Salmon River - Freshwater Fishing Report
A few of the lakes to the north were just starting to freeze up, but my reports tell me that the rain and warm temps wiped out what little ice there was. We will have to wait for another cold snap before anyone does any ice fishing.
The rain showers and warm temps have brought the levels up in area streams.The big question now is where to go. The water on the salmon river is 1,000cfs for the remainder of the week.
Look for fish moving up from the lower river. Fish the pockets and the faster water in the head or tailouts of the deeper pools. The anglers having the most success have reported that the key is to COVER LOTS OF WATER because the fish are spread out. If you are fishing the small streams, try pink and chartreuse egg sacs if the water is colored and blue or white if it is clear.
On the the Oswego, the water level has dropped to about 13,000cfs. There is a good number of fish thee and the local guides have been doing well.
On Oneida Lake walleye anglers are finding some activity from the shore using stickbaits. The blue/silver and black/silver color combinations have been very successful. Perch fishing has been slow.
If you a have question or comment, feel free to e-mail me anytime. Send your mail to Troy @ lakeontariooutdoors.com or you can also log on to our website at www.Lakeontariooutdoors.com for daily fishing reports, river guides, as well as numerous links to great sites and area businesses.
Remember to stay safe, be respectful of others and put a few back for another day.
This is Captain Troy Creasy, have a great day.
