When the wind is blowing from the North Wise fisherman do not go forth, When the wind is blowing from the south, it blows the hook in the fishes mouth, When the wind is from the east good fishing is the least, When the wind is from the west , Then fishing is the best.
Good Morning, It is Thursday, September 2 and another great day for fishing. Those fish are biting good today. There are a lot of big salmon being caught right now on the west end. For some, yesterday wasn’t so good down at the bar, but then for others it was phenomenal. Killing Time had more than 50 fish on yesterday and said it was the best day they ever had fishing Lake Ontario. Not bad for fishing here over 25 years! The lake is still in good shape, picking up a little bit. If you check out that weather report, now is the time to get out there and do some fishing. Same report as yesterday, nothing has changed. Have a great day!
Good Morning, It is Wednesday, September 1st and just a week away from school starting for most people here. The weather is just awesome. It is hot and today is a cooker. I would enjoy the next couple of days as much as possible due to some unpredictable weather coming our way. With hurricane Earl blasting through the Atlantic and a cold front coming in from the west, the marine forecast for the weekend isn’t looking so fine. That could be good news for Richard Priest of Blossburg, Pennsylvania who reeled in a 39.08 pound king on Big Fatty this last weekend. (see pics below). Big Fatty also won the salmon division in the Olcott Weekly. Get those boats going the next couple of days because we all know what the
Marine Forecast
means.
Fishing is about to change this weekend as the lake is most likely going to roll over. If you are fishing today through Friday, they have been doing well offshore in 450-500 fow on steelhead. Bright colors, chartruese, yellows and oranges have been working great out there. Closer to shore, many starting a north south troll in 60 fow near the red barn and working out to 260 and back catching some nice kings on cut bait, flies and spoons in green and white and Spin Doctors. Now, rumor has it that fishing the trench down at the Niagara bar is giving up those really big kings on flies, cut bait and Spin Doctors. Careful not to lose your stuff there with those drops. Most all are finding temp 100 feet down. Those 74-77 degree lake temps have been heating things up if you live by the lake. Temps have been much hotter than they are a few miles inland.
You might find that fishing off the piers in Olcott or Wilson is pretty decent the next couple of days as the fish know the weather coming better than we do. The weather is always a prediction and is often wrong although Hurricane Earl might give up some of his winds to the waters in our area, making a bbq more fun than trolling. Good luck to all fishing and have a great day!
