Seneca South 7/18-7/20


Recommended Posts

7/18 - quick solo pm trip on south end (west side) and picked up one brown about 15" on a small silver/blue slider down about 25ft off the rigger

 

7/19 - late start,  fished solo 10:30-1:30 pm and picked up one nice brown about 4 lbs, again on a slider (small pink/green scorpion) about 25ft, slow fishing but marked good numbers of bait pods and suspended fish pretty shallow further up the west side in 60-150ft, fished briefly on the east side  coming home with a growing north wind and not marking much

 

7/20 - got an earlier start with a friend and we went back up the west side to where I had found a good screen the day before and set out a spread, fished from 7-11 am and we found a little more action, started out with a nice 4lb bow on the slider (pink/green) down 25ft, after a few smaller fish got another longer but skinnier bow about 4lbs on the wire dipsey rod with a green/black ladderback superslim DW back 150ish, finished with a slightly larger acrobatic bow that took the slider once again and made a few nice jumps before coming to the net and then back to fight another day with our 2 bow limit in the cooler, in total we went 9/9 with all but a laker for the slam (though the browns and salmon were all sub-legal)

 

Not the most fast and furious fishing I've seen on Seneca but certainly worthwhile with some nice eating fish to boot.  Fleas were present but mostly a non-issue.  Weeds were moderate first 2 trips but non-existent today on the west (thick on the east side coming back though). Water is nice and clear and surface temps toasty for Seneca from 72-75.  Brown had a large lamprey attached which is always sad to see but the bows were all clean
