Hello all. Me and my retired father just started fishing this summer. It's been fun, but we haven't had much success. No boat, so we're trying to fish from shore in the Buffalo, N.Y. area. If anyone has any tip for catching fall walleye in western NY, it'd be greatly appreciated. We've spent dozens of hours and only manged a single bass so far... But we did see a gigantic water dog today, which was cool. If anyone if the Buffalo, N.Y. area wants to go shore fishing with us, let me know. I'll buy the bait if you put us on the fish!
