The State of Fishing: Being an Ambassador

Kevin Webster — Fri, 19 Nov 2010 00:33:44 +0000

With every privilege comes great responsibility. The word responsibility has sort of lost its meaning over time, with everyone looking to duck blame, or distance themselves from bad situations that they might in fact themselves be responsible for. It’s easy to fall into that trap when you watch the news, and listen to politicians shirk …

I was fortunate enough to have a week off in September, and I spent it wandering around the Lehigh Valley/Pocono Regions of the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. A couple of things that bear mentioning to my fellow New Yorkers if they intend to visit PA to fish: 1.) If you are fishing a Pennsylvania Fish …

Saturday was the most fun I had on the water in a long long time. If you’re up for an adventure, I strongly recommend this area for a little white water, plenty of smallmouth bass, and gorgeous scenery. This has become my favorite place to fish on the planet. Whether you fish in Letchworth or …

Having spent a little more time on bigger lakes last year, I decided it was time to add a GPS/Fishfinder to my LiquidLogic Manta Ray. If you’re not familiar with that model of fishing kayak, it’s a sit on top, and mine runs 12 feet in length. EAGLE CUDA 350 S/Map Sonar/GPS Fishfinder There’s a …

Scouting Your Next Kayak Fishing Trip From Home

Kevin Webster — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 01:09:46 +0000

Sometimes even the thought of a driving trip to scout streams in this weather is discouraging. Wind chills dip below zero, ice is building up in the wheel wells of your truck, and the snow is piling up. Even if you manage to get out to a stream or lake your looking forward to fishing, …

2 really… First off, we had our largest event so far at Hemlock Lake this weekend, with a total of 9 boats in the water. A special thanks to everyone who came. The fishing was a little off that day, and the cotton wood was jamming everyones guides and reels pretty frequently. But, we had …

Nestled into the hills just a stones’ throw south of Rochester, Canadice Lake presents a wonderful opportunity for any fly fisherman who owns a kayak or a canoe. I’ve had the opportunity to dip the bow three times so far this season, and Canadice has yet to disappoint. I’ve taken 7 species on the fly …

WNY Water is Warming Up

Maybe not too much, but you sure think it would be looking out your window. I had a look at Honeoye Creek on Friday, and it looks very fishable. Was thinking of taking the kayak out for a spin there some night next week. Paul and I are heading out tomorrow, but I’m not sure …

Creek Fly Fishing in a Kayak

Kevin Webster — Fri, 09 Jan 2009 03:19:35 +0000

Well, it’s January now, and I have a full season of fly fishing from my kayak under my belt. As a beginner, I found fishing in lakes to be pretty straight forward. Yes, keepeing the line off the water behind me was problematic at first, but once I learned to keep my arm high, casting …
