Lake Ontario - Freshwater Fishing Report
Today is Monday April 23, 2012.
I thought April was the month for gentle rains that brought May flowers, not snow and gale force winds.
This year will be one that from a weather standpoint will be talked about for years.
I suppose the good news is that when this wind finally dies down, there will be one heck of a mud line on Lake Ontario.
Just before the weather turned nasty, the fishing on Lake Ontario off Orleans County was very good with a mixture of Brown trout, Coho salmon, Lake Trout and Chinook salmon being taken all along the shoreline.
The tributaries within the county were reporting good catches of all the warm water species.
The Erie Canal is filled and these waters should come to life for the fishery very soon.
What will the conditions be when our weather returns to normal, whatever that is, is anyone's guess.
There is really no sense in talking about lure patterns and techniques because that will all have changed again after this storm.
Let's make every day and great fishing day, right here in Orleans County.
