All Activity

I left the dock around 9 am and went out to 60 feet where I set up. The thermocline was quite stable around 65 down, which I had not expected after yesterday's weather. The marks and the bait was all around 50 to 80 foot down and the fish were active between 70 foot to 120 foot They did not want meat or flasher flies, but they did go after the spoons. Ice frog magnum, bloody nose magnum and blue dolphin all got hit. A few 20 plus pounder kings, a 16 pound steely and a 10 pound atlantic . So I bagged one big king, the Atlantic and the steelie. The rest went back . Amazingly the big kings, although they fought very hard all swam away and down after they were released. Maybe that is because I removed the barbs from the hooks. In the end between 9.30 am and 1pm I boarded 5 kings (4 went back in the water) 1 nice atlantic and this huge steelhead. 3 hits with nobody home and 3 got away , 2 of which were because of doubles and the barbless hooks. The extra fun for me, was that I did most of it on a fifteen pound line on my new coldwater okuma, which I had never used before. (It was supposed to be for browns) All in al , a great time.

Where is this boat located When can I take a look at it Thanks Henry 585 704-8656

Wrapping up the 2026 Oak Orchard salmon season finished the four days with 36 fish . Early in the morning, fish were parked 70-75 feet down. The rigs did very well with spoons and flasher flies. Flasher flies below with spoons stacked 10 foot above them. The spoon of the week definitely the green eyed ghost painted green eyed ghost on both sides from Route 18 Tackle. Both the mag size and the super mag size did well with that green eye ghost we had one that’s gonna be retired with a lot of teeth marks a lot of paint missing off of it so be it the other ones, the gold frog that did really really well ended up getting a couple more of those from Route 18 Tackle The flasher fly combo by all means was the gezzer 8 inch paddle in chrome and gold. Both of them performed very well and did well with those were 24 inches back with a atomic 42nd St. gold fly. Also people were using the hammer stud fly, but there was none available so we went with the atomic 40 second gold fly that did really well. Meat Riggs took a couple hits, on the 300 and 400 copper. Many times we could not keep four riggers and two dipseys in the water. In the afternoon riggers parked 70-75 and then we put them down to 110 to catch fish. The same thing with the Dipsy Dipsy’s were starting out 150 to 180 and then they ended up we had to go really deep 275 to 325 to catch fish As far as location first three days did very well coming out of Port on a 330 heading water was in cold. Water was in close so we sat down 200 but mostly 250 to 320 was the hot ticket for water depth this year we did ease on out the 400 because we got pretty busy, but that didn’t didn’t bother things but again those those good fish came in at 250 to 320 foot range Day four the winds were coming out of the north east so we had to adjust a little bit without a port on a 30 heading and that heading we went out to about 200 foot cold water was in tight so we sat down at 200 and had an amazing day probably the best day ever we had a four man box by 8:30 and again it was on a north troll there also
