From the Sandy pond channel maintenance association: NY Marine Services have pulled all the buoys in the channel until a permanent solution can be found we will not be able to get a channel marked even if we dredge a full channel at the required 4’. We need people to share this information and to contact elected officials if this makes you angry or upset. SPCMA has always tried to maintain a channel by themselves and the help of the Town of Sandy Creek - At this time State and Federal funding is desperately needed!!! Future dredging could place sand on the North and South alternating … Dredge before April 1 st and in the Fall … get as much sand out of the channel and pond as we can. Place sand on private lands to the North and South. This ultimately will restore the barrier beach that protects the pond. We will be getting a form letter out for people to send. The 4 th of July is fast approaching and we need people to know there are no markers out there except for the rocks pile on the lakeside. Boat safely and have have a great weekend. Be careful using the inlet very shallow and now unmarked by buoys Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Unless the cheater spoon is fixed it will continue to slide down your main line until it reaches the main line release. I pop my main out of the release and let it float up without reeling. Generally misses the free slide cheater. I have also had hits as main is rising in the water column Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

here's the DEC explanation for all the dead alewives along the shore . This is what we used to see in the 50's and 60's , before the introduction of the salmonids https://www.localsyr.com/news/state-news/thousands-of-dead-fish-line-the-lake-ontario-shoreline-dec-explains/

Until the salmon fishing kicks into gear , a nice bucket of perch will do nicely Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

There are still a few jack perch to be had on the river Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Back in the 50’s and 60’s ( before the introduction of the salmonids) the beaches around our camp on Sandy Pond were ankle deep in dead alewives we would rake them into piles and burn them. I can still smell them. Lol Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
