Oneida was on fire a couple of weeks ago but have no report since.

was up there last weekend. Found them in 4-8' of water. The fish I was catching were prespawn. Lipless cranks, tubes, spinnerbaits, etc. all caught fish. Keep searching until you find them. Mostly smallies, but a largemouth and pickeral in some of the weedy areas. I never found the big fish, but some of the other boats with me did. Weeds are starting to come in, but aren't too thick yet. Water temps were 59 degrees.

Thanks for the report Steve.....sounds like you had a great time
I pass over Oneida every June on my way to Black Lake, one of these days I'll actually fish there

Great job, it sounds like the lake is really hot right now. Everyone I have talked to said they did well up there this weekend. I made the mistake of not going up there, hit Onondaga and the Seneca River, had some tough fishing with most of the fish post spawn. I won't make the same mistake this weekend.
