Thanks, Liogundog. I did note some ice covering at salmon creek bridge on braddock bay yesterday......12/18/20. Thought it may be a bit thin though. warmer weather for this weekend may break it down but still a good sign. I also noted the water level a bit low too. Wonder if stews deli has bait yet? I'll have to call him. -
Hello all, I know it's a little early but, let's keep an eye for ice on the lakeshore ponds. Hoping the season comes a little early this year. I myself am ready..........Bob.

So, now that the Ice is out, has anyone heard anything about some nice Perch fishing at Long Pond or Cranberry pond. I have to fish from shore with minnows. Any news?. Thanks.....
-
Anyone know how much Ice we have on Cranberry Pond? I heard about 2 inches......not sure if that's right.
-
Ice is finally on the way.....Maybe a week. Lets all be safe and wait for at least 4 inches on the Lake shore Ponds. With single number low temps and calm winds....should not take too long. Maybe next weekend I'll see you all out there. I prefer Cranberry pond...If no parking....then Long pond or Braddock's Bay. Good luck to all!
-
New blades last year, used twice....keep dry ever since. Blades are still sharp. Found all my jigs and tools such as forceps. .....All ready here!
-
Heard from stew's deli near cranberry pond...he has bait and guys have been buying. Are they on cranberry or long pond?. I'll have to go check it out. Some nice cold nights here....maybe ice?
-
Please keep an eye open for Safe Ice along the shoreline Ponds and Bays. I'm Ready!!!!!
-
We went out till the rain came in. Marked alot of fish. 25-35ft. Ended up catching a nice brown trout. -
Has anyone tried for small mouth bass out in the lake east of irondequoit bay Jigging or Trolling? August was usually the best time to go out. I haven't been in a few years. Want to try again.
-
Just seen on the news tonight, that the Boat Launch at the North end of Irondequoit bay in finally open. Will have to check it out soon.Maybe a little Bass fishing in the lake, hedges or new Webster Park is in order?
-
Anyone gone to Eastern Lake Erie lately/ I'm hearing that it's a hotspot lately..Thx. -
Has anyone been out in the Lake, and how did you do. It's been a tough weekend for fishing. Sodus Bay I think is flooded out and 5 miles an hour gets you nowhere fast. I would rather try to fish around Rochester area. I was thinking about Watomla Shoals between Braddock and Sandy creek. What are the groups thoughts ?
-
Is there anywhere to launch near Rochester area that is not underwater?. And.....are there any Small-mouth Bass in the Lake to go after? Greater Rochester area.
-
I wonder if the Finger Lakes are any better for Smelting. Historically Niagara has always been bountiful. -
Anyone caught any....no news?
-
Ok, Like I always looked for. They show up as food for trout first. I think this is the week for all to try. ......If the rain ever stops!
-
Usually Charter Captains report Smelt in the bellies of trout and salmon at the mouth of the river.Have not heard that this year. Also, I think the Gobbles have something to do with decreases in fish populations too. Too bad....they have ruined the lake fishing everywhere, unless you're fishing for those @#$%$# things. Plenty of those around!
-
Ok Great! Let us all know. This very very strange that nothing has happened yet. Thanks.
-
Any action yet? One site says a some showing up out deep, Another denies any smelt at all yet.
-
No problem, glad to help if I can.
-
Here is an updated link to DEC in western NY. No Smelt yet, according to them. Water is still too cold, 35 degrees in the river. https://www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/9217.html
-
I just checked the Niagara River temp at the falls, 39 degrees. It might be worth a try to spend an evening wading in the river this weekend. They like 42 degrees but it is also getting quite late too. Good Luck.
-
Wow, seems like the Temp dropped a few degrees. Well, Smelt on Memorial may not be a bad thing either....LOL. Really late this year.
-
Anyone tried smelting yet? Should be soon....
