Fishing the whirlpool

[MichaelAngelo]

Any tips for fishing the whirlpool at this time of year?

How are worms and roe bags usually fished in this water? Slip bobber, bottom bounced?

I've never been before... not sure what to expect.

How about trolling from the cable car?

You have to buy a New York fishing licence half way across.....smile.

LOL nice, you found us

I didn't have a bite all day. MikeH caught a goby, I got skunked!

Dave's got some good fishing karma he's been redeeming for nice carp, right Dave?

Well, you can drift bait using a slip bobber to get your bait down close to the bottom. You can also try working a spoon or spinner close to the bottom, close to all the snags!!
