fishing off Ambleside park
« on: July 21, 2014, 09:49:34 AM »

Any action/luck off ambleside park. Just curious as I'm going out there anyway. I don't think we got enough rain on the weekend to open up the spillway anymore than it is right now, so the fish should still be holding out there.

You never know until you go out and do some fishing. ;)

If your are going out there to fish anyways, maybe you can let us know if you have any luck.

Different exposure pathways and risk levels.  The risk and duration of skin contact and inadvertent ingestion is far higher when swimming in poo impacted water than fishing, unless wading without er waders.  Fecal coliform ingestion through the consumption of cleaned and cooked fish that happen to be caught in poo impacted water is also not a viable exposure pathway. 

If fishing there (particularly on the east side of the Cap estuary, I would not only rinse gear well to protect against salt corrosion but also if your immune system is not 100%, i would also recommend washing your hands and face with soapy water before eating drinking or smoking.

I carry hand sanitizer in my fishing backpack and in my car.  I don't drink or eat anything until I clean my hands.  I also never put my fishing line in my mouth to tie knots. 

I have seen fish caught there recently.

You know what I like????   NOT THIS!!!!!

This is a discussion forum, I'm not asking for your favorite secret fishing spot. Hell I'm not even asking what type of lure you are using, I just asked if anyone had been lucky out there. Good luck to you sir/ma'am I'll not be returning to this forum anytime soon. I see this type of posting far too often. What is the point of a discussion forum if you are not discussing anything.

There is a members fishing reports section where you are far more likely to find out how things are going in specific areas - but as you are fairly green to this forum with less than 50 posts, you cannot view it. Responses like this are not likely going to make you any new friends or get you positive feedback.

Get out there and go fish Ambleside if for nothing more than to relax. If you are going to strictly catch fish and nothing else, you are going to be disappointed.

Just consider it a little hazing.  Seems to happen on all the fishing forums.  I think your past the worst part  ;)

If that's hazing, I'd hate to know what the stuff I delete are…

This is a discussion forum.

You're right, it's a discussion forum. leapin' tyee can freely express his opinion, as long as it is within the forum guidelines. You can also freely like or dislike his opinion, but if that discourages you from participating further, then an online discussion forum is not for you.

I've gotten one small hatchery hoe off Ambleside over the past week. There are fish there at the right tides, it's getting them to bite that is the problem haha.
