you must have because there wasnt any running friday night at olcott thats for sure. . .saw 2 fish caught in 7 hours

well guys, got to olcott friday night at 6pm and fished hard from the west pier until 2am. . .when I say that it was bad it is a huge understatement. . .cleos, skein u name it we tried it and maybe. . .MAYBE saw a total of 5 out of maybe 150 ppl who were in and out that night hook a fish and maybe 2 landed. The fish simply were not there, even the boats called it quits early, must not have been marking fish out there. The lake was calm also. We booked it out of there back to erie for daylight sat morning and a fresh run came in and me and my bro pounded them so ? maybe the great lord was paying us back for our struggles up at olcott i dont know but man, was it bad

wow thanks a lot for your post. . .ive always fished the east pier when ive been up to olcott just because that was where my dad fished but ill try something new this time around. Thanks alot

When fishing the peers, do you still have decent success when the lake is a little rough like on a NE wind thats blowing pretty hard ? Its only supposed to be like 10mph winds tonight and overnight, was planning on coming up today but I know its windy so i was just wondering, anything would be helpful thanks

what have you been catching the most fish on out there ?

Ya i heard they were coming in and out during the night and early morning hours but I decided to go fish the crowds up at erie this weekend for the steelhead instead. I thought I saw that rain is on its way and that can only help. Thanks for your posts and dont hesitate to keep me updated if you dont mind, I appreciate it.

what do u mean they might not make it in that far ? How many were you catching while you were actually fishing as well ? I mean i would just go to erie if I were only going to catch one or two

Hey guys just wondering if it is worth coming up this weekend to fish the piers off of olcott ? I'm trying to hook into more than just a few being that it is not a short trip for me and I'm wondering if it is worth the trip up? I hear the fish are coming in and out at night but how many ? Also, are they still hitting the glow cleos. . .? anything else ? Thanks, really appreciate any replies.

Thanks for your reply guys that is really helpful. I know how to fish for them for the most part just did not remember when to get out there for em. I appreciate it and maybe i'll see you on the water soon. Thanks !

Hey guys I am a pretty inexperienced salmon fisherman, spend most of my time on Erie for the steelies. My father used to fish olcott every weekend from september through november or at least I thought. Im just wondering when is generally a good time to catch these fish staging out in front of olcott off the peers ? I appreciate it
