Anglers looking at Jones County will find Lake Tonowanda, a reservoir; I would give one nearby piece of water a fair chance and resist moving until I see a pattern develop in the first adjustment. A first trip should leave me with something specific, so I would stay around one short piece of water until I see a pattern develop in the first hour.
Lake Tonowanda Size, Maximum Depth and Volume
Reliable acreage, maximum depth, and storage figures are hard to verify for Lake Tonowanda, so I would leave those numbers open until a current management document publishes a figure and fish one sheltered piece of water until I get a useful answer from the first setup.
Fishing This Water
A reliable fish list for Lake Tonowanda is difficult to confirm, so I would carry a small tackle bag with a few soft plastics and live bait, fish one straightforward section of bank, and leave the target open until I get a useful answer from the opening stretch. I would keep the tackle narrow on Lake Tonowanda, fish one promising section of bank, and avoid changing everything until I get a useful clue from the first area.
A Practical Lake Tonowanda Game Plan
My first plan for Lake Tonowanda would be to fish one easy-to-read shoreline stretch deliberately and change one variable at a time only after I get a useful clue from the first adjustment. When I see enough in the first few casts, I would stay around one manageable shoreline stretch on Lake Tonowanda and build the rest of the trip around that pattern. If I see enough in the first setup, I would count that as a successful first visit and come back to Lake Tonowanda with one short section of water already on the short list.
