It likely wasn’t your usual evening fishing near the mouth of Cobourg Creek on Friday, September 12, 2025.
Around 9 p.m. there was a disturbance on the east and west side of Cobourg Creek between anglers with a number of people yelling back and forth across the creek.
Numerous people fishing called Cobourg Police who attended along with a Municipal By-Law Officer.
Police and by-law spoke to people just north of the mouth of the creek to try and determine what happened.
One person with the group stated they caught 40-salmon during their time on the creek.
Police stayed on site until the parties left the area.
For anglers choosing to fish by Peace Park, the by-law states that the park closes at 11 p.m., therefore there is no fishing after 11 p.m. in Cobourg Parks.
