Weekend recap fishing report Well we have had a decent little window weather lately and things are getting good. Lake Ontario fishing continues to be pretty good currently. The water is 39-40 degrees along most of the Niagara shoreline. Brown Trout fishing the last while has been very good when of course you find the right colored water. A mix of spoons & stick baits are getting it done.   A 1 color lead core with spoons has been a very good set up for many anglers. Popular spoon patterns vary with water conditions but Sea Sick, Angry Bird, Mongoose,...

They don't winter way deep offshore like Chinook and some other species. So whenever the weather safely allows for you to get out, the browns are there! A couple things though. As the water temp warms into the high 30s...

  What to do for Fishing opportunities in mid Feb these days? Its been some weird weather for fishing lately for sure. With little to no ice around here, it has local anglers wondering what to target and where. No doubt, Trout are always a popular target this time of year.
