I live real close to nock and have fished there many times and have never caught anything. Have tried all over the lake trying all different kinds of lures and techniques and have had no luck. The last couple times I've been there I tried under the first dam had a buddy hook up on a bass and a musky follow in his crankbait. We saw some dudes catch some hybrid stripers but that's all out of everytime I've been there lol. If anybody has any advice that would be appriciated I'm not looking for exact spots just SOMETHING to guide me in the right direction. Thanks in advance

happened to be in the area one time and stopped by the lake to check it out. The fishermen i talked to, said it was a tough lake to fish. One boat was skunked, and the other fellow did pretty well. He was regular to the lake and said you just have to put your time in. Here's a Fish Comm habitat map link. Nockamixon is listed. fishandboat.com/lakeplans.htm Maybe it will help you. |

yes that lake is tough but so are many of our PA lakes. Break it up into seasons and then areas. Where would the fish be in this season, what might they be doing and what types of areas might they be near. i have caught many big fish there at night including stripers but the largest striper I caught was early morning. Think of a lake that you do well on, what time of year and what types of structure? Then apply that to Nock. Summer is the hardest because of the expansive weed growth that used to there.(not sure if they sprayed for the weeds lately). Fish out of one launch and explore the areas near that site... but try to do so at different times of the year. The dam breast is always good as is the opposite point. That entire stretch from the dam back up lake to the far launch (Haythingy) is usually productive. I hooked up on walleyes just along the fishing pier area, and roaming bass on the main lake outside of the summer weed lines. Jig & Pig, large worms and spinnerbaits work ... on the point by the dam I used to pitch large worms into the thickest grass i could find for daytime bass. Black & brown jigs, brown or Pumpkin worms, white and chartreuse spinnerbaits and white or shad crank baits. At night go larger & darker. The striper action is another topic. We did well on large white spinnerbaits when the stripers were busting shad to the surface.
