About Sand River
Sand River cuts through Ontario, Canada and offers classic stream fishing. The local patterns are the universal river patterns: fish the heads of pools at first light, the deep slow water in the middle of the day, and the tail-outs as light fades. Light tackle and a careful drift go a long way at Sand River — heavy splashes spook a whole pool.

Fishing Techniques
- For Brook trout
Fish upstream, casting into pools and runs, allowing your bait or lure to drift naturally with the current for best results.
- For Rainbow trout
Vary your retrieve speed when using spinners to find what triggers a strike; sometimes a slow, steady retrieve works best, while other times a faster, erratic retrieve is more effective.
- For Coho salmon
When fishing for Coho in rivers, focus on areas with current breaks, such as behind rocks or logs, as they often hold in these spots. Vary your retrieve speed to find what the fish are responding to.
