Thanks for all the suggestions. Benson and Wellsville were also the two spots I thought would be most likely to get us into fish. We ended up at First Dam because they were going to be over that way and we actually had a great time. Everyone caught fish. But I’ll have to go try to get into some wipers at Wellsville next week. The couple we took fishing are hooked and were talking about going every weekend.
Almost lost a pole in high school when I was fishing from the bridge and got into a Carp. Grabbed the pole as it was launching over the bridge!
Didn’t know they have wipers there. Thanks!

Cuz as soon as you let go of the pole, and set it down somewhere without a good pole holder, a big Carp or Catfish will come along and swipe the bait, line, pole, everything.
Just ask Ahi 1953.

They should have a good chance of getting into some fish if they are just learning.
Good Luck!
