DEC Announces Record Fishing on Lake Ontario in 2018
The
New York State Department of Environmental Conservation
announced that fishing for trout and salmon in Lake Ontario has set multiple records this year, with veteran anglers reporting some of the best fishing in decades. The boat catch rate for Chinook salmon from April to June 2018 was 227% above the previous five-year average. Brown trout and Coho catches were up as well, indicating a very promising fall run.
