The days that are a blood bath, you learn nothing (other than holy crap fishing is exercise). The days that are a grind, you learn from it. Those blood bath days are fun but they do not help improve you as a fishermen.
Those guys will not slow down. We were perch fishing at the channel markers years back in my 14' aluminum boat and a 30+' boat blew by us on plane. They were only 30-40' from us!
I find it funny that the IJC webpage no longer allows you to open the link to the outflows page.....

The link worked last week. Now anything you click on the page directs you to the same home page.....

All season that area is great. Late August, the Sandy to Braddock Bay area has produced some huge lakers. My boat took a 34.06 in 2012 and another 35lber was caught there two years ago.
Char Master, come to Sandy Creek in June. The laker fishing is insane. I can put you right on the fish when you come up. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
We got our fish at Sandy but due to water temps, we held them for six days. Fish deliveries on the West end were way too late. The oak direct stocked just like the Genny. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
You are gonna get a ton of knock offs with your spin n glo rig like that. Lakers like to grab the very back end of the bait. With your current set up, they would miss the hooks most of the time. I would suggest adding some beads to get the hook back so the hook is right to the edge of the fly. Also lengthen the lead on the spin n glo. I find 24-28" is perfect.
The only issue with the format for a big fish Friday is taking the time out of prefishing to hit the different grounds that the species inhabit. IMO, this would be a much better format for an actual tournament.
Along with stocking cuts, two pen projects are direct stocking due to water temps and late fish deliveries. This is only going make for a smaller year class due to poorer survival.

I wonder why these idiots keep cutting back the outflow on the St. Lawrence River @ the dam. It was at 8000 the other day and they are back down near 7000. With the water level way above the High in the IJC 2014 plan, shouldn't they be dumping water to get it back on track?
I change every year no matter how much use. It is a cheap insurance policy! If it's gonna fail, you know it will fail at the wrong time! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
