Region 7 Lake Ontario The windy conditions over the last few days have made getting out more difficult. Salmon are still spread out and are being taken in 80 to 200 feet of water. A good starting point has been in the 80 to 100 foot depths around river mouths. Flasher and flies, spoons, j-plugs and cut-bait are all working, with green and white being good colors. Things can change quickly this time of year when fish decide to head to the tributaries, so cover water looking for fish or bait if not marking fish. Oswego River The river is down from last week, and is flowing at approximately 1,660 cubic feet per second (cfs) as of 9/12. No salmon to report yet, but with rain and cooler temperatures predicted that could change soon. Remember, the bridge to Leto Island is closed, and there are mandatory personal flotation device (PFD) zones on the river. Visit Oswego County Tourism web site for more information. Salmon River The current flow is 350cfs. There have been a few salmon spotted in the lower river, but overall things are still slow. As mentioned above things can change quickly this time of year and this early season salmon fishing is really hit-or-miss. So, If not seeing fish cover water looking for them. Just a reminder that the Lower Fly Section opens on September 15th.
