Oneida 11/3

Sk8man,

Small alewives definitely look alot like gizzard shad. These are definitely shad though, they are very common on the lake. Last fall season, the schools of shad were so large it made the shore fishing tough once they came in, it was common to see shad schools 10 to 15 feet wide.

Check this link, alewives are present in the lake but not common:

How late do they allow you to fish the shores at night?

I thought they closed @ dusk.

This guy told me over there last week that they keep the gates open after nov 1 at night. I have been earlier in the fall and the gates were closed

Went out Sunday night for about an hour to the shores ramp and got 1 eye and some pickerels.  Not bad for a quick trip, hoping to get out tonight for a little longer we will see.

I brought the snow in my truck from Cayuga county, but it was spitting when we were out there. The wind was bitter.
