Upstate Sportfishing

I practice the same technique as flyboy, but thump my rigger ball on the bottom, went 5 for 6 on sun in one hour fishing one rod, with manual riggers. 2 rods would be crazy as the cowbells were never down more than 2 min without action, i would give myself a heart attack cranking up and down from 115 ft.

The side with the fins which happens to be less action works for me

I have a tiller steering boat that i want to convert to a center console, any chance you still have it and is it for sale? Mike

I dropped a steelhead off to Greg at AWTaxadermy and saw your beautiful mount last night! funny to see it again today:)

Thanks for the sandy update, I could not find the fish on wed but did 1 steelhead in85ft just like you are saying

Thanks for the ride Hog Tide

Nice report Kathleen, glad to see you are still hitting the kings off Rochester!

i did not respond to the first post but i am in...i am used to fishing ontario but would love to give this a shot

go on a local charter for the day instead of renting a boat, they will set you up with salmon for sure!

well after my derby partner stood me up for the second day in a row i decided to launch my 17 ft triumph by my self this morning. 4 ft rollers, oh and did i mention my boat is tiller steer...anyways......i put a 20 pound king in the boat in 20 min off a green flashers and green fly out 175 ft on on a wire dipsey rig setting 3 in only 75 feet of water. hope i am a little helpful. also i was only out for an hour so i suppose anyone with a little bigger boat did quite well this morning.
