Gear Recommendations for Anglers
As passionate anglers at Pokey’s Tackle Shop, we know exactly what gear works best in these local waters.
Here are a few of our expert tips for anglers:
- Lake Ontario Salmon & Trout: These big lake fish are powerful fighters. We recommend using deep-diving crankbaits from top brands like Bandit Lures, which are proven winners on the Great Lakes.
- Pike & Bass: The Toronto Islands and nearby bays are loaded with aggressive predators. You’ll need strong hooks like these Wide Gap hooks to handle their powerful bites.
- River & Stream Fishing: For fishing the Credit or Humber Rivers, accuracy is key. Having the right fishing rod is crucial for making the perfect cast in tight spots.
- Fly Fishing: If you love a more traditional approach, we are your go-to online fly fishing store. We have everything you need to chase everything from trout to bass on the fly.
