Fishing from the piers

[gratefultodd]

When does the pier fishing pick up for salmon? I was thinking to give it a try this year was wondering if now is a good time to start. Probably be fishing Genesee piers Rochester.

From now until mid October for kings.  Browns and steelies the rest of the year.

Sweet thanks

I figured to through cleos and moonshines ,and egg sacks under a bobber. Does that sound good?

[GAMBLER]

Egg sacs on the bottom with the beer bottle set up is best.  You are spot on with the spoon selection.

I’m gonna be heading out to either olcott or Wilson this weekend with a load of Cleo’s and moonshines. Haven’t seen anyone get em from the south shore yet, but looks like some have gotten on up by Toronto. Couple folks posted last week they were getting kings in 70 fow. I think it’s still a little early but it wouldn’t be crazy to hook into a couple eager ones. Good luck!

Thanks good luck to you as well

What are the favorite Moonshine or Little Cleo glow patterns that everyone likes?  For moonshine the most  recommendations I've seen are for are Agent Orange, Happee Meal, Wonderbread, Bloody Nose, Flounder Pounder

 

So many to choose from, what would be your top 3?

The colder nights will cool the stream waters and then the trout and salmon migration begin.

I’m by no means an expert but I tend to stray away from any natural patterns. They are essentially done feeding this time of the year so you gotta get their attention. All of those recommendations seem great. I’m a fan of the bloody nose pattern, but the hot color seems to change year by year and day by day.

Glow spoons and plugs work well in darker conditions.

Went out to olcott Sunday AM— nobody was getting anything and only a couple folks said they heard of anything being caught so far. No porpoising fish or any signs of em. I had 1 hit but no idea what it was- quick thud, half second run and it was off. Lot of people have been getting pike so could've been one of those
