Chautauqua Lake - Chautauqua, NY Fishing Report on 28th Mar, 2025

Ice fishing in Western NY continues to produce excellent results, with anglers finding success on local lakes. Today’s trip brought in an impressive haul of crappie, bluegill, and perch, providing plenty of action and a great catch for the table. The bite has been steady, with fish responding well to small jigs tipped with live bait. Anglers should focus on deeper basins and weed edges for the best results. Ice conditions remain solid, but always check thickness before heading out. As winter fishing continues, now is a great time to get on the ice and take advantage of the strong bite!
