how is fishing in buffalo

[captainjoe]

I finally got out today. Went for a boat ride with the wife. Had lunch drifting over Evans Bar. I didn't put a line in the water. I don't think that qualify as a skunk. What a day. Glad that i didn't listen to the weatherman. I did see many minnows up high. Also i saw something?? About 6 - 8" long. Brownish. Small spots with 4 small legs??? It was in the surface. I thought it was dead. But t threw some water at it it went below the surface. Mud puppy????? What do you think??

Yeah it was probably a mud puppy. There was a big die off here a few years ago, they were all over the beach, I think at sunset? Can't remember which one. Kind of looked like this?

I haven't see one in years. We used to catch them every once in a while bottom bouncing for walleye on Chautauqua

Yes! That's what it looked like. Thanks.

Fished yesterday & today, yesterday from Dunkirk to silvercreek & today buffalo to the condos got 3 white bass in two days ! We gave ourselves a new name " We Suck Charters" I guess its time to start perching for us!

Wow for reel trolled through all of us on Monday in 70fow and did well.

[FOR REEL?]

COPO are you the guy we were talking to out there? I really hope I wasn't being too rude trolling so close to the perch fishermen.

Lineman we all have days like that, I know I do. You'd think with all the time on the water you would at least run across one starving fish by accident. I think when the boards here get quiet is when the fishing is not so good.

Maybe true about when the board is quiet the fishing is bad. We only saw 2 other boats today & only 3 trailers in the parking lot . Yesterday I was the only 1 in the lot, & only 2 trailers when I came in Dunkirk at 2:30 pm.. Seems like something wrong for this time of year.
