how is fishing in buffalo

[walleyerick]

I have heard these names for a long time but where exactly are they ? Can anyone give me descriptions and/or coordinates ?

Seneca has a red marker bouy on it if you head towards hamburg/pinehurst area watch for it I think about 4-5 miles outof the sbh. Meyers reef is just on the buffalo side of 18 mile creek, there is an inner & a outter reef.

Made it out perch fishing on Sunday with the family had a nice time and the perch were biting. We launched out of sturgeon late, about 10am, wanted to wait and see what the weather looked like first, just decided to drive out and try launching and be prepared to turn around if bad weather set in. There weren't many boats out at all! Main group I joined first only had 4 boats out there. We stopped there but only seemed to be catching small perch and moved on to a couple other spots, ended up only being a mile away from sturgeon and marking fish on the finder. BTW I did split my screen and zoomed up to 6X and 8X and that worked well, was easily able to tell when fish were near. The schools seemed to be roaming around a lot. Anyway, check out these pics of the big pig my daughter caught. It was 13.5 inches, but a real fatty. I've caught bigger but not as hefty. This was not a female full of eggs, no eggs and I pulled out two fish from it's stomach in the next pic. She must have dropped the minnow right in front of it's mouth! The top one almost looks like a small goby. We were in about 52 ft of water, using live and salted emerald shiners with equal results. Here is a pic:

And what was inside:

I fished all around the red buoy (from the buoy and WSW from it) and the bottom goes from 20' to 32' according to my sonar. Lots of weeds there. No walleye though last Sun. So now I know where Seneca Shoals are. Better to launch out of SP and head NE toward Wanakah ?
