Are still a hard find in our old fishing spots on the lake such as in front of Hedges. Shipbuilders creek and in front of Webster pier show good signs of comeback using bass minnows or soft shell crabs. Remember KEEP BAIT OFF THE BOTTOM (unless your gobie fishing)

Large Mouth Bass
Once again, any cove in the bay will produce these fish. soft shell crabs or a top water lure of your choice.

Have seemed to slow down considerably, however you can still catch a few using perch minnows, spikes or wax worms.

Sheep Head

Large in size and are being caught off the outlet bridge

Perch

Small Mouth Bass

This 4th of July weekend is producing some nice smallmouth bass in the Irondequoit bay outlet. Soft shell crabs seem to be a favorite in the early morning hours before the boat traffic. Sheep head are also weighing in at good sizes.

Large Mouth Bass

Any cove in the bay will produce these fish. Once again soft shell crabs or a top water lure of your choice.

Rock Bass

Some of these rock bass are bigger than the small mouth we are catching. Although few in numbers, the size makes up for the quantity. Fish for these critters in between the rocks with soft shell crabs.

Sheep Head

Small in size but are being caught off the outlet bridge

Perch

Good luck with these fish. Small in size, yet A few are being caught off the end of Irondequoit pier. This changes daily so we might have to wait till they come in again.

Walleye

On the east side of the bay, north of the 104 bridge fish are being caught with crawler harnesses. Don’t expect to limit on this specie because numbers seem to be down.

The fishing for  Perch  from the Genesee River piers has been very good, anglers are catching them with minnows, people are just starting to catch sheephead from the piers also. Smallmouth Bass are biting in Long Pond and Cranberry Pond on leaches, crayfish and white jig heads with white mister twister tails.

Salmon & Trout fishing continues to be good in the lake off of Rochester and Irondequoit Bay, Brown trout in 25 to 40 foot of water, Lake Trout in good numbers out deep in 100 to 150 ft of water, a few salmon are also being caught. A 24 lb 10 oz Salmon was weighed in on June 18 for the  summer LOC derby  and is currently in first place.
