Whitakers Daily Report

Posted 2/22/2015

On Sunday we finally caught a break with the weather, no wind, a mix of sun and clouds along with temperatures in the mid 20’s for most of the day. The one day warm up was great while it lasted, but the return of sub zero temp’s are expected for Monday. Slush ice was a factor in the lower end of the river and did not clear. The upper end of the river in Altmar has not been getting slush ice and is where most anglers are fishing on a daily basis. Yesterday we got mixed reports from anglers stopping into the shop, some groups got into fish, while others had a slow day with no actioin. With the recent cold temp’s most anglers have been fishing late morning through early afternoon which has been the warmest part of the day. In the upper end of the river anglers are fishing the Lower Fly Zone, Schoolhouse Pool, Wire Hole, Ellis Cove, Bovines, Trestle Pool, Refrigerator and Pineville.

In March three meetings are scheduled for the “State of Lake Ontario” Fisheries biologists from the state DEC, U.S. Geological Survey, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources biologists will make presentations, including updates on the status of trout and salmon fisheries, forage fish, stocking programs and fisheries management plans in the lake and its tributaries.
