Guided Mark I. for a full-day trip starting around 9:15 am. It was my first time out of Myers Park this season and debris was piled up high alongside the ramps. A man we talked to said that the park staff had pulled wood out...

Guided Larry and his wife Jenn today for a half-day trip starting at 9:30 am. We had foggy conditions and a decent north wind to start. For the first hour of the trip, we stayed close to the south end of the lake until the...

Seneca Lake out of Watkins Glen 1/8 midday

Seneca Lake out of Watkins Glen 11/25 PM
Got out here for just over 3 hours starting at noon. The weather will be taking a turn for the worse on Thanksgiving. After that, we're into normal (cold!) early December conditions. Although I didn't have what I wanted weather-wise for fly-fishing salmon, I decided...
