Region 7: 

 

Lake Ontario and Bays

 

With the high-water levels there are no wake zones for many Lake Ontario shorelines and bays. For information on these, please view the County Sheriff’s website at https://www.cayugacounty.us/155/Sheriffs-Office.  For information on Lake Ontario Boat Launch Sites please view at https://www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/117169.html. 

 

As the cold water has been blown around, Salmon are now scattered with fish being taken from 100 to 500 feet of water fishing 45 to 130 feet down. When fish are found, Salmon fishing continues to be good. Basically, it’s a cover water until you mark bait and fish. Spoons, flashers and flies, and cut-bait (meat rigs) are all still working.
