Great park, terrible fishing. Do not come here for fishing, the only abundant species are sunfish in the pond and maybe the extremely rare occasional bass or catfish or carp, I doubt there is any pike in there. The biggest issue is that there is only a small area allowed for fishing which is covered in goose droppings, last but not least it’s teaming with conservation officers so if you want to spend your time having your license and gear inspected instead of spending time fishing then go ahead, but honestly it’s not worth it to deal with all that just to catch sunfish. I have been there three times and each time got inspected by the officers which is fine they are just doing their job but you can go literally anywhere else and there is a very slim chance of an officer being there or even if there is an officer present they won’t bother you they will just do their patrols, but here they will guarantee come up to you and ask for your license and check your gear. there’s literally better fishing anywhere else where fishing is allowed in Toronto. This is more of a bird watching/strolling goose feeding park. Not a park that encourages or really supports fishing. It’s very bad fishing culture at this park so please I suggest don’t waste your time and try any other spot. This park should just ban fishing entirely at this park and then problem solved. They probably just “allow” fishing for extra funding...
