Planning out my summer today, and here’s the first spot that I absolutely must fish this summer. (Also, I’ll be showing off a new kayaking toy very soon… stay tuned!)
The Lake Shores Marshes Wildlife Management Area
Website
The DEC indicates that this spot is rife with smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, and Northern Pike, which definitely piqued my interest. Also, there appears to be a boat launch on a creek there (Black Creek actually, although not the one I’m familiar with).
The rest of this week is suspect, weather wise, so I will be doing this one next week.

Apparently also plenty of birds, muskrats, and other critters to look at while I’m paddling along, so I look forward to this trip. This will be a full day trip I would imagine, so I’ll keep you posted on when I go.
