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.

April-May-June Rochester 2011 Trout and Salmon
By · CommentsThe fishery has been very good to us on the front side of the season, the weather a different story. April right off the bat served up some of the best Brown Trout fishing ever. Great shoreline fishing both East and West of the Genesee produced a mixed bags of Browns, Coho’s and Steelhead. This inshore fishery carried later than normal into and through the month of May and transitioned later in the month to an offshore Steelhead bite as well with some Kings showing up. Early June we still had a good inshore fishery with Browns and offshore surface breaks providing anglers with good Steelhead, Coho and Laker top water action. As usual at some point in June we go through a transition period as the surface temps push down setting up a thermocline and the fish are scattered as they try to find their comfort zone. Stay tuned for more updates.
