fishing Long Island Locks

[fishing mrs.]

I am new on Fish-Hawk. My husband has been on a few years. He did not feel well today and since I had off from work I decided to check out the perch fishing at the locks. Our dog "Joey" loves to go along to watch and kiss the fish

I started at the top ,but the fish biting there were not getting hooked; probably too small.

So we went below the locks and found 2 fishermen catching perch and also "fall fish" as one fisherman had been told these little silver fish are called. Would there be another name- they look like mooneye?

I did not get any pictures of them- only a few of the perch and our dog. It is hard to catch fish and take pictures at the same time. "Joey does not know how to use the camera- yet

It was a fun day- I wish Denis could have come along

There is such a thing as fallfish. They look like a chub kind of with bigger scales.
