An angler in Toronto Harbor assumed he had hooked a big pike when he felt the weight at the end of the line. Turns out, it was a 'unicorn.'
"We knew it was a unicorn, like obviously there's muskie in Lake Ontario, in Toronto Harbor it's super unheard of," Sampson told CTV.
Sampson, a fishing guide, has fished his whole life and has caught muskie before, but this was a first for this area. He told CTV there are lots of muskie at the mouth of the Niagara River and at the other end of Lake Ontario near Kingston."After the arrival of Europeans, a host of changes resulted in the destruction or deterioration of fish habitat," the city's 'Fishes of Toronto' guide reads.
"A total of 15 exotic fish species were either intentionally introduced for food and recreation, or invaded through navigational canals or ballasts of ocean-going ships. Today, populations of most native fishes have declined dramatically and 10 species have disappeared entirely."
