    Fished East of the creek in 60-70 looking for a LOC brown. Started the morning with 3 high teen kings in a row. Settled into a nice fast paced morning taking browns, kings, steelhead and 2 small lakers. 60, 64 and 67 riggers, divers at 180 and 190 and 3 ten color cores pulling stinger stingrays in Black UV Tuxedo, Froggy glow and A.S.S. dill pickle were the stars for the day. Lots of 6-8 lb browns, kings from 8-18lbs and three 7-8lb steelhead. The highlight of the day was an 11.13 brown that hit a 10 color with a Black UV Tuxedo Stingray in 70. We will be back out next week looking for a LOC king and Laker to put one on the board in every division!

    Lampricide treatments. We missed 2 seasons due to covid. This year seems better than last year but numbers are still high.

    If you fish the lake in October and November, you will see that a large number of browns do not even enter the tribs to spawn. We used to troll browns all fall into winter and would catch tons of browns in the lake spitting eggs or milt.

    I wouldn't blame stream or lake guys for bad brown years. A big issue with the brown population is cormorants and lamprey. My last two trips targeting browns, there have been lamprey scars or live lamprey on 90% of the browns we have boated and only one over 10lbs (which is not even close to the norm for this time of year and with the conditions right now). IMO browns do not do well with lamprey predation compared to other species. We are also seeing a lack of browns over 10lbs right now. Why? What happened a couple years ago with stocking? Trib and Lake guys need to come together to put more pressure on the DEC and Feds to get these two damaging creatures under control!

    I have a $500.00 Elite Design Custom Reel Easy Rod Holders gift certificate we won at the Monroe Offshore Classic. Seeing that I put all new rod holders on my boat last season, I have no need for rod holders. $350.00 takes it.

    There were lamprey scars or a live lamprey on EVERY brown we boated yesterday (5 live lamprey killed). It’s the first lamprey I have seen this season but it was my first trip targeting summer browns.

    Anyone recently lose an Alien Gambler Rig off Sandy? A friend of mine found one of the spin n glos on her beach this morning.

    Good job Billy and Dickey!

    Pretty Atlantic! Congrats. The two I have caught this year were a very poor hatchery products (deformed pectoral fins and dorsal fins) Yours looks great.
  13. GAMBLER
    Thanks Paul. I can’t take all the credit. It’s a team effort and I have great guys on my team that put 100% into every trip!

    The guys and I fished Friday and Saturday for the Monroe County offshore classic and the Species challenge. Friday we started looking for browns and struggled to find any consistency. We dumped two browns and gave moved on to fill the other species. We struggled all day to catch anything over 8lbs. 140-170 was the best water we found all day. Saturday we left the creek and ran to the nose and set down in 140’. We were met with a blank screen and better temps than Friday. We went into search mode and found some active fish in 170-210 70-100’ down. We circled two weigh points all day and put a decent box together. Stinger Stingray spoons in Carbon 14, A.S.S Dill pickle and Froggy glow along with Atommik Stud and UV Grinch meat rigs got crushed all day long. We ended up in 9th place in the Classic and put a steelhead on the board in the LOC! Congratulation Jammer with the impressive box for the win and all the others that placed. A huge thank you to Mike, Tim, and Brandon for putting this event together!

    Huge alewife in the six kings and steelhead I cut up yesterday. Inside 100’ off Sandy is FULL of bait!
  16. GAMBLER
    I have seen a ton of small alewife in fish and we are getting lots of small alewife in the intake at work.
  17. GAMBLER
    Awesome! Keep up the good work Manny!
  18. GAMBLER
    I heard 160-200 was good today.

    There are days that short leader lengths work well and days that long leader lengths work. It all depends on the mood of the fish. If they are aggressive, a short leader length will not matter as much.

    I mostly run Stingray sized spoons but run mags all season. Divers or coppers are usually rigged up with Mags. Dont be afraid to run them for browns too! A lot of guys are hung up on small spoons for browns but I have taken my two biggest browns in my career on mag spoons.

    We had to drill a hole in my stringer to get it to fit.

    I am sitting at work next to a guy that owns a cottage on in island in the West end of Onieda and he said it was all shad and Carp but the carp had arrow holes in them. The big thing about shad is, they are at the Northern end of their range.
  23. GAMBLER
    Don't know but usually there is winter kill with shad. No winter kill and stress from spawning? Who knows. I wouldn't be too worried about a shad die off. If it was a lot of different species, I would worry.
  24. GAMBLER
    From the pics I saw, it looked like big gizzard shad.

    They are aluminum and powder coated.
