Hudson River Albany to Troy dam

[chiefpanfish]

[cool]Water temp. was up this week from 55 deg. to 59 deg. We charted multiple fish on the fish finder but the action was slow. Herring where still available but not in the numbers from a week ago. I've been using Sabiki bait rigs in the 10 and 12 hook size. I found them at Basspro.com under offshore fishing equipment. They are loaded with color and the herring and Shad really go for them. We fished many popular spots between Albany's Corning preserve and the Troy Dam / lock 1. We caught Herring, Shad, White Perch, Jack Perch and Sun fish. Stripers are still evading us as well as everyone else. I am posting a pic. of a nice Shad which came to my mate!!! Be Safe. Chief and chiefpanfishslady.
