No need to buy Powder Mill. I brought up at the state of the lake meeting years ago about seeing if the owners of the hatchery would contract out raising our kings or leasing out the space to do it. It was an instant No. Caledonia, Powder Mill, and any other hatchery is totally off the table with the DEC. They have said it for years at the state of the lake meetings. The other issue I can see them bringing up with opening another hatchery is there will be less salmon returning to Altmar Hatchery and it will be harder for the DEC to meet egg quotas. Remember the egg shortage year? I believe us pen rearing all of the tributaries allotment of salmon stocked will help bring a staging fishery back to the West end. This is why pen projects are the MOST IMPORTANT projects on the lake that benefit all of us (Lake, Pier or Stream fishermen). Get involved and help keep this fishery world class!

The crappie seem up and down from year to year. There is a window in the spring and then they disappear.

Conesus perch made a decent showing a couple winters ago and returned to ghosts again. The perch fishing there is nothing like it was 40 years ago. IMO, it is a waste of time and there are way better places to find them. Walleye can be found around the weed lines, or suspended on alewife mid lake. Night fishing them along the weed lines can be awesome. I used to throw husky jerks along weed lines adjacent to sharp drops in the fall and boat a couple every night. Long Point was always good to me at night. Also Cottonwood point.

The pen projects were on track the last couple of years and the DEC is having us pen ALL the fish stocked at each tributary. This should make a difference. They are also putting more effort into the pen projects. The change came a couple of years ago when the new hatchery manager took over. There is now more consistency from project to project, funding available for the projects and the biggest plus is projects that have high temp issues are the first to receive pen fish.

This year class of mature fish is from the spring that pen rearing did not happen due to water temps being too high. The fish were direct stocked. Without pen rearing, fish do not imprint on the trib they were stocked in. The majority run back to the Salmon River. The pen rearing clip study proved this year ago. There is some straying back to the salmon river even if they are pen reared but is is way less. I was told by one of the hatchery personnel that is caused because they are already imprinted on the salmon river before being pen reared. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
