Hemlock lake is said to have trophy sized(4lbs+) chain pickerel. Does anyone know what part of the lake to go to get them. Also does anyone if Canadice lake or honeoye has trophy pickerel and what part to target for them

You may not get any response with your first post just asking where to go. Many here have spent a lot of time and effort finding good spots to fish. Especially with fresh water. They are not likely to give them up. Put in the effort and then ask yourself do I really want to give up this great spot and post it on the internet? If you do tomorrow there will be a dozen people on that 20 foot spot you took so long to find.

Go search for yourself the reward will be worth it.

Do you really want to take that chance. You seem to want to target them so why wouldn't someone else.

Lot of bass fisherman whine about them and the majority of the people who fish hemlock and canadice are there for trout or bass

Once again and we can go around and around. You said "the majority" that means there is a minority amount of people. Do you want them there on possibly 20 ft of shoreline? Many fisherman that do catch and release, me included for fresh water just want to feel the bend of the rod. Since you really don't get it go look for yourself and then post it here. Then go back and see just how many people are now fishing that spot.

a couple of years ago I posted a great spot I found for stripers on the Nissequoge River in Kings Park - the following week it looked like a Woodstock reunion - so crowded I had to move on

I would if I knew one. Don't really freshwater fish anymore.

Can someone help the lad out & PM him?
After all - isn't that what this site is about? Helpin' fellow fisherpersons (see - I can be PC when I want to).

Good luck fishing. Hope someone gives up their spot for you. I'm sure if you keep asking, someone will give up their spot that they took their time and effort looking for. After all why should you have to do the work, you should be entitled to that spot. SMH
