Fish for lakers on bottom in water 110 feet deep. Use sawbellies if you can find them. In the Branchport arm, Lakers are being caught on stickbaits 60-70 feet below the surface. The spinier flea situation is getting better. In the Penn Yan branch, smallmouth bass are hitting crayfish, but they're getting hard to find.
Nightcrawlers are good too.
Panfish action is good in the weeds. Crappie are hitting small minnows here and there in the weeds. Muskie action will turn on with the cooler weather. Use big plugs or stickbaits outside the weed line. In the early morning hours, use a Muskie Jitterbug in the weed pockets.
