how is fishing in buffalo

[Bottom bouncer]

Finally got back on the water this week after a month off due to back problems. Monday evening was a bust, trolling motor broke and we got skunked. This evening was a lot better. Fished out of the Catt in 72-80 fow. Got 11, all on harnesses and 10 were on downriggers run close to the bottom.

Has anybody been fishing out of Barcelona? Gonna be there next week. Only been as far west as the Catt this year, any info would be appreciated.. Thanks, Mark

We fished Barcelona twice last month. Pretty slow both times. Only 7 keepers. The mouth of the harbor is closing up like SP, but you can get in/out on the east end of the break wall if there is traffic. Fished Dunkirk 2 weeks ago. A lot of marks on the screen but still slow. Just 3 keepers.

Looks like another great weekend for fishing.

Same here, finally have some slow time at work and was going to fish this week but friggin windy and calling for 1-3 footers all week into the weekend. I'm busy at work next week so the weather should be great for fishing.

Jeff I remember hearing an old timer ( look who's talking)who was retrieving his boat at Sturgeon Pt. one time say " Everyone thinks that the fishing will be great every year like it has been. But the lake will have great years then a few bad years. " " That's just the way it goes".
Why do I remember that? But he was right.

Fished on the line from before condos to Pt. Abino along the line. Don't go there. Did not do good. One channel cat and when I was releasing him the hoop from my net came off the handle. Good bye net. So if anyone catches a net hoop let me know.

We fished Dunkirk yesterday. Caught 9. 6 were 3 1/2 pounds plus. 90-100 FOW NW out of the harbor.

Fished out of the Catt this morning. Ended up with 5. Tried depths from 67 - 90 fow but never really marked many fish. Heard from the guy that worked the launch that the guys that did real well early were in real shallow (below 60 fow).

Went out of Safe Harbor. Went out the south gap in front of the windmills to Seneca Shoals then to the line. Along the line to the condos and past the condos. NOT A SINGLE HIT!
What a nice day for a boat ride.
