Turkey hunting and fishing opportunities await. Here’s a look at the New York fishing and hunting report across the state on May 7, 2026.
Good numbers of steelhead were caught over the last week following a push of fresh fish here.
Water temperatures are even cooler than last week. Here’s a look at the Minnesota fishing report on May 6, 2026.
The spring bite is picking up on this fishery. For perch and crappie, try jigging with minnows or small plastics in around 20 feet of water.

Salmon and trout action has been great on Lake Ontario this week.
It’s browns in tighter, lakers at mid-depths, and kings and cohos mixed in here.
Opening weekend in May here brought in many coho salmon with most anglers catching nearly full limits.
Channel catfish are starting to become active with the high water and warming water temps here.
