This is primarily a Bass fishing channel on the St Lawrence river and Northeastern section of Lake Ontario. I'll take you to different hot spots around the area for bass like Chaumont Bay, Cape Vincent, Clayton, Chippewa Bay, Henderson Bay, Sackets Harbor and the St. Lawrence River.
St Lawrence River #1 Summer time bait
The St Lawrence River and lake Ontario both are very seasonal fisheries. Certain baits will work all year long but there are specific baits that stand strong year after year in this area and it's very seasonal! This video will explain what works when and more specifically the summer bite.

How to fish GALLOO ISLAND on Lake Ontario!
Переглядів 882Місяць тому
In the North Eastern section of Lake Ontario and the St Lawrence River is the best smallmouth bass fishing in the world! One of the prime areas to fish on Lake Ontario is Galloo Island. Something to keep in mind is Galloo Island isn't the easiest place to get to. A solid 10-20mph wind makes it nearly impossible. The island itself is big enough that you can waste most the day fishing areas that ...
St Lawrence River Swimbait Fishing (made easy)
Переглядів 858Місяць тому
Not only do we have the media shoving their agenda down our throats day in and day out you can't deny we're being told on a regular basis if we don't own every bait ever made we can't catch fish. On the St Lawrence River swimbait fishing I've found you can keep it simple with realistic colors, smaller sizes and about 3 different weights and catch fish consistently! #stlawrenceriver #swimbaitfis...

How to fish the Canadian side of the St Lawrence River
Переглядів 6282 місяці тому
Early in the spring Canada has a catch and release season in zone 20. During that period you can catch some St. Lawrence giants. But the shorelines and bays along the Canadian side of the St. Lawrence are great to fish all year long. You can fish the Canadian side from Chippewa Bay to Cape Vincent. You don't have to run 20 miles in! #stlawrenceriver #canadafishing #bassfishingvideos
St Lawrence River/Lake Ontario Spring fishing baits.
Переглядів 1,7 тис.2 місяці тому
Each season on the St. Lawrence River has a particular bait that's the strongest for that time of year. We have 4 distinct seasons here and they're extreme. Spring and early summer is the time of year that the Jerkbait and Swimbait are the most dominant. Finding the warmest water on the perfect flat is the challenge. #stlawrenceriver #lakeontario #Smallmouthbass
2023 Salmon run on Lake Ontario Tributary/2023 Deer season
Переглядів 1283 місяці тому
I live about 45min from the famous Salmon River in Pulaski, NY. It gets a little busy down there as you can imagine so I like to find smaller streams close to the Salmon River that still hold nice fish. Mill creek in Sackets Harbor can be one of them. Mill creek doesn't hold a ton of fish all year but it has its' moments! #salmonriver #salmonfishing #flyfishing
How to catch UNMARKED fish on the St Lawrence River! Forward Facing Sonar (I don't have it)
Переглядів 3859 місяців тому
You can still catch fish on the St Lawrence River without Forward Facing Sonar. Because the St lawrence is so big sometimes we don't know where to start. I suggest you start on shoals and if you pick the right shoal you can catch a 25lb bag on 1 shoal. Whether you mark fish or not believe they're there, these shoals are massive and hold fish! #stlawrenceriver #smallmouthbassfishing #ditchfishing
St lawrence River/Lake Ontario 2023 Fall Transition Bass fishing
Переглядів 97310 місяців тому
The Northeastern basin of Lake Ontario and the St Lawrence River is a very unique place to fish! In the dog days of August the fishing here can get real tough because of endless tournaments and the fish going real deep in the VAST Lake Ontario. So the fall transition is a very welcoming time of year where the bass come up shallow again. Like I said this area is unique so this fall transition pe...

Переглядів 1,1 тис.11 місяців тому
The primary baits used on the Northeastern basin of Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River are a Dropshot, Ned rig and a Wacky rig Senko. The Shaky Head is a similar but different looking bait in the water. Because it's not a primary bait here the smallmouth go crazy for it. This video will give you all the ins and outs on how to use it. #ditchfishing #smallmouthbassfishing #bassfishing

@@guitarhiker4449 thank you!🙏
How is Carleton Island?
@@AlfredMorganOutdoors it’s not bad. That big flat on the lake end is more shallow than it looks. I’d fish the edges and get right up on the island. Assuming you’re Kia k fishing
@@ditchfishing9148 Yes sir, going out Satuday and prefishing Friday, Weather looking like minimal wind so hoping the big flats produce, Tossing up between here and eel bay area
@@AlfredMorganOutdoors nice, good luck
@@ditchfishing9148 Thanks man! Been watching your videos for awhile. They're awesome
Thank you good luck slim
do you ever try top water baits in the summer. the bottom looks so awesome on the drone shots. great video
I used to fish top water all the time years ago but I’ve gotten away from it. I don’t know why!!
Nice video, I'm coming up next friday any strategy other than worms and what depth should I be fishing
15ish swimbaits and drop shots
@ditchfishing9148 thank you
Caught a good amount of smallmouth around stonet point, thanks again my nephew got his 1st smallmouth and that was the objective
@@rodneybyrne2594 sweet!
Awesome buddy!
Thx
The last 3 minutes of the video is the best part of
@@boydreynolds2635 amen
I'll be out that way next week great video
Good luck
Amen. great video as always.
great video as always. I'm coming up to thousand islands from sunday june 30th through july 4th. I've been wanting to fish up their for several years and just havent had the chance. Im staying in Clayton and will try Galloo island before I leave weather pending. Thanks brother
Nice!
GOOD VIDEOS MAN YOU GIVE ALOT OF REAL INFORMATION IN ALL YOUR VIDEOS THANKS 🙏🐟
Thank you!
I just got back from the St Lawrence two days ago. Watched this video and made the 40 minute steam from ABAY. Unreal rocks and crystal clear water but didn’t mark or catch a thing.
I’ve noticed a strong smell of sewage in the area and I’m wondering if there’s a leak or something cause the fishing has kinda died over there!
Do you ever fish the Bathtub in Stoney Pond? Great video
No I don’t sorry
Another great, honest tutorial on fishing the St Lawrence! Shared to 613BASS'N brother. 👍😎
I appreciate that!
Great video, im staying around north sandy pond on July 5. What is your advice for me and my friends? I know we are not far from henderson bay so i was thinking trailering up there
If you get a reasonable north wind use the sandy creek launch and fish the 2 bays otherwise use Henderson. I have a video on how to fish Henderson, that tells the story pretty good
Thanks alot
Headed your way for the bass opener. Staying in Abay but will be cruising all around. Curious how the warmer water temps have affected the spawning cycle. Are there still fish in beds?
Should be done by then. I believe it started a bit early this year
If you wanna save time hire a guide. . Lots of water running for no reason. Ive fished it fpr 20+ yrs.
Stop showing fishing videos it's ruined the fishing tomany people keeping fish out of season cause of videos lot of guys talking about it
Son and 'maybe' Grandson and I are going up to Duckcove again on the June 15th week. Really enjoyed your video....especially the end, God bless!
Thank you
Love your videos! Thank you for doing them. We get up that way 1-2 times a year. (And still know nothing). Be up in a few weeks. Be looking for your z19…
Awesome
What time of year is this
Glad to see you out there again Scott! Keep up the vids,I need to learn more!
Thx bro
After vid chat got me man. Thinking and....feeling. I'll keep you posted.
Excellent info!! 😎🙏 - 613BASS'N
Thx bro
Incredible videos brother. Really enjoying the content that you're providing.
Thank you
Great video. Thanks for sharing are you using braid to floro leader on your swimbaits
Braid on jerk mono and flora on swims either work. If I was to choose one I’d pick mono
Thank you
Very nice!, some big old chunks!
Love the informational videos! My family and I are getting a cottage in the thousand island and your videos have really helped me understand the water in the area and the different techniques to use!
Yep, 1800 islands and just as many shoals and they are unforgiving granite !
Hell yeh, sweet video....one of the best fishing spots, all-around adventure out there.
Thats was an excellent video! Cool drone footage. Also loved the way you put the maps into the video. I just started UA-cam and i know those things dont come easy. Subscribed. What month were you fishing here? Also please check out JimJam Fishing channel and JimJam Cooking channel! Thanks for the inspiring content at the end also.
Thank you! That I believe was June
Anyway you could change the Title of this video? Such a small trib that’s gotten way too over populated. Met multiple people there that have referenced this video
Dude sweet you’re only going if God lets you out there, I think that’s where he fishes lol, I think more people been to Mars, can’t imagine the feeling out there, good luck, buddy, the school of 100 5 pounders is out there somewhere
Amen! It’s a long ways
Great info I fished the 80s and 90s all summer long. You always ran out of bait, you needed four dozen minnows for a half day👍
Thank you lots of great info of what it’s like up there
what average date would you say that senko bite is turning on.
June 15 or whenever the spawn is done
@@ditchfishing9148 Ok thanks I look forward to try that area sometime. it looks fun!
Thank you for making this video! I think I’m your target audience! It’s exactly the info I needed. I fish for smallmouth a lot on the Susquahanna river in PA and have had my eye on st Lawrence river for a while. 7 hr drive for me. An older gentleman told me about Riverbay Adventure Inn and it looks perfect. Going to reserve a room soon. Is there a particularly good month for me to come? Is there a difference in the amount of wind at different times of year? I’m thinking sometime between April and august.
Late June or early July would be best and just give yourself a few days to play with cause yes the wind can be your enemy. The weather isn’t consistent on the st Lawrence
@@ditchfishing9148 Great info, thank you!
Fantastic video
Thanks! 😃
Nice informative video especially for newbies to the area. Parents originally from the area so we vacationed with grandparents and fished this area every summer growing up. I'm retired now so wife and I spend the summers with our kids and grands fishing the upper 50 miles of the St Lawrence and the Eastern side of Lake Ontario. So many game species besides the Smallies to fish for we never get tired of it. Last summer we spent almost 5 months and fished every day but three when we went to Lake Placid. Love this area. Thanks
Any tips for canadian side?
Got a new video on Canadian side. Check it out
What was water temp? I like the 55-65 range. Closer to 65 if I can
Love that place. Caught my two biggest smallies up there within about 2 hours of each other near Clayton. Tight lines!
Awesome! Love it
That crystal clear water can be intimidating. Sometimes I think “there cant be fish here”.
Understood
I have a 20 foot mod V with a 150 and I have found myself nervous out there a couple times. The wind just never stops in our area.
Amen to that
Nice i need to get out there in my Yak or Lowe next year! I used to be able to catch like at least a few 3.5lber from shore until 2007 ish between stony point and Rays Bay or 6lbs in sandy creeks on flys in spring ha ,hopefully it,s making a come back!
It’s awesome over there when you can get on the water. The wind is brutal
Another great video! What a beautiful body of water!! I too run "only" a Fortrex and got side-scan just two years ago. Been figuring it out and catching Smallies for years. Headed up there this upcoming weekend and weather looks cooler, with some possible rain and windy. Looks like anywhere from 17 - 10 mph! Looks like we wont be hitting the big lake. Any particular shoals, islands or spots in the river we may want to target in those conditions if we launch out of Clayton? Thanks in advance!
Maybe Hickory island I haven’t been there in a while but you can get out of the wind there a bit. Good shoals in a bay by the castle if wind isn’t too bad
Love your content! I have FFS and I find that in areas where the current is especially strong, FFS doesn’t help that much because the fish are so tight to the bottom that there’s not much target separation.
Good to know because it’s probably in my future. Like I said I’m not a hater! If that will give me confidence in an area because I can actually see fish then I’m all for it
@@ditchfishing9148 I totally agree with you. It is pretty fun in the river to see nothing on FFS, then run a jerkbait or swimbait over that area, and see them come up from the bottom. You think the area is dead until the fish start coming off bottom to check out your bait!
