Fishing Honeoye on the weekends - A warning!

[Sk8man]

My son and I tried for the eyes again last night (unsuccessfully only caught bass) fishing from shore (luckily) on a  Friday night and right from the time we started (9 PM) experiencing "party central" both on shore all over the lake and more notably on the water. I don't have a problem with responsible partying but there were numerous boats fishing with few lights lit some anchored and several "recreational" boats running full tilt in the complete darkness (with no lights at all)with the male and female occupants hooping and hollering and swearing at the top of their lungs and popping beer tops for hours and others running back and forth in and out to their cottages with more booze etc. and people shooting off fireworks. The wind was still so you could hear everything out there (conversations etc.) so it wasn't a matter of me "assuming" what was going on.  I'd be the last one to get down on folks for partying but that situation is so freaking dangerous it is absurd. My son who lives right near the lake itself said it is a weekly occurance there on weekends. Just an FYI for anyone intending to fish at night for walleyes or crappies on the weekends.

Are you just trying to keep us off the lake, so you can have it for yourself?!?!😅😅😅...jk.

I wish that were the case (and I was secretly getting into them)   Good one!

That is why I do not go there. Great place to fish but the lake is overcrowded. Be safe.

No chance . be careful there are always close calls out there a friend of mine frequents the lake..no way I'll stick to Hemlock or the much bigger trout lakes.
