Toronto Urban Pike Shore Fishing

Headed to the shoreline of Toronto looking for northern pike action. Only a couple days left of the season (closed from April to first Sat in May) and the warm temperatures had me itching to catch some of those pre-spawn pike. They can be quite abundant and decent sized downtown. Especially with the recent reports of tanks being caught, I thought I could get my hand on atleast one or two.
It was a slightly different case for me.

3 yrs later, and your videos are still legendary...

[@mzahra1]

6 years later! lol

[@abdulkarimi8266]

One of the best videos and very informative which helped me get started on fishing. Condolences to the family and friends of Kevin. R.i.P Kevin.

[@TheYwontthiswork]

Thanks for the video! I'm from America and myself and some friends are headed up to Toronto here in a few weeks to do some fishing. We are starting in Toronto and then road tripping further north. We don't have a boat so its going to be a lot of shore fishing. Really appreciate you showing how its done.

[@outdoordaveadventures]

Hey the little guys are still better than the skunk. Cant wait for the season to open again. Great video, been waiting for some new uploads. Top notch production value as always.

[@BigFishSmallCamera]

Thanks Dave. Definitely!

[@HookedTorontoFishing]

Hey, i think i met you about a year back at the bluffs. You were nice to me and gave me tips on how to locate em. You wouldn't remember me i wouldn't think. But thanks for being a nice guy. I am now a little more experienced thanks to guys like you.

[@BigFishSmallCamera]

Sorry I don't exactly recall but sure I'll take the credit. Lol. I'm glad you're doing better for fishing! Keep on fishing there is always something g to learn.

[@dudesz17]

How do you locate them? lol sorry new to fishing

[@Scrilla911]

@@BigFishSmallCamera 1 Good

[@reelgirlsgofishing599]

If you get the chance to go back down to the scarborough bluffs, try at the opening where the boats come in, you weren't far off from where you were to the spot. Also, if you haven't already and get the chance, try the mouth of the Rouge River, at the end of Lawrence Ave east. Love your videos man! Keep em coming!

[@BigFishSmallCamera]

Cool. Thanks for the advise and it was nice meeting you!

[@dudesz17]

+Meaghan Norley you mean this? 43.707444, -79.226246

[@DonaldHolben]

Have seen nice pike at Sugar beach.

[@reelcanadianlunkerhunter7574]

Good to see you back at it Kevin.... still on the ice up here.... posted a vid a couple days ago showing 18" of ice... Tight lines!

[@BigFishSmallCamera]

Reel Canadian Lunker Hunter thanks. I think I'm over ice and going to get ready for some open water! I hope you get some great last ice action bud. Tight lines

[@Lobo_X0]

Sick video! Love the music you time it well. The video angles are in point as well. And you're not boring, very entertaining to watch and learn from. Hopefully I learn to fish asap!

[@djbound]

R.I.P Kevin miss our talks and all your amazing videos.

[@benjaminwarner3721]

Two things that really helped my cold water pike fishing were switching to flouro leaders with no swivels, uni knot to the braid and whatever knot you want to the lure. The second was really slowing down my retrieve, like painfully slow at times. 15-30 second pauses wouldnt be out of line.

[@BigFishSmallCamera]

Solid advise Benjamin! I'm too impatient for such long pauses. If I don't sting a fish quick enough, I move on. lol

[@tiefsa]

Great hook set on the first pike. I thought it was going to be big initially.

[@CarlOutside]

Fun outing.....open water is here

[@BigFishSmallCamera]

Yup yup!

[@johnson1573]

I like this.good

[@DalyFishing]

Great content keep up the great work!

[@sasklunkers6203]

Man just found your videos. Why don't you have more subscribers!? Sweet channel

[@BigFishSmallCamera]

Haha. Why aren't you subscribed?!?! haha. Thanks

[@fish4life939]

I've headed to the Toronto harbor to catch some pike but I haven't had any luck. Anyways, loved the video! I'm a sub!

[@BigFishSmallCamera]

Thanks! Plenty of pike cruises the shores of Toronto!

[@MrKman98]

Love the video man!

[@BigFishSmallCamera]

Thanks MrKman98!

[@ronserps8489]

I would definitely try spoons along where you were fishing. Nice flowing easy to follow video

[@eddycpl]

Can’t believe it’s been 4yrs. You are still missed.

[@Jason_special_one]

Great video 👍🏻

[@turboflacko946]

Sweet fotage man!

[@MuridHolyBEEP]

You are so educational I go to bluffs a lot but never have any luck but I am also pretty new to fishing, Have you tried fishing near the bridge to enter the yacht club but its almost always packed. Definitely subbing to you :) as they say tight lines or something like that! haha

[@BigFishSmallCamera]

Thanks. I did try a couple casts there but it didn't yield anything. There is a reason why it is always packed there though ;)

[@MuridHolyBEEP]

How long do you stay in a spot before you move? Sorry just trying to learn

[@BigFishSmallCamera]

It really depends on how sexy the spot looks. If it looks like it has a lot of potential, I'll stick around longer. If I have previously caught fish in that area, I'll stay longer.

[@MuridHolyBEEP]

I see thanks for the info :) im currently watching your ice fishing in simcoe video haha

[@paulgilmore9943]

Great video. I am a little concerned with the handling of some of the fish though.

[@acelife545]

Hi Guy . how are you now ? i really like seeing fishing . Do you fish every day ? i am watching from Singapor . good luck

[@ampytshorts]

he passed away two years ago

[@differentfins]

City fishing is different lol. I love pike fishing but scenery is not quite the same up here in NW Ontario lol. Cheers

[@jean-marcboucher7878]

Nice I just sub but they small but still fun to catch

[@s4dreamland671]

Very sad ending , RIP Kevin !

[@BrannonBrett]

hey man, sick video! I am about to take a fishing trip to toronto and was wandering if maybe you could tell me where some of these places are that you are catching these fish? If not its cool, but it would be sick if you would.

[@jackbao1231]

Nice catch man! Is there sunfish spot in downtown Toronto? Thanks a lot!

[@clarkzhang9476]

he passed away couple years ago. lets wish him tight lines up there.

[@jackbao1231]
