Pink Salmon Trip N. Channel Lake Huron... anyone want to go?

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Pink Salmon Trip N. Channel Lake Huron... anyone want to go?

Post by JimW »

Hello everyone I have not been on fish-hawk for awhile, hope to be on regularly again.

Being an odd numbered year this is the year the pink salmon run up the rivers and streams in Northern Lake Huron in larger numbers.

I am hoping to make a trip up there this September for a weekend to try my luck at catching a few pinks. Pink salmon are a Pacific salmon, the smallest salmon species, most are 2-4 pounds, but are lots of fun to catch on light tackle.

We would be fishing the Thessalon, Blind River, Algoma Mills areas from shore usually casting small spoons with spinning gear.

I have not been up there since 2009 I believe, but we caught a bunch of fish that last trip.

The plan would be to drive to Blind River Friday after work..... catch a few hours sleep in the vehicle Friday night..... start fishing at first light on Saturday.... fish a few different spots on Saturday.

Get a cheap motel room Saturday night fish a couple different spots Sunday morning and start heading back to Ottawa area around noon on Sunday.

Looking for 1 or 2 guys or gals interested in making the trip.

Looking at the weekend of September 11-13 or 18-20th.

Any takers?

Hey Jim: I would have taken you up on this but I will be away camping that time. I had a blast on Lake O with you that one time and would have enjoyed your company again but I will be with the family.

Good luck on your trip.
Fishing isn't a matter of life and death....
It's much more important.
