Hey guys, in November, the steelhead fishing’s going to pick up even more. I’ve already gotten into a couple and it’s only going to get better from here!
Also running
Coho peak in Bowmanville, Wilmot and Duffins, and lake-run browns take the same float and roe as steelhead.
Standard-season reaches, the Credit sanctuary (Hwy 403 to Britannia), Forks of the Credit, Lowville on Bronte, the Upper Grand, and the Ganaraska above Jocelyn St. Every river linked on this page is open all month. Brook trout are closed everywhere until April 24, 2027 (what stays open after September 30).
How we picked these dates
AccuWeather’s November forecasts for Mississauga, Toronto and Port Hope (as of October 27), plus the app’s flow rule: rivers fish best 2 to 3 days after rain on creeks (Bronte, Sixteen Mile, Duffins, Bowmanville, Wilmot) and 4 to 5 days on bigger rivers (Credit, Humber, Ganaraska, Rouge). Forecasts more than 10 days out shift, so check the river in the conditions tool before you drive. This page is updated at the start of every month.
