A simple walk on the Port Maitland Pier turned out to be much more eventful than expected.
On a beautiful Saturday in June, Lana and I visited Port Maitland, Ontario, at the mouth of the Grand River where it meets Lake Erie. My plan was straightforward: walk the length of the pier, observe the fishing activity, and enjoy the day.
What happened instead was a series of surprising moments.
Along the pier, anglers were catching fish and sharing stories. One unusual catch caused a stir among nearby fishermen, but the biggest commotion came when a rainbow trout (which some observers called a steelhead) was landed and photographed by several bystanders.
The unexpected events left me wondering just how much can happen during a single walk that takes less than ten minutes from end to end.
Join me for a walk along one of Lake Erie's most interesting fishing piers and see what happened.
