Any Advice - Genesee River? How to Fish

[scramp]

I'm going to start trying some of the access sites between Scottsville and maybe Avon.....that stretch.

 

Any advice at all?  I have NO EXPERIENCE river fishing.  Don't evern know how to properly present a minnow bait if threw it.....

I always fished the gorge under driving park for yrs. Best fishery in the world. Black was always good. 3" black power grub jigging and black rooster tails never failed me.

Head down to the driving park in avon. Go to the horse track North end walk strait across the field to the north you'll find were the coneses.? Outlet runs in the river. Fish on the edge of the muddy. And clear water. Shiners on stealleader hook. Bobber. You'll catch fish

Marcstevens, thank you!  I coach baseball down there 3x/weekly and never knew it ran back there.  I might try that.

 

As far as fishing the actual river, I'm DONE!  I've thrown crankbaits, worms on bottom, worms with split shots and everything else.  Only thing I've caught are rocks and lost some of my best baits.  FORGET the river.  Heading for the canal to try next.
