Seasonal Activity Chart
Bluefish
Bluefish action can heat up around Sodus Point, particularly in the late summer and early fall as these voracious predators follow schools of baitfish into Lake Ontario. While bluefish are generally saltwater fish, they can occasionally be found in freshwater areas like Lake Ontario. Concentrate your efforts around the mouth of Sodus Bay and nearby structures like piers and breakwalls. These areas provide ambush points for bluefish as they hunt alewives and other forage fish. A great access point is the Sodus Point pier, which offers ample space for casting. When the blues are running, they're not picky, but casting spoons or crankbaits that mimic the local baitfish will increase your chances. Be prepared for aggressive strikes and blistering runs – bluefish are known for their fighting ability. Remember to use wire leaders to prevent bite-offs from their sharp teeth.
