October-March Fishing

October-March Fishing


Fishing this time of year focused on 3 different areas, for the most part.

  • trout and salmon in the tributaries
  • perch and panfish
  • Pike/Walleye

I won’t really talk much about stream fishing the trout/salmon.  The tactics are pretty similar no matter where you go.  Eggs, small maribou jigs (1/16-1/64) in green/red/pink/black/orange, and worms will work.  A lot depends on the time of the year.  Stream fishing is done mostly on Maxwell creek, which is 3 miles west of Sodus point.

Above you can find links for Perch and Pike fishing.  They can be caught on open water and through the ice.
