Any walleye numbers in front of the Catt yet?
Jimdski replied to StarCraft 84's topic in Open Lake Discussion
Too warm surface water temperatures drive walleyes and perch deeper into 75 foot plus and deeper water. Get out there now in August, things will change for you. -
After 30 years staying at Point Breeze, fall weather over the warm lake water temperatures results in a lot of water spouts or tornadoes on the lake. Winds like 100 mph can be present so before venturing out on the lake, listen for the weather reports. One year the lake blew up and it took an hour to travel the six miles back to Dunkirk in ten foot waves. Be careful out there.

With Lake Erie water temperatures exceeding 70 F now in August so water depths over 75 foot show more fish there 5 miles due west of Sturgeon Point or straight out from the Cat. Perch show well out there and walleyes are good there. 2 ounce snap weights are better than 100 yard lead core especially winding back in.

lose your rights to hunt and fish in NY.

Buoys mark trap nets used to catch fish for public consumption. Legally operated. Do not steal fish from these nets.

After 40 years fishing from the Point Breeze RV Family Park, with a broken hip surgery and 81 years of age, my fishing days are over. My mobie home and set up are available. Many days we came in with three hundred large perch from 55 foot of water a mile off shore. Limits of walleyes are available from spring ice melt down till winter freeze. The boat ramp serves 14 to 24 foot boats for launching with site parking for your boat in season and covered inside for the winter. Fishing partners are freindly. 75 foot of water is five miles offshore for 78 degree water in August. Located about thirty miles from downtown Buffalo .A swimming pool is used by the children and wives . 716 336 1111 is my cellpnone#.

Why no reports out of SBH in Buffalo?

DOCK RENTERS REALLY DO NOT FISH! -
73 F degree surface waters cause walleyes to head deep. Yet high winds bring a lot of surface dissolved oxygen there. Near surface waters do not appear on your charts as those fish scoot away from your travelling boat, no matter how slow you go. At 78 degrees the walleyes will be at 75 foot deep five miles off shore soon. Then you will see them on your screen suspended looking for bait out there.

Ohio has no closed early season on sport walleye fishing. New York State should open to year round walleye fishing as ice fishing and spring fishing can continue. The walleye numbers in Ohio have no shortage and out of state license sales from New York residents for spring contests or personal use are not harming the replacement numbers. Our regulations were instituted years ago and now are need of change to the present situation. Rivers and inland lakes are open there but we have regulations that are outdated.

With fourteen years experience as a commercial fisherman, mainly for walleye, our nets were never set on the bottom as too many non target fish were involved. All our nets were set about ten feet from the surface to avoid outboard and boat tangles with surface buoys. The main target of walleyes were smelt, perch and small walleyes for their feed. Lures for like these fish work best for suspended walleyes. Walleyes are everywhere inthe lake where water temperatures are not too high. Also disolved oxygem results are low on the bottom during mid summer heat.

Walleyes suspend from Buffalo to the Pennsylvania border water. With side planers they scatter from your boat to lures away from your boat. Lead core line or snap weights will bring your lures such as stick baits to their preferred depths.

Closer are Cattarugus Creek, Hanover , Town Ramp and Seneca Reservation Mrs. Whites Ramp and docks.

Local water temperatures are walleye right now for near shore fishing in the eastern basin area.

Sandbar was not exposed but depth situation was muddied from the blow this week. The parking lot is being repaved now. Old Lake Shore Road is closed from Sturgeon Point Road 1.6 miles East, best enter from Route 5 at Sturgeon Point Road.
