I wanna go fishing out of my canoe, i do not wanna travel 100 miles to find a nice place… preferibly a 20-30 minute drive would be ideal… From the UB south campus area in Buffalo, NY. Anybody know of any good places to go? thanks -will ---

Drop in on the waterfront down here by Shanghai Reds… I see tons of people fish everyday and jet ski’s, boats, etc. Of course the police boat usually picks them all up in 15 minutes, but its very great to watch. ---
