Spanish Mackerel
While Fairport, NY, isn't on the ocean, targeting Spanish Mackerel here is an exercise in creative angling and perhaps a bit of wishful thinking! Being a freshwater location, it's highly unlikely to find Spanish Mackerel, a saltwater species. However, if you're determined to pursue fish with similar characteristics, consider targeting walleye or chain pickerel in the Erie Canal. These fish are predatory and can be caught using similar techniques to those used for Spanish Mackerel, such as trolling with spoons or casting with flashy lures. Focus on areas with current and structure. The best time for these species is spring and fall. Remember to check local fishing regulations and licenses required for freshwater fishing in New York. While you won't find Spanish Mackerel, you can still enjoy a rewarding fishing experience in Fairport.
