A totally fantastic Fishing hole!
Less than an hour Northwest of Toronto. Provided you aren’t driving during rush hour of course. Realistically you shouldn’t be driving during rush hour if you are hoping to catch a few fish. There is a little known spot that’s fantastic for Brook, and Rainbow Trout. Along a stretch of Creditview road between King Street, and Olde Base Line in Caledon lies the small village of Cheltenham. Unless you are from Cheltenham, or somewhere else close by. You’ve probably never been to the great little stretch of the Credit River that runs alongside Mill Street in Cheltenham.
Beginning just behind the Cheltenham General store, and continuing Southwest to Mississauga road. This small stretch of the Credit River is perfect for casting lures, fly fishing, or drifting worms with a hook and bobber. There is a campsite Park at Mississauga road by the river which gets busy at times. Personally I prefer to avoid fishing in groups, so I tend to stay closer to Creditview road. As an added bonus, having the Cheltenham General store close by is really convenient. It’s a great place for an early morning coffee, or lunch after fishing.

If for some strange reason the unthinkable happens! You’ve been fishing for a few hours, and haven’t caught anything. Don’t worry about it. You are within a fifteen minute drive of a number of great spots. About a five minute drive away is another great spot on the Forks of the Credit. There’s available parking, and one of the most picturesque spots on the river below the trestle bridge.
If you have read my previous The Right Angle posts then you will already know about my favourite spot in nearby Belfountain. Refer to my previous post for the exact location.
I’ve had the most luck in this area casting with Spinners. A number 3, or 4 Blue Fox Silver Spinner has worked well. Try whatever you prefer. If you find something that works particularly well for you. Please leave a comment and let me know.
