any hint as to where abouts is a good place to go. i went last night and had a tough time accessing the creek. i started at the bridge near the Amherst museum and try ed to work my way to the Niagara river but could only find a couple of spots to park,alot of driving,not much fishing,no fish :( :(

i usually fish, Transit road bridge, and there's another point, but you have to find a spot to park, its in Rapids. i think the street is Goodrich, fish before the Rapids in both spots, Transit road, its a lot deeper in the pools behind the rapids.......

Rapala's in Blue, Black, or perch colors,
and the mister twister in the white, with the blue on them like i stated in the message

Fished Saterdaycaught a few smallies, and some large mouth. If any one is planning to fish there from a boat be careful there are a lot of rocks just under the surface about 75 yards from the mouth at the canal, my prop has the marks to prove it.

The Transit Road bridge... If this is the one next to Tim Hortons, isnt it all posted up around there?
If so, where do you park and access?
