[Deadeyez]

That link I put up on the last page is it, I believe. It had the date and time stamp on it during the tourney which it doesn't now. It did update a couple times that I saw.

ok thanks

From mystic lake which is private ,
   I’m surprised it has been broken before now , with a Lake Ontario fish

It'll be broke again from kinzua... kinzua holds state record many times..

I'm gonna break it in Oneida this year.  Gonna catch that 13 lber that was in the hatchery last year.  After a year at the "all you can eat gobie buffet" she must be 20 lbs by now!!!

Covers it!

Yup, that about sums it up, nice. 

What's the shoreline water temp on Oneida you guys.
I checked Otisco the other night and it was 42 degrees!
Too cold for spawning alewives right now...

[elrodalonzo]

My rig said 55 yesterday. (surface of course)

[UglyStik]

@ 47.5 degrees, Saturday night at Oneida Shores.

Only 44* water temp  on the Saint Lawrence river .... Talked with another guy today who caught a 14 pound walleye all spawned out ....

[reeleyz]

That would be close to a state record too before it spawned.

Just found this on the net...preferred water temp for Walleyes to spawn...

"Water temperature plays a key role. Even here, ideal temperatures vary by latitude. Southern walleyes prefer spawning temperatures between 48°F and 50°F, while their Yankee cousins and Canadian counterparts favor temperatures between 44°F and 48°F. Jun 2, 2011"

48* +/-  is what I've always read and seen fishing Otisco for the last few years

"the Alewife spawns @51* I just read...

I guess I never tested the water temp when the alewifes or is it alwives, were swirling around in little groups doing their thing in little circles.
Why test the temp when I could see them spawning...and then, POP! there goes a walleye slashing one in half! Lol

Good fishing people, looks like a good year for BIG fish!
