Night fishing Lake Ontario bay pays off with walleye for father and son team
- Chris Channels and his son Zachary from Camillus enjoyed night fishing for walleye near the dock in Henderson Bay during opening weekend.
- They fished at night aiming to take advantage of early season conditions despite Chris saying the fish were smaller than usual.
- Zachary caught a walleye that was 22 inches long and tipped the scales at 4 pounds, while Chris landed a slightly smaller fish measuring 21 inches and weighing 3.75 pounds after a 15-minute fight.
- Chris said, "Getting two on opening weekend was a success," although the rest of the night was quiet after those catches.
- Their successful catches suggest early season night fishing in Henderson Bay can yield good results even if fish sizes vary.
