Have to keep your eye on the southentier and northern Pennsylvania. The Genesee and many of it's feeder streams start way down there. It really isn't the local rains that raise the river level around Rochester. If it rains heavy down there, then it can get blown out and muddy, but it sometimes takes a day or two to happen after the rain.
i dont know why it is, but i seam to fish in the roughest and some of the most dangerous fishing areas of wny. i think i should try fishing the genny someday, if its as bad of an area to fish as people have said on here
Your telling me a guy jumped off the bridge dam I love that spot but its not safe
Gump you don't know the neighborhood do yah.. it is bad as bad as people say... fished there my whole life and live here... just leaving your car at the top,, 75/25 chance it will be stolen or broken into... not like it was 20years ago... or even 10. you are better off, having someone drop you off.. I remember mayor Johnson said he would not walk that neighborhood at night... and that is not even the worse part of the city... I live in the city.. not too far away.. I would never go down there alone,, if you know what I mean... I have everything imaginable for protection, the summer is the worst I have actually stopped 2 people from jumping before the fence was put up... felt good about that..Moyle geezz that had to scare the crap out of you...
