Erie Canal spillway first fish of the season! 4/29/11

I went out to Swifts landing for a few hours and ended up catching 4 nice small mouth bass, and a rock bass. It was very neat to see the clear water from the creek converging with the muddy water from the Erie Canal spillway. The weather was a little cool but i'm glad i caught some fish my first time out!

water is real high in your pics. when it's normal the spillway on the right in your photo won't be runnin. cross both bridges and walk accross the spillway and down to the base of the other one. use live bait there under a bobber for some nice pike. walk slowly accross the spillway;it hurts like h..l when you fall in.
