Caught two pike and a tank crappie on your misty minnow today :). Where can I buy more I snagged it does petes have em?

@thundermistlures 6 лет назад

sounds like a great day of fishing...very nice Shayne!! Petes has the stingeye spinner and the t-turn, but does not have the Misty Minnow....those will need to be bought on line :)

@GoodRedBlackRatio 7 лет назад

Can I ask a dumb question? How on earth do you use a bobber in the current like that? The times I've tried on my river, it just whooshes the whole set up right back to shore. How do you keep it out there away from the shoreline?

@supersabrosinho 7 лет назад

I was wondering the same thing

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

In this case, there is a bit of a bay, so the current runs from point to point creating a current edge which allows my bobber to stay away from the shore line :)

@BillOfAllTrades2016 7 лет назад

Where do you park to get there.

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

FOr this area, there is public parking available along the parkway...one at the whirlpool and the other at the Glen :)

@bassmaster2009 7 лет назад

Nice catch Ivo:) By the way, is trout open all year on Niagra river?

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

....for rainbows/steelhead on the Canadian side, yes :)

@bassmaster2009 7 лет назад

Thanks Ivo...you are the best

@cameronjohnson2815 3 года назад

Any driving directions to this spot from toronto?

@sinarezvani4993 6 лет назад

Hey Ivo, I'm such a fan of your channel, I was wondering if you could share this hotspot from the niagara river on the map, i would be really thankful. thanks again

@thundermistlures 6 лет назад

Hi Sina - hard to explain where this is, but it is down stream from the Glen....much easier to go to the whirlpool as the fishing there is just a good, if not better :)

@italiantroutaholic8926 7 лет назад

what size egg sack was that??dime or nickle??

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

...closer to a nickel :) Salmon roe

@morts7037 7 лет назад

Might be going tomorrow for some bigger trout, I live in the buffalo area any tips on where to go and what to use for bait at this time in the season?

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

most of the trout would have moved out of the river now, so fishing the lake would be best and hard baits and spoons work great :)

@steelhead197 5 лет назад

Nice “BOBBER”.....lol 🇨🇦

@italiantroutaholic8926 5 лет назад

inside current = Seams?

@thundermistlures 5 лет назад

...yes :)

@heroryan7859 4 года назад

What spot is this

@thundermistlures 4 года назад

Lower Niagara River, Canadian Side :)

@ermannodangelo1062 7 лет назад

Whers the recipe.

@Matthast865 7 лет назад

He'll post it on this channel in the coming weeks i'm sure, he always has great recipes.

@thundermistlures 7 лет назад

HI Ermanno....just as the Matt Hatter indicated, I will definitely be posting the video, but it will be a separate episode and I'd like to get Antonio to share his favorite gravlax recipe as well :)
