Well, it's been a long time since a post and unfotunately I havn't been able to get out fishing this season!!

I am moving next summer down by Lake Erie. Was just wondering if anyone could give me an idea of where I could find good SHORE fishing---and what I would be fishing for, around these areas----Port Burwell, Port Stanley, Long Point, Turkey Point, Port Bruce.

If this is any help, I am moving close to Tillsonburg.

Would be great if any one could let me know of any good shore fishing spots. I am looking for close to home as well as a few hours drive.

Any input would be appreciated!! Fishin-Gal

FishinGal, I live right beside TBurg and I'm always looking to meet a few new fishing partners. I get out occasionally and I'd be happy to show you the area.

What is your favorite kind of fishing? And for what? I know where most of them live. I can give ya an honest shot at them.

YOU HIT THE JACKPOT in your move as far getting some fantastic fishing with markus as your guide . Man id like to know some of Markuses home spots

Hi Marcus!! Thanks for the quick come back!! By the look of the fish your holding, you have done some pretty serious fishing!!!

Well, my hubby is already down your way and I will be, there on and off all winter but hopefully be compltely moved by the spring.

You do live really close, thats cool

We are both a little rusty in the fishing department but the last nice fish I caught was a 10 pound pickeral from the Rideau River here in Ottawa. Right now we don't have a boat so we will be looking at shore fishing for now. When you get out of the swing of things, like us, any kind of fishing is welcome!! Pickeral, pike, bass, perch---you name it!! And a good fight is always fun as well!! (with this fish, that is)

New fishing partners would be great!!!! Look forward to meeting!!!

Ice fishing is also another option.

This is sure a tall order. Hope you can help

A 10lb eye out of the Rideau is true trophy! Well done.

I think you guys will be happy with the quality of fishing in this area. Lots of ice fishing to do too...mostly perch with the occasional pike.

There's lots of shore opportunities all around the bay. Maybe you guys could get together with Pink Lady and me this winter far an ice fish on the bay and we could set you up with a few shore casting spots and plan a few days on the boat too.

If you like Trout fishing in the creeks, the local tribs (Big Creek, Youngs and the Otter) are all seeing nice runs of big steelhead right now.

You're gonna love it.

Thanks for the invite Markus!!!! You and Pink Lady sound like really great people!!

Are ya sure you's can handle a couple of rusty ole buckets like us??

I think your right. I think we will enjoy them waters alot. Of course, any place by the water is a good place!! We may have forgotten alot of the how to's, so to speak, about fishing, BUT, we still have our tackle and then some. The trout fishing sounds great too, I wish I were there with my hubby.

Just from chatting a bit, something tells me your from Down East. Maybe Nova Scotia? If not, your kindness sure looks it.

Thanks for getting back!!! FishinGal

I am a bluenoser. Annapolis Valley.

Are you from the Maritimes?

No, I'm not, but, I have a long time dear friend who is from Sydney, Cape Breton, and she has told me just how beatifull it is in Annapolis Valley. She has relatives there.

And is it true you grow alot of apples there???

Hubby and I will be making Nova Scotia our vacation spot in just a couple years from now.

Fishin-Gal, I also live down that way and do lots of shore fishing. The thing about that area that I like is, when Lake Erie is too rough or windy, there are a ton of ponds with shore fishing opportunities for bass, crappies, pike or carp if thats your thing. The tribs are great too, and I know of some inland streams for resident trout as well.

Maybe I can show you a few of my favourite shore spots as well.. but don't get me wrong - Markus is the man.

congratulations on the move, The family and I live in tillsonburg along with a few others. Markus is a fantastic host and guide of erie and the tribs, and BBR and a few of us here do a lot of shore fishing. Looking forward to you coming down

So, ....welcome to the .....'hood, ....

Well, .....when ya get here that is,
....Oh, ...and welcome to hubby, ...who is here, ...

I think I got that right.....

Anyways, .....when ya all get sick of catching fish with Mark, .....look me up, .....

I can get ya out, ...and take you back to the good old days, ....when you didn't....

Seriously, ...this is a great fishery in these parts, .....I think you'll enjoy your stay here....

Wow

Every one of you have been so nice. Hope ya's all keep in touch!!!

I'm just itchin to get down there, especially knowing there are so many friendly people in the area!!

Thanks so much!!

In port bruce about 20 min west you can shore fish right off the break also someone told me ( never did try it) that at the end of the dead end road by the beach is ok too especially if you dont like to rub elbows with 30 other people mostly jumbos and some nice channel cats as well, oh yah under the bridge is good too.
