Half pole you found your guy. Jim is great people.
The word on the street is they put a dock in at Sturgeon Pt. this morning to be able to launch.
I just got my bill, the other day, for Sturgeon Point. It happens every year at this time. Even if there is still ICE on the lake.
I think I sent you a pm back. Never sent one before so not sure. Don't have computer , just a phone, and screen is small to see everything
Hi Fishkiller:
I am hoping to pick up a couple of shark torpedos at the WNY show in Hamburg. Will Cuda have a booth? Also, do you happen to know anything about the schedule? I have not found anything online.
Thanks,
Joe

Hi, I am new here, Fyi ,my buddy fished out of sturgeon pt. 2 wks ago for perch. He had no problem getting his 20' over the sand bar at the enterance. He fished from the pt. to evangola wall in 20'-60' fow marked all kinds of suspended fish but did not get 1 all day. That was the day before the big blow, maybe had something to do with the 0 catch. I fished the lower Niag. that same day got 0 along with everyone else. I hope with the warm weather/no ice that the launches & docks open early this year. I know that Sturgeon pt. didn't open until the 2nd wk. of walleye last year.
I heard the other day that " they are catching Perch in the River " I asked if it was the upper or lower? He didn't know. Anybody hear anything about this?
Thanks for the help Bailey, fishkiller, and milt
capt they use to catch perch at the foot of ferry
Another place for Perch was at Ontario St. In the Black Rock Channel right where the channel runs along the 190, almost across from the Chevy plant. I drove to West Marine on Niagara St last weekend. I took a ride by the launch at Ontario St. There was some small logs & twigs in the launch / ramp area. If you wanted to launch there you would have to move them. I didn't see anyone fishing in that area.
capt thats what i meant ontario st thats a good place for shore fishing
I just was by Sturgeon Pt. Yes there is one launching dock in the water. There was one truck with an empty trailer in the parking lot. I could not see where the boat was. It was a single axle trailer.
i talked to guy today he said that there was a few boats out this morning
The water temp is up to 37 deg. And 61 days until May 15th when the marinas officially open. Who's counting?
I am ready i know that. Think sunday should be the shake down run on lake o . 75 degrees is forecast kinda hard to not take advantage of march weather like that especially if its a southern wind .
Is anyone doing any perching? I was thinking of heading out in a week or so. Any suggestions? I would launch out of sturgen. Thanks
Here is a great article on Lead Core fishing. Some applies to us some doesnt http://www.fishing411.net/2/post/201...-romanack.html
FYI, perch are being caught out of Sturg.pt. Today a friend got 130 in 57 fow. & two days ago they got 100 over 53 fow. & were done by 11:30 am. All caught right out in front of the pt. I will be there tomorrow am. !!
Hey thanks for the perch info ill be out there soon!!!!
First time out this year and it sure was nice to be fishing again. Parking lot was full of trailers. Sturgeon had 2 docks (3 lanes) in and my 19 ft IO had no problem getting in/out with the sand. Very foggy today, even with bright sunshine, would have been pretty screwed without gps to get home. We stopped at the convention about 1 mile out around 8:30am and I counted 20 boats out there even with fog, nobody catching much fish and we caught 1 perch and 1 smallmouth, then moved further out to a spot where 1 other boat was I've tried before and caught about 25 perch, quit before noon. Not great but still good. (we started that spot about 9:30am) Rumor is that sturgeon will be closed soon for dredging. Water temp was 37 degrees. That bass I pulled up from 55 ft was as pale as some inner cave fish, really weird and eyes bulging out from pressure. It floated quite a while before reviving enough to swim down.
Unbelievable march day of fishing nice weather, calm seas awesome!
So I noticed people netting minnows by the docks, anyone know how long that goes? Also are they there right at dawn?
Fished Sat. very foggy ,got 30 nice perch biggest was 14.5" .Had a 50/50 spilt of males /females. fished 52-55 fow. Two boats clam they had over 100 ea. Plan on going Tues. am.
went by yhe sbh today they put a ramp in by the restuarnt 7trailors parked i know i pull my boat out we get 6ft of snow lol
The lake hit 40° today. We went on a shakedown run yesterday in my buddies starcraft. The lake was dead calm. We launched at small boat harbor and ran out towards seneca shoal, there were about 40 boats out there perch fishing. It felt like late june out there.
Fishkiller . do you know if any perch were being caught out of the smb. towards seneca shoal? And is it ok to launch at the smb. thanks
Yes they are catching perch there and over by Sturgeon Pt. also. And yes there is a dock in at SBH near Dougs Dive, thats where we launched.
Fishkiller - how did you do? Any fish?
thanks for info.
We didnt fish Joe just ran my buddies boat.
I'm in Fla. Won't get the boat in two weeks. Who would have thought we would have this kind of weather! I would have asked for it sooner.
That really sucks :(Quote:

No wonders its been so quiet here you guys both are out of town.
Yeah soon be time to get busy chasing eyes and working fishkiller so making the best of it now. This last week or so was great did hook a few browns boat ran good all was in order. It still catches fish and would of caught more than the 2 out of 4 if lake would've been calmer and if my brother would've gotten up and been on time.
