  1. Are there places on the canal in the Rochester area or something where people do well for pike because I have only caught one pike in the canal yet the dec says it’s great in the canal or some spot where you can fish from shore because places like black creek and buck pond seem better by boat especially because of the weeds up against the shore(ideally aren’t a big walk either because my tackle box is 22lbs)
  2. I’m in Rochester Ny and was wondering if there were any closer to home places for pickerel as the nearest place I know of is hemlock ands that’s a 40 minute drive plus
  3. I just completed my boating course and have had my lifetime license for a few years now and am wondering once I get my drivers license what I need to bring to the dmv to get the stamps on my license
  4. Do I threat the twister on like a jig or nose hook it
  5. Inline spinners are another story especially dressed I mean the “safety pin” as it’s too weedy for inline spinners
  6. Would a spoon or spinnerbait work better for pickerel
  7. Don’t have any boats or anything though Any closer part of keuka would also work
  8. Any of the color or sizes better then the others and what size Johnson silver minnow (despite the color options for the spoon I’m presuming silver unless you have one in mind)
  9. For shore access /pickerel or both because it’s a bit of a drive , swimmers and not weedy also do you know anything about shore fishing west river marsh
  10. I’m staying at a place in Naples and was wondering if there were any shore fishing places for pickerel in the area
  11. There are these fountain ponds with pike in them but was wondering if there was a technique to fishing for them right now with heavy weeds especially when the fountains are off/ and or finding them
  12. Canal wide wide waters in spencerport is a good spot as well
  13. Hemlock was terrible when I checked this year south end was complete mud
  14. Don’t be to pessimistic look what happened with the smallmouth producing bigger fish and they will probably stock more fish
  15. Ive tried there and the other common listed spots like buck pond, black creek ect but have never had success I was hoping like on the canal or the canal ponds but the canal ponds are maxed out with weeds unless you have advice for fishing there with all the weeds, somewhere that has easy access and with not a lot of weeds or where I can get passed them
  16. Are there any places in Rochester like certain parts of the canal that have really good pike fishing or at least not with a lot of weeds
  17. I never have fished for walleyes before but was wondering where you get them my location is by the bridge someone told me nightcrawlers on the bottom but it seems like perch and gobies would be a problem
  18. Don’t use those if you want to remove it you have to retie whole rig
