It means, you will find us where the action is at its best, staying on top of the larger schools of sport fish throughout the entire year.

Largemouth Bass
If you're heading to Vernon, NY, for largemouth bass, you're in for some classic upstate New York freshwater fishing. The area's dotted with smaller lakes and ponds, along with sections of the Erie Canal, all holding bass. Focus your efforts on Oneida Lake, a short drive from Vernon. Oneida is known for its healthy bass population and diverse structure. Spring (late May/early June) is prime time, as the bass are in pre-spawn and actively feeding in the shallows. Fall (September/October) is another excellent window, as they bulk up before winter. A local tip: pay attention to weed lines and submerged vegetation. Largemouth in this area love to ambush prey from these spots. Also, be aware that Oneida Lake can get choppy quickly, so check the marine forecast before heading out. Consider using a lipless crankbait or a Texas-rigged worm for best results.
