A wing town, even a hot dog town, but WNY is also be considered a fishing town. We wear many hats, we know.
Upstate NY recently had its waterways honored with the ranking of the decade (literally) – four waterways in Upstate NY were ranked among “25 bass fishing spots of the decade”. This story was highlighted on the New York Upstate website, which detailed exactly why Upstate NY hit this list, and it seems our waters are ideal for fishing spots for bass both large and small.

Lake Erie (New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Michigan) “Although the lion’s share of the tournament data comes out of the Buffalo, N.Y. area, this Great Lake, world-class smallmouth fishery can be found anywhere along its shoreline westward to Trenton, Michigan.”

Another accomplishment to add to WNY’s rankings and yet another summer activity to add to our list.
