Cayuga County Fishing Report for October 27 - November 10, 2017

The fishing report below is made available from the Central New York Fishing Hotline for October 27 through November 10 at http://www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/9218.html.

 

Please visit that site for more information or to follow links.

 

Reports will be harder to come by because many anglers have pulled their boats for the season, so there will likely be few changes to the report in coming weeks. Oswego and Wayne Counties have weekly fishing hotlines on their web sites as well and would be another good option for fishing reports; Oswego County (visitoswegocounty.com); and Wayne County (waynecountytourism.com). Though Onondaga County doesn't have a weekly fishing report, their web site is another good source of fishing information in the region (fishonondagacounty.com).

 

Veterans Day, November 11, has been designated as a Free Fishing Day. Anyone can fish the freshwater of the state and no license is required that day. As no license is required, it's a great time to take a friend or family member fishing.

 

A reminder that from Nov 1 to May 1, all persons aboard any pleasure vessel less than 21 feet long must wear a Personal Floatation Device (PFD) while underway. For more information on boating regulations please view the NYS Boater's Guide. A link can be found in the righthand column under ‘Links Leaving DEC’s Website.’ Also, as a word of warning, many of the dock structures at the DEC boat launches will be removed shortly, or may have been removed already. So, please plan accordingly.

 

April 1st was the start of the new Freshwater Fishing Regulation Guide, April 1, 2017-March 31, 2018. You can obtain a copy from a licensing agent or view it at Summary of Freshwater Fishing Regulations.
