Notice: Due to high water levels, a local state of emergency order for a “No Wake Zone” has been established for boats 1,000 feet from the Lake Ontario shoreline and tributaries. All motorized boats within 1,000 feet of the shoreline and within these waterways must operate at an idle speed.

 

Notice: Now through Labor Day, New York State is offering free fishing on Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River. Also, 30 state parks along the shores are offering half-price vehicle entry and camping.

 

Lake Ontario/Oswego River report:

 

The wind was a factor a few days ago but conditions have settled down and are expected to remain that way through the weekend. Anglers are finding fish in a variety of depths with spoons, flies and flashers, and meat rigs working well.
