Cayuga Long PT.

My guess is 1 ft of water off the end of dock. . Hopefully I save someone the trip.

Going to be interesting launching this spring on many of these launches on the lakes. Water awfully low about everywhere.

Any word on the Mexico Launch?
I will be coming up for a couple days for steelhead in a couple weeks and was thinking of bringing the boat for day #2 if the weather looks ok.

Looks like we will need a couple feet before we splash there. Thanks for the heads up.

Current lake level is no different than any other year. Lake level is consistent year over year at this time. History shows that Cayuga starts its annual rise around the 2nd week of March. I’ve been out 12 times since December 15th, tomorrow will trip 13. Been using Myers all trips, even busting out some ice last sunday saving myself a trip around the lake to Taughannock as I normally would have to do in January and February. Loving this mild winter. If there ever was a year to enjoy the winter fishery this was it!

This will give you a good comparison to last year.

Cool. Each off these lakes can be considerably different from one another though as some such as Canandaigua or Keuka don't have the amount of water flowing into it as Cayuga does from Seneca and Seneca does from Keuka. A lot more control on the lakes hooked up to the canal system.
