January 30th, 2014 – The BCA Junior Director, Greg Attard, had another great day ice fishing. It was his personal best and biggest lake trout Greg has caught to date! In 117ft of water and 18” of thick ice on Lake Simcoe, Greg caught this amazing lake trout with a 30” Streamside Predator Ice Fishing Rod. It gave him a surprising fight with big runs and head-shakes. The fish weight in just shy of 12 pound. Great to have Tony Steinfeld and Lightning Series Lures back at the show.

About Metro East Anglers Metro East Anglers is a registered Canadian charity, previously known as the Metro East Steelhead and Salmon Fishermen. MEA has long been involved in the betterment of the Lake Ontario trout and salmon fishery. From a humble beginning in 1995 at the Parkview Hatchery on the Rouge River, with the rearing of 3500 Rainbow Trout in an upwelling box, the club has grown to produce hundreds of thousands of Rainbow Trout, Brown Trout, Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon and Atlantic Salmon yearly for stocking in our local watersheds. The club continues to support an increased membership of dedicated anglers and conservationists. Since September 2006, when operations were moved from Parkview, MEA had operated the Ringwood Fish Culture Station where the main focus was the rearing and marking of the entire Ontario production of Chinook Salmon for Lake Ontario. During that 5 year partnership with OFAH and MNR, and help from sponsors and many volunteers, the hatchery raised over 2.5 million juvenile salmon for stocking. Our club also initiated the re-introduction of Coho Salmon production and stocking, back in 2007, and established four Chinook Salmon pen imprinting projects in the Greater Toronto area. Additionally, MEA continues to participate in a broad range of activities, ranging from the operation of the Milne Fishway in Markham and stream rehabilitation programs with Ontario Streams, to environmental, educational and ethical programs such as River Watch and Report a Poacher and assisting and working with schools. The major focus of the club's activities is the production of salmon and trout for the local watersheds, where natural reproduction is severely thwarted by urbanization and limited spawning opportunities. Metro East Anglers is always interested in new members and actively seeking financial partners to keep our operations at full capacity at the Ringwood fish hatchery |
