Seasonal Activity Chart
Striped Bass
Sodus Point is a prime location for targeting Striped Bass, particularly during their seasonal migrations. The area's unique blend of freshwater from Lake Ontario and the brackish waters of the bay create an ideal habitat for these fish. Spring and fall are the peak seasons, with fish moving in and out of the lake. Focus on areas where the lake meets the bay, as well as around structure like docks, bridges, and rocky points. Live bait, such as alewives or gizzard shad, is highly effective, especially when fished near the bottom. Trolling with crankbaits or using large swimbaits can also produce results. A practical tip is to fish the early morning or late evening hours, when the fish are more active. Several boat launches provide easy access to the water, but be mindful of the often choppy conditions on Lake Ontario. The Striped Bass in Sodus Point can reach impressive sizes, so be prepared for a battle.
