Oneida Lake 10/19

[W.W.IV.]

Well I took Chowder Out to fill a cooler with perch and eye's yesterday. We didn't find the perch,only half a dozen 9"ers a pickerel and a small mouth. Its going on 5:00 so I aimed the boat the bay my son kill them on the night before and only had one hit.I headed back to Maple Bay before it got to dark to find the launch. Hey Andy thats why it doesn't say expert after my name. Oh, my son saw us leaving the bay,said they hit a little later last night,he lost one and his buddy got five, Oh well. .

If you could fill the cooler every time you go we'd have to stop calling it fishing & start callingl it 'shopping'! Hey, it was still a gorgeous fall day on the water -Andy

In spring it was so easy to catch fish on Oneida- Largemouth, Smallmouth, Pickerel. Now that it's fall and fishing should be even better- I went out a couple days ago and didn't get one hit. Yesterday I went out about 3 hours and had one hit- a 17'' Smallmouth. But others are having success- the walleye night bite(I don't really care for night fishing) and some say they are catching tons of perch.
