Flounder
Though Fairport, NY is not a saltwater location, and therefore not a place to find Flounder. If you are looking for flatfish, you will need to travel to a coastal area. However, if you are looking for freshwater fishing opportunities in Fairport, the Erie Canal offers a variety of species. Consider targeting panfish like bluegill or crappie around docks and weed beds. Small jigs tipped with worms or live minnows are effective. The warmer months, from late spring to early fall, are ideal for panfishing. The canal's access points and walking paths make it easy to explore different fishing spots. Remember to check local regulations and obtain the necessary fishing licenses before heading out.
