Oneida Lake in NYS CLOSED to boating

[Billy Bob]

Yep, just before the opener the county sheriffs closed several waterways including NYS walleye factory to boating because of flood conditions....no walleye fishing for me on opening day (Saturday)...not a good fishing year so far with all this rain and high waters almost everywhere in NYS....

You'll not be fishing because of one lake?

I'm heading up to my son's new house for the long weekend to do some work with him on the house...he's only 45 minutes from Oneida Lake....so it will be just a work party weekend....I will hopefully return in a few weeks to fish with him..

Thats gotta be the worst case of bad luck ive heard in a while. Although you could always try the husky jerk bite from shore at dusk.

Same here in south east Ohio. Ohio rivers been up over the ramps and parking lots for 2 months basically, same with the local lakes can't even get in the parking lots. Been waiting all winter to get the boat out waters in the mid 50s' its killin me.
