Burlington Bay/ Hamilton Harbor

[Capt. Larry D. Jones]

 This morning I got this wild idea to try the area near the steel mill in Hamilton Harbor.Marked lots of bigger bait fish,either alwifes or shad.However I did not mark much in bigger hooks.I was reluctant to press my luck by going back into the canal by the steel mill,being an out of country boat.I gave it only a couple hours because the winds started creating white caps,launch had no dock and I left my rig with boat trailer in the water,so I quit by noon.One would think there would be muskies there with all the bigger bait fish.Surface water temp was 42 degeees in open water and 43.5 degrees by the mouth of the steel mill canal.Water clarity about 5 ft. Back to the Upper Niagara River in the morning.
