North End of Cayuga

[Absolut40]

Does anyone know if it is ice free enough to launch a boat on the north end to do some perch fishing.Any help would be appreciated.

[MarkNY]

yes

[slow rollin]

Yes it is but water is very low

[Absolut40]

Thanks.I heard the water was really low.I think ill wait another month

[lumberman]

cayuga lake stae park has no water but you should be ok out of union springs

[ben schroo]

Unions springs is wickedly low as well, be tough to put in there. Why is the water SO low this year??

[Absolut40]

When i drove along 89 this year on my way to Rochester this christmas it seemed like the lake was lower than normal.

The state controls the level of Cayuga....After last spring and summer high water and flooding....They are probably preparing for same this year...When I got to my summer home on April 29 last spring.....Treman launch parking lot was flooded ....Never saw it that high...I didn't fish two tournaments last year because of HIGH water

[bandrus1]

anybody know if you can launch at treman now?

[Redeye87]

Bandrus - It depends on the size of your boat! I have a 21' aluminum and wont try it. We were pounding them out of treman for a couple weeks than they lowered the lake another foot..

[bandrus1]

I have a 19 food sea nymph what ya think?

[bandrus1]

if treman is bad how about myers?

[seasquirrel]

Just looked at union springs launch yesterday. Yeah, its low but if you have 4 wheel drive and a fairly light boat (aluminum) you should be ok. Middle ramp is rough and I would avoid it. Lots of wood and other debris on the concrete ramp. Looks like you could keep all your vehicle wheels on the ramp and out of the lake bottom to launch. I would go to Seneca, bigger and better perch fishing.

Myer's is closed due to construction in the marina, the last I knew.

[stoutner]

You can probably launch out of Deans Cove.

[lavarock64]

Dean's cove should be ok.

They lowered the lake another foot about 2-3 weeks ago. The reason is the Hydrilla problem. The DEC requested it. This is as low as they can go before problems happen with the Seneca Falls water treatment plant intake around Canoga.........

Good Luck

[Frisco]

I would stay clear of Treman we launched there a week ago and had difficulty getting back to the docks>

[Splitshot115]

Was told of a guy launching there this past weekend who had to drag the boat thru the mud to get it in the water. He had a 14 footer.

[Absolut40]

I think im gonna wait a while before i try it on the north end.Im gonna give Seneca a try even though that lake always gets the best of me.

[rustyrat]

I wouldn't try to put anything over 18 ft at t falls. My docks and lifts are completely dry. I have never seen it this low.
