Black Lake, NY Forum

Has anyone been up the past week or two? Looking for water levels and what fishing is like. Crew will be up Saturday and haven't seen much.

We will be up there on Saturday the 5th till Saturday the 12th. If ya see a Nitro Z-7 in Red/Dark Purple and White that is us. Looking to break in a brand new Baitcaster on this trip

I was up last weekend and heading back tonight. The water is VERY low. I am sure that water has even dropped a bit since last weekend with the weather they have had. Fishing seemed a bit slow last weekend, I only caught a few smallies but also didn't put in a lot of time.

will be up on the 9th...will post a report

Got here on the 7th, the lake is LOW, weather has been bright, hot and humid. Water temp very high 70s. We're catching, but not the numbers we're used to, due I'm sure to the aforementioned conditions. However enough smallies and LMB to keep us happy. Hear guys are catching crappie, but we haven't found them.........yet.
Good luck!

Fishing was great this past weekend. I really only fished in the evenings/night. Caught mostly smallmouth. I did manage on one night to catch 4 walleye all between 18-23". All fish caught were released.
