Hello fellow fisherman. PA fisherman taking my once a year fishing vacation on Lake Ontario from June 23rd to June 30th. I'm in need of help and tips on how to fish for Trout and Salmon and am fishing out of Fair Haven NY.
Any help provided would be greatly appreciated and I was looking for advice on the following subjects.
By the way! If you own a tackle shop....set me up. I need tackle!
What Salmon are active now, and at what depths can I find them...in how many feet of water?
What lures, flies, flashers, spinner, spoons, or cut bait holders should I try including glow colors for Salmon fishing? Where can I buy them (good local bait and tackle shop) and what specific brands, sizes and colors should I use?
Anything special such as optimal trolling speed that I should do for Salmon fishing with my downriggers, or should I use another method of fishing.

What radio channel should I listen to for chatter?
Are there any tow services or calls that can be made if I get stranded with a failed motor?
Are there any other considerations that I should take such as another good species to fish for (i.e. Walleye, Northerns, etc.) or certain places I should go?
Any help is greatly appreciated and there are some very nice fish posted on this page.
Tight lines and thanks!
