    How's the bite been?

    Headed up to the finger lake region this coming weekend for a whole week. Wondering what to expect. Anybody have any reports? Water temps got to be dropping a little bit.

    It was tough on Onieda Sunday. 1 nice keeper smallie, 2 dinkable largies and a whole bunch of perch, little bass. Had a small walleye and 2 huge pickerel too.

    Was on a small mountain lake this past weekend, car top only launch. Me and my dad were the only people out there and caught over 20. Best 5 was around 15lbs. Only fished for 4 hrs. Water temp is ridiculously warm for this time of year. I think it’s still mid to low 50s

    Salt city had a open tournament up there sunday took over 19lbs to make top 10 over 21 to make top 5 and 2 bags over 22. 22.09 won it. reports as murph reported high 50's pretty much everywhere All this cooler rain were getting should bring that down however.

    Welp, that's humbling. I obviously was not fishing the right way.
