Lake Ontario - Freshwater Fishing Report

Today is Wednesday September 14, 2016.
The weather for the next week or so seems to have higher than normal daytime temperatures and cooler and normal night time temperatures or at least that is what the weathermen say.
There doesn't seem to be much boat action on our portion of Lake Ontario but the pier fishermen are just starting to get some hook-ups.
This is also the time of year when many fishermen's minds and hearts start turning towards hunting season.
With the shorter days and longer nights water temperatures should start dropping towards that magic number to signal the start of the spawning migration for trout and salmon.
On Lake Alice there has been an upswing in the Bluegill catch rate and also the sizes of the catch especially around the Waterport Bridge area.
Also the bass fishing productivity has increased due to some cooler water temperatures.
With September also half gone, tributary fishermen are preparing for what should be a great tributary season.
Please remember that the St. Mary's Archers Club Catch and Release Tournament will be held from October 19th to the 21st this year.
It's a great time for some great competition, fantastic food and some of the finest tributary fishing to be found anywhere.
From Point Breeze on Lake Ontario, the World Fishing Network's Ultimate Fishing Town USA and the rest of Orleans County, Let's make everyday a great fishing day right here in Orleans County.
