Black Creek Churchville 5 6 2008 X marks the Spot

Black Creek Churchville 5 6 2008, originally uploaded by Fish Gator.

Also from that little feeder stream in Churchville. I’m digging through some maps trying to find the name of it.

This is just upstream of where I saw a pretty decent sized snapping turtle chewing on a carp skeleton. Not sure if he was responsible for killing the carp or no.

The Must Hit List for my Summer Kayak Fishing

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

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.

Ready to go kayak fishing now?

First Kayak Trip 2008

With the newer NYS Bass regulations, I decided to head out this morning onto Black Creek. Photos when I return.

Plan is to look for bass, get some photos, and hopefully take a few on the fly rod.
