Rimmer,Im not sure about the bridge in baxter as I have never fished it before.I am pretty new to Angus with only being here a couple of years.However on highway 90(Right in Angus) I have seen lots of Salmon pulled out of the river over the last 2 yrs.If you want to come up from Alliston sometime I will show you the area where i am talking about!
Oh what i mean by the "cue" is bring your barbecue and we can have some burgers or whatever!
Perry in Angus!

With all the rain we have had this summer I bet you will be able to hook one sometime this month.

I have never fished at the bridge between Baxter / Thornton but I did take a walk down there one day and it doesn't look too bad open water and fairly deep. I found the best place to fish for Salmon in the Not was @ wasaga beach sand banks the fish still appear somewhat silver and its nice and wide. I have fished the pine river for years and the number of salmon seem to be down over the last couple. One place I like is the mouth of the beaver river in Thornberry casting a silver meps (good fight). Angus is also good but I think you have to pay to fish on the south side of the bridge so I stopped fishing there. I could be wrong but the north side is free but lots of people. Sept depending on the rain should be OK but I have also heard of salmon in Aug. I do more lake fishing now so I will ask around and let you know when there in. Cheers

I've caught salmon in the middle of August in the past. I only fished way upstream on the Pine R. Without Beaver damn removal I'd speculate they are not getting that far anymore but Try off Airport Rd. Just north of mansfield River rd I believe first left after the Mansfield Rec. area and then go south on Concession 4 Pine River runs under the road there and absolutely no crowds and a beautiful pool, plus if you like the trout it holds a lot of good brookies in the area with easier access then the Boyne R.
This year I'd have to say after the next torrential downpour of a day or two solid they'll be in thick numbers.
