Wrong, Salmon are managed for the Lake. Not the tribs. You guys made that perfectly clear when you started regulating us on the lake. It needs to be our turn to protect OUR fish. We are being told what we can do on the lake now, so it's not cool when a trib business takes a hit? You tributary folks are just like the LGBTQPRS community. A few of you whine loud enough and get your way from our leaders. I can't wait to see the next regulation that comes down the pipeline against the Lake guys. We just continue to get it shoved up our butt.

I'm all for closing the Salmon River until November 1st. If Salmon are managed for the Lake I want the best of the best getting to that hatchery. For years all we've gotten were the scraps that made it through, and even then those fish were harassed and stressed beyond belief. Closing the Salmon River (the river that supplies 95% of our eggs and stocking numbers) just makes sense. Other than one small town nothing else will be affected. Canadian tribs are closed, and I don't see the town's on those tribs struggling. We'd need less of a DEC presence to write tickets that don't even get convicted, the big Trout wouldn't get ripped out prematurely by the Salmon crowd, the river would be cleaner, and there'd be more food in the system for those Trout. There's wins for both crowds by shutting that place down. I don't think we'd have a problem getting Canada's 100,000+ members of their Sportfishing/outdoors counsel to jump on board, and I don't know many, if any, Lake guys who'd be against it. Especially, after the stupid Steelhead regulation goes through. Sent from my Pixel 4 XL using Lake Ontario United mobile app

#fakenews There are many lazy captains between Rochester and Sodus that will not drive a half mile over Lake Trout to catch a Salmon. LOL

You're correct in June and early July, but get into August and September when thermoclines are 60-80' down in the Western Basin (much deeper on the eastern) and you'd be surprised how deep the Steelhead go. Last September we fished offshore all month and pulled Steelhead down 60-90' all month.

Then where did it come from? Help us fight against it then. As for the comment above about never seeing a limit of Steelhead on a charter rack. You wont, becasue lake anglers don't target them like that. This reg wont help or hurt anything to be honest, so why bother going through the process to pass it? It's no different than the money wasted on these stupid impeachment hearings. To be honest it's just the fact we keep getting the short end of the stick on the lake while the DEC keeps making it better for trib anglers. First we dealt with a size increase from 18" to 21" Our lake limit went from 5 to 3 Caledonia Hatchery closed 3 stocking cuts since the 90's Lake clubs raised money to start and run pen programs, but the state magically finds $100,000 for the trib guys pen projects I hear rumors of an Atlantic pen program in the SR This newest regulation against lake guys Lake Trout stocking targets have been missed for many years Coho stocking targets have been constantly missed

There were a few years when the DEC exceeded the stocking quota for Steelhead, which gave us some fantastic seasons on the Lake for Steelhead. Right when the average size was getting up into the low teens we had the big die off from vitamin B that Fall.

Take the angler effort from Salmon season in the tribs (August-October) away and I'd be interested to see how the Steelhead angler effort matches up to the lake angler effort. These anglers aren't there for Trout, but if they get one you better believe it's going on a stringer. Take away the trib Salmon crowd and the $$$ spent by trib anglers to impact local towns goes way down. Most Steehead anglers are shopping on-line for their gear, and if you look at the median age for that crowd they aren't forking over money for hotel stays.

Fishing browns is your safe bet. Going offshore and trying to find late November Kings would be something not many have done. I'd assume if you found the bait you could get into some Salmon. Might be a deep bite.
