Cayuga Lake out of Myers Park 8/9
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't happier making the 10 minute drive to Myers Park for a day on Cayuga Lake, as opposed to the 50 minute drive to fish Sampson State Park. Cayuga does feel more like home, at least in August. ...

Skaneateles Lake 8/6
Guided Tony and Pete for a full-day on Skaneateles Lake. They've been fishing various waterways throughout the area with mixed results. I talked to Tony and thought that Skaneateles Lake would be the best bet for them to learn. I showed them the entire lake...

Guided Lisa and Alex today for a 1/2-day trip starting at 7:30 am. Winds were forecasted to crank up out of the northwest to over 20 mph (and I've seen that movie before and know how it ends...) so I decided that it was better...

Jigging for lake trout and occasional bonus fish (rainbows, browns and salmon) is in full-swing now in the Finger Lakes region. Seneca Lake is providing the best lake trout jigging. Cayuga Lake is now in prime shape as well with good water clarity and plenty...

Seneca Lake out of Sampson State Park 7/20 + Cayuga Lake out of Myers Park 7/21
As I drove over to Seneca Lake Monday morning it was pretty clear to me that the Cayuga Lake algae bloom had subsided. A text from Angling Zone friend/client Zach confirmed this. The green flakes appeared around 3 weeks ago. Sunday's wind and the accompanying...
