Walleye
Walleye anglers looking for a local bite near Elmira, NY should focus on the Chemung River. While not as renowned as some of the larger walleye fisheries in the state, the Chemung does hold a decent population of these tasty fish, particularly in the deeper pools and around structure. Targeting walleye in the Chemung is best done during the spring and fall months, especially during the low-light periods of dawn and dusk. Jigging with minnows or artificial lures near the bottom is a proven technique. Consider fishing around bridge pilings, submerged logs, and rocky areas. Be aware that the Chemung River can be subject to fluctuating water levels, so check the river conditions before heading out. A local tip: Many anglers have success trolling crankbaits slowly upstream in the deeper channels. Walleye in this system are known to be somewhat nomadic, so covering water is often key to finding them.
