Catching Salmon from the Credit River!

- Did some fishing at the Credit River in the hopes of getting an early steelhead. Did not find any, but found some aggressive salmon willing to bite the spinner and had a great day overall. Caught on a Size 3 Silver Mepps
When a fish spools you down river 😂 epic. Like i say your lucky to even see it again lol let alone catch it 🎉
Definitely easier to handle with a spinning reel than a centerpin 😂
Good to see the salmons biting in the river. Great job!
Thanks! 😎
Great job but a friendly advice: when a huge fish like that is pulling drag you can gently apply some pressure on the reel with your hand to even put the pressure on your reel. You got really lucky to have landed both because it wasn’t a shaggy area. If there was a snag or even log in the water it would have been game over for you dude!
Appreciate the feedback!
There’s no point in doing that…. As he said 8lb test, plus you have drag for a reason there’s no need to put your hand on the spool to slow the fish down. Why would I do that when my reel does it for me
Thanks for sharing man! #tightlines
great video really enjoyed watching it , you should try and pinch down the barbs on your treble hooks, specially if you plan to release it make for a quick and save release back to the water
If this guy is in the Peel Region, using a treble at all is illegal.
1. Do you NEED a license to go fishing?
2. Where can i buy the best pole, and what bait is the best?
3. Is there a fear that crocodile/alligator may suddenly come and kill you?
4. Can you catch fish all year round?
My advice would be to read the regulations as all the information is there
Congrats on your catches!! So much fun to watch. ✅
Thanks!
Really nice fish! I was thinking of doing some winter fly fishing for some trout in the river and was very surprised by the size of the chinooks people pull out of there
Thanks! They're tons of fun
No they weren’t snagged, for sure they bite sometimes…. They usually eat when they first come in than stop. That second one looked maybe fresh, but I doubt the first. Nice salmon.
they'll bite lures consistently around the mouth of the credit/humber in the marinas etc.
How could I be able to get there. I get it if you want to keep it a secret though. And are you going this year salmon run fishing? I follow your fish brain btw
good fishing
what cord did you use? How many Lb
8 lb mono
Great vid! They will DEF hit spinners. Try spoons and plugs as well... Just be careful of your hand placement on the rod. Keep them on the cork/handle. Going up on the rod itself is just asking for it to snap or blow apart.
Yeah I never do that with my more expensive rods. Figured since it's an ugly stik it could handle it 😂. Appreciate the feedback though
@@SpinnerFisherman hahahahahahahaha!!! Good one!! But the $$$$ ones SHOULD handle that!!
Was that south of the Dundas bridge?? If it is … your in the sanctuary!!!.
South of the Dundas bridge is not a sanctuary
Where is this on the river? Great video, you think i could catch em with spoons?
Not sure about spoons. Location is in another comment, but there's a bunch of spots in that section that have salmon in them
It’s very common to catch salmon on spinners.
Interesting. I guess it's just not common in my area
@@SpinnerFisherman lots of guys are just fishing for salmon for the roe. I’m a lure fisherman and I’ve always learned how to get them on lures!
@@justinburkart8570 yeah roe seems to be the more popular option around here
Hey, I’m interested in salmon fishing, and I know the area you are fishing. I have yet to go out for it, primarily bass fishing. Just wanted to know if treble hooks are allowed? I read in the regulations for zone 16 specific to salmon said you can only use single pointed barbless hooks. Just would like to know if that’s true or not? I don’t want to use the wrong gear either.
Way upstream they are not allowed but in this spot they are. Where specifically do you see they're not allowed for salmon?
@@SpinnerFisherman Ontario Fishing Regulations for Zone 16
Credit River and its tributaries - Town of Caledon in Regional Municipality of Peel, Upstream of Old Baseline Road
Only artificial lures may be used
Only one single-pointed barbless hook may be used
@@MrMarz-kp7kc that's way upstream so this spot is good
@@SpinnerFisherman good to know appreciate the info, maybe I’ll see you out there during the fall season trying to catch my first salmon. Cheers bro
@@SpinnerFisherman also without giving away the spot bc I’m sure it’s highly pressured…you are by UofT right?
was there on sunday ! know exactly where this is !
Where is it??
Hi nice video when are you going to credit river next time
@@Sandy198319 I don't live quite as close to the river as I used to, so I'm not sure...
Do you know where I can get to where you’re fishing
Credit, Humber and Bronte are the most popular salmon rivers in Ontario
Hey man, rlly nice fish. Mind dropping the spot? or at least the genral area or town or something? Me and my friend have been looking for a good steeelheaf spot to hit up. If you want to keep it hidden i can completely understand but please if you don’t mind help us out.
There's a certain section open year-round. I can't remember which highway it is, but there's a few different good spots from there to the end of the park
@@SpinnerFisherman mind telling me which park? or is that pushing it
@@michaelmis6933 it's the only public park on that river haha
@@michaelmis6933get out there and find it your self. Best way to learn.
What rod and reel are you using
6'6" ugly stik elite with a 2500 pflueger supreme
What is the best month for salmon in the credit river
Sept to Oct I think
@@SpinnerFisherman thanks 🙏
Awesome video! Which month is this?
September
@@SpinnerFisherman Awesome! This year I plan to fishing the Salmon from start to end of the river. When do you think is a good time to fish for salmon at Port Credit? First rainfall for September?
@@spago555 I'm not sure as that was my first year catching salmon haha. Apparently some fish have already moved into the river, but not 100% sure
@@SpinnerFisherman haha cool! Thanks for the inspiration man!
Great video! Where is the access for this spot??
It's in the park
What park?
Yeah
@@yevheniistrikha954
when can i see salmon in the river?
Bronte and Credit are two of the most popular spots. I think you can watch the fish at Bowmanville, but you just can't fish it due to the fish sanctuary (not 100% sure)
credit river in canada ontario ?? plz give location
Yeah
@@SpinnerFisherman what is the location what city ?
Share the location
"but salmon don't bite in rivers"
at 14:09 the salmon choked the spinner in the river I think they feed on the river as long as they are silverish once they go spawned they bite out of aggression
Got some cool footage of salmon eating the spinner at shore. Probably will upload Thursday/Friday
Said it before I could 🤜🤛
@@SpinnerFisherman nice I'll keep the notification on this time so I don't forget
which part of the credit river is this?
Are you allowed to use treble hooks?
In certain sections of the river you can
@@SpinnerFisherman You should read the regulations again for zone 16, you're not allowed trebles on the credit river upstream from Old Base Line Road, that means any part from lake ontario until basically Caledon should all be single hook on the credit river. Based on the other comments, you're by the dundas overpass that goes over the credit, which is with the no treble zone.
@@andrepond4470 why would the Dundas bridge be in the no treble zone when it's downstream of old baseline road
@@andrepond4470 I'm not sure if you were trolling me or actually misunderstand the regulations. When it says upstream of Old Base Line Road, it means above that road. That regulation also applies to single barbless hooks. I believe that they do that to protect smaller trout since they are more susceptible to damage from trebles and barbs? Also, they have signs posted with the regulations all over the park and say something like treble hooks are preferred (but not required). Tight lines!
@@SpinnerFisherman Not trolling, i've been told by tons of dudes that, also from reading the regulations myself, "upstream of old base line road" to me, is any area from old base line road until lake ontario, because that is all upstream area from old base line road. Also majority of the salmon breed in that area, and don't go much further, hence why i don't think trebles are allowed. Honestly some of the wording is pretty confusing in the regulations, my first year I thought bass opened "Saturday, June 4th" (didn't realize it was 4th saturday of june and that saturday being June 4th was just a coincidence), and it's always best to call the wild life people to make sure. I only use single-hook for salmon anyways, so only the dates affect me.
Nice video ✌🏼
Thanks! 😎
I had to subscribe when i watched one video. Looking forward to making it down there in the spring.
@@Outdoortherapy416 editing a few other steelhead videos which I'll post in the next couple weeks
Cool video bro 😎
Thanks dude
@@SpinnerFisherman hahahaha goood seeing you today 🤜🤛
@@outcastfishingtv likewise dude, you kinda caught me off guard 😂. Looking forward to seeing some more steelhead vids this fall
And that mud there is the slipperyiest mud ive ever been in in my life lol
Gotta be careful for sure
Tripple hooks are illegal to use in rivers such as credit!!! - read regulations to avoid future fines
Please do not advise other people on the regulations when you do not know them yourself. It is not illegal....
When fishing for salmon on credit river you cannot use treble hook - illegal - one guy got ticket for that cause he didnt listen too - ill call MNR on you too if i see you using it - then you try to explain it to them that you didnt know😂😂😂
@@user-px7io3fl7b you can go right ahead and call the MNR on me and I'll show him the regulations too 😂. In all fairness though, I believe that used to be the rules but it has changed in the last 5 years. Page 120 of the regulations indicates you can only use single barbless hooks on a certain portion upstream. So you are probably right that it was illegal, but the rules have changed since then
You said it - “single hooks” - single is not treble - i only start fishing 4 years ago - and i do see people get fines for treble hooks when you target salmon or trout till this day - any other fish is fine. If you are not sure call MNR yourself and ask if its ok to number is on the back of your license - other ways just keep using treble hooks and one day you will get a ticket!!!
@@user-px7io3fl7b single hooks are required upstream, not in the section I was fishing. You can read the regulations if you don't believe me. I highly doubt a CO is fining people for using treble hooks in that area. It is likely they are fining people for snagging fish, and people usually use trebles for those
You are fishing in a Sanctuary !
Check the Regulations !!!
Where is that?
@@bobjob-Nba it's in the title
@@SpinnerFisherman is the exact spot kept hidden?
@@bobjob-Nba it's in the park
@@SpinnerFisherman thank you much appreciated
Curious. Isn't that a sanctuary south of Dundas? I haven't fished in for awhile. It used to be from Dundas St bridge to the QEW bridge. Has that changed?
Yep.... After August 15th
Sorry not quite sure what you mean. It's open from highway 403 all the way to the lake year round
@@toddwillson8707 are you saying that below Dundas is closed after August 15?
@@SpinnerFisherman it's closed from Dundas to the QEW bridge. Wide open from the QEW to the mouth. It's in the regs
@@Bobsuruncle1959 this is not correct. Do not spread misinformation. This rule is not in the regulations
What time did you go?
I was there 8 am I think
@@SpinnerFisherman ah icic thanks, I went Saturday morning and the same spot was packed😂😂 so many people, kinda new to fishing and I was think of going after work not sure how it is though around 4 or 5 pm
@@kuyaq8544 yeah it's crazy on the weekend. Last week after 5 it wasn't bad, but that might change after this rain
@@SpinnerFisherman ic nice thanks for letting me know keep up the awesome vids as well👍👍
@@kuyaq8544 thanks so much! 🙌
Been to this spot 3 times already this September. Skunked every time. Of course i see my friends posting 20lb’ers, and when i get skunked!!! Nature of the game i guess😭🤦🏼♂️
Haha yeah it happens
This was so hard to watch no disrespect or anything but try not to reel against the drag
@@jaxonweir8307 was panicking since the my gear was way underpowered for the fish lol. Drag was basically doing nothing
Where on the credit river is that
Go find out
Corner Dundas Street West and Mississauga Rd.
@@jeffersonbiongcog1648 Thanks I thought it was just below erindale park
@@williamterrymasters1934so it is below erindale park? Right? Do I need a license to do fishing or nah?
@@MdjsjJdndndn Never fished before?
Watching you pull on your pole like that above your handle makes me cringe
It’s not your pole
It's an ugly stik so it should be fine
@@williamterrymasters1934 lol? Was just waiting for it to break.
@@SpinnerFisherman dummy
@@mrstreamside251 It’s his pole if he breaks it that’s his problem why would it make you cringe?
Hi..how can I contact you?
What question do u have
@@SpinnerFisherman I am new in Canada, use to do fishing in Dubai, UAE before. Need some first hand knowledge about fresh water fishing. You are really good at fishing so I just thought I should get in touch with you.
