Niagra River Question

Can anyone tell me how close you can fish the Niagra River to the falls?? I swear I seen a show one day when they were really close to the falls.My girlfriend bet me a steak dinner that your not allowed near the falls..I`m asking where the falls comes over the top,underneath where the Maid of the Mist runs,Thanks

you can fish the niagara river as far as the american falls from the canadian side thats as far as i can find to acess by foot

I've only boated above niagra falls, but I don't think that you can get that close. I don't know if it's the regulations so much, or if it's more that there are no boatlaunches above the rapids. The lower niagra is full of rapids, and whirlpools, so I don't know whether it's safe to run a regular boat on them.

Go get your steak...on the canadian side park your car near clifton hill...you can walk down
the path that leads to the bottom of the
falls....at this point your fishing within
view of falls...

bring your check book or a large amount of money because you are not allowed to fish past the cabel car (wherlpool)I need spellcheck)I do no this for a fact because I have to pay a 110 fine for fishing at the maid of the mist
