    2015 Genesee river fall trout and salmon

    in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)

    Posted · Edited by mikebarb86

    Salmon spend their early life in rivers, and then swim out to sea where they live their adult lives and gain most of their body mass. When they have matured, they return to the rivers to spawn. Usually they return with uncanny precision to the natal river where they were born, and even to the very spawning ground of their birth. It is thought that, when they are in the ocean, they use magnetoception to locate the general position of their natal river, and once close to the river, that they use their sense of smell to home in on the river entrance and even their natal spawning ground.

    This season had been a strange one. It has been difficult to catch any trout and salmon during this falls run up the genny. I see most numbers caught snagging up under the falls but I'm not seeing any in numbers between the falls and Seth green island. I believe the fishing pressure has done damage to the numbers. People are snagging and selling salmon by the hundreds every year and most people that are doing this have no job. All day these people get 10$ a fish. It's sad to see this situation occur but to save the salmon something needs to be done. As the days get shorter and colder I hope at least the trout will be coming up the river.
