Walleye
If you're looking to tangle with some walleye in western New York, Kensington offers some surprisingly good opportunities. While not as well-known as some of the larger fisheries in the state, the local waterways connected to Lake Erie, like the Niagara River, hold decent populations of these tasty fish. Focus your efforts in the spring and fall, when walleye are migrating and actively feeding. Spring sees them moving into shallower water to spawn, while fall finds them fattening up before winter. A good tactic is trolling crankbaits or jigging blade baits in the deeper channels. Remember to check the water release schedules from the hydroelectric plants upstream, as fluctuating water levels can impact walleye activity. Access to the river is available at several public boat launches along the Niagara River Parkway. Also, be aware that the Niagara River can have strong currents, so exercise caution and use appropriate safety gear.
