how is fishing in buffalo

[Bottom bouncer]

Fished out of the Catt again this morning. Tried everything from 60 - 85 fow. Only had 4 bites in 4 and half hours. Landed 2 on stick baits run at 60 over 80. Marked a lot of fish, but I was clearly doing something wrong as the other guys at the fish cleaning table did pretty good. No limits, but much better than 2.

Do you think that they were fishing for Muskies? Or that other species that hasn't been around this end lately - WALLEYE?

Gotta be walleye. I used to know a guy that would fish walleyes into Nov around Donnelly's wall, but that was quite a few years ago.

Walleye bite has been decent casting from shore after dark.

I’m all winterized up now. Had a blast pounding some of them jumbos out from the Catt.

Hopefully going to be a nice long and cold hard water season. Til then, the Crappies are on notice.

No. My last few launches were out of Catt Creek, messing around with perch in that 55-65 water column.

So, have a quick question. This year was my 1st year with lead core. I was running an 8’6” Eyecon off each side. I want to add a 3rd (maybe even a 4th as well) presentation come next year. Both rods are on the sport trac system that Lund has on their boats.

That 3rd rod? Would one recommend say a 6ft rod with lead core off the side or a non lead core rod off the back with a snap weight?

[captainjoe]

Good choices. The more rods in the water equates to increasing your catch percentage. As long as you are legal. Last year you couldn't get all your lines in the water without getting a fish or two. I usually run two dipsys and lead core off one side and one dipsy and two leadcore off the other. Sometimes a downrigger too depending on how many people in the boat.
I'm all shrink wrapped. and already miss going out there. Gonna be a L O N G winter.
