Seneca Perch

[sodus_guy_09]

Usually fish Cayuga but going to give Seneca a try this year. Is there ice down as far as Roy's Marina? Been years since I fished there but that's where I launched.

The ice never formed that far down it was about to the Hobart/William Smith dock at the furthest. The rest of the north end has been and remains a big question mark as there are some openings in the canal area on the east side and if they decide to start pulling water the whole ice shelf will be history.

Anyone tried putting a boat in for perch yet? I don't how soon everyone starts down there

Fellows are catching perch from the shore using long casting rods with heavy sinkers like two ouncers.

There have been guys in boats out at Sampson out from the breakwall right along last few weeks but from what I hear the action has slowed right down now....the same casting from the wall.

Could you do that from the pier at Sampson? Last I heard it was frozen

The marina itself has been frozen but the lake side off the break wall has been open water all along

[sodus_guy_09]

Well that explains it then. I only know of toys marina for bait down that way. Anyplace to get minnows near the park or should I run up to sodus for them

_{Anyone been out on the open water?  Is Samson's launch open?  Thanks for any info.}

[laker taker]

Went out Sunday afternoon...stopped at Roy's for bait and ran to and launched at Severne Point wide open and ice free. Didn't find them. Guys were launching and running to Sampson on the open water from Roy's. On the drive back up it looked like floating ice in two large clusters, north of Dresden. Could have been snow geese hard to tell, guessing it was ice, as it would have been two large large flocks. (so be careful...)

Sampson is open, I launched there Sunday morning.  As for the fishing I managed one pike.
