Orleans County New York

Lake Ontario

Today is Wednesday July 13, 2016. The Erie Canal Derby is in full swing with some great fish already on the leader board. With 4 more days left in the derby there is still plenty of time to get out there and catch a winner. Speaking of derbies, the LOC Summer Derby is just past the half way point and the 30 pound mark for Chinook salmon has already been broken. The waters of Lake Ontario off Orleans County have been very active with a great mix of fish but Chinook salmon has made up the majority of the catches. Fishing has moved out to the 400 to 450 feet of water range but there are still some fish being produced on those inside waters. What started out slowly has sure picked up to some great fishing on the big lake. Lake Alice is still producing some nice catches of Crappie and some great catches of bass. The water clarity has improved greatly over the past week or two and now shows a visibility of 5 or 6 feet. On the Erie Canal catches of both Catfish and Sheep head are being reported all along the system. Give a gift of the great outdoors to our youth by taking a kid fishing. From Point Breeze on Lake Ontario, the World Fishing Network's Ultimate Fishing Town USA and the rest Of Orleans County, Let's make everyday a great fishing day right here in Orleans County.
