Walleye
If you're looking for walleye in western New York, Oakfield is a great starting point. While not directly on the Great Lakes, Oakfield provides access to the Erie Canal and several smaller waterways that hold decent populations of walleye. The best time to target walleye here is during the spring and fall months, particularly around dawn and dusk. Spring sees them moving into shallower waters to spawn, and fall sees them feeding heavily to prepare for winter. Focus your efforts around the canal's deeper holes and near any feeder creeks. Try trolling crankbaits or jigging with worm harnesses. Local tip: The section of the Erie Canal near Medina, a short drive from Oakfield, is known for its walleye fishing. Be sure to check water levels and flow rates before heading out, as these can impact walleye location and activity. The walleye in this area tend to be good-sized, with the occasional real trophy.
