the water temp was 60-61 in the river around the islands in the river on saturday, the water temp was 64-66 at the mouth of the st.lawerance and lake ontario then on sunday then on monday the water temp was 63-64 in the shallow bays around clayton. i was able to catch a lot of fish (all smallies) but they were all 2-2.5 lbs. seen a few giant smallies follow jerkbaits but they were not interested in biting except one which was over 4lbs. i thought the fishing was alittle tough, the fish were really shallow some on beds and some satrting to move a little deeper.
