wayne Wayne County Fishing Report for February 20, 2018

[Wayne County]

Streams - Stream fishing was great this past weekend with steelies coming from Maxwell Creek. Rainfall won’t be as bad as predicted, however the streams will be flowing.

 

The best place for Maxwell might be the northern section where the current is slower. There is plenty of parking on both sides of Lake Road. Egg sacs are the best presentation for the steelhead.

 

Bays - Sodus Bay has 8 to 10 inches of ice, however temps in the 60s plus rain will eat away solid ice. Stay away from the creeks and don’t even try to fish near open water near the loop. The south end is still safe… but again… that can change quickly.

 

If you are not confident about where you haul your shanty, don’t fish. Breaking through ice can be a major problem and often fatal for ice anglers.
