Last summer, I had posted an article about fishing posted property from a kayak… Moreover, what you could and couldn’t do based on current interpretations of New York State law. (Your state may vary, so be sure to look into it.) As it happens, it looks like the DEC website is still referencing the 1997 …

Early Season Kayak Fly Fishing on Canadice Lake
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 …
Another failed bass fishing trip…
The water is really still too cold here for good bass fishing, but I tried anyway in a Lake Ontario Tributary west of Rochester, NY, for an hour or so after work this evening. I’m ashamed to admit that I failed… All I caught was a large yellow perch and this dink brown trout… Lesson …
Boy + kayak + fishing pole + water = ?
…Today it equaled this… My son caught this 3lb smallie today. It put up a good fight despite the water being so cold. This lake was still mostly under ice last weekend and was 42 degrees F today. He was pretty happy with his first bass of the year! Link to this post!

- Branching Out May 14, 2012Clearly, a whole mess of us are from the Rochester area. Makes sense, since when Dr. Shipman roped me into doing this, we both lived here, and still do. And that's great. I'd like to make sure however that we acknowledge our friends from the Buffalo, Syracuse, and Binghamton areas. There's plenty of great fishing in those regions, and while w […]Kevin Webster
- Thank You for Supporting Vets May 13, 2012I'd like to thank all who came out today to support veterans, like myself. Paul, please thank the RIT Fishing Club, on my behalf, for hosting the event. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and got a chance to fish a bit with one of the RIT lads, Mike. In the process I was able be a part of what I believe was his first kayak fish, which was just as cool is if I […]Ben Beals
- Lost Model Sailboat at Mendon Ponds May 11, 2012Someone emailed me that they were at Mendon Ponds last weekend and their model sailboat lost touch with their radio, sailed across the lake and into the brush. They went to get a boat to go retrieve it and couldn't find it. (He didn't say which pond.) I'm not planning on fishing there this weekend but thought that if anyone here was going and […]Bill Blevins
