    SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS

    ====================

    Started out later after 6 a.m. after the T storm passed Rochester. Checking the NOAA radar before heading out is a must!

    We were greeted by eastern winds as expected. Headed out NE and trolled W with the waves behind our boat.

    Two riggers 40 and 80 over 100-140 FOW. Two wire divers 140-200.

    Same lure 42nd seconds took three fish as our newbie boated his first fish on Lake Ontario. Nothing stellar. Very small king. All baby kings returned to lake successfully.

    Hopefully, tomorrow will bring bigger fish to everyone fishing out there.

  2. Hey Mark,

    You have tried my dipsey set up on my boat when you reeled in the dispey. It was the Okuma Convector reel with stainless steel wire.

    When you come back to Rochester in the fall, I am more than glad to show you different reels: Okuma and Daiwa LCA for the wire set up and Tekota 400' and 500' for copper set up.

    BTW, I will have a blast watching you pull a 25# king on the 500' copper!

  3. Chris,

    You did great by targeting the LT in your program. Fishing has been unrealistically slow this year. It felt like as if the quiet summer transition period has started earlier than expected. Last year in May, I had a blast catching kings and bows right in front of Genny in about 90 FOW. Nothing like that this year. No big bait pods to follow.

    With golf last Friday, I was never near my boat over the long weekend. Hopefully with the NW winds and rising warm water at the western basin, the sharks would move into our neighborhood.

    Tight lines

  4. Nice brown. :yes: Thanks for sharing picture.

    We had one hit yesterday from 5:30 am to 9:30 am. We only saw the fish came up to the surface with its big white belly before it killed the line. It could be a king. :o

    We only did trolling for browns in 8 to 12 FOW before we moved to 35 FOW. Thats the only action that happened.

  5. Bill, I went out last night also from 6 pm to 8:30 pm.

    Started in 90 FOW. All empty in the screen. Surface temp at 46.

    Motored back to 40 FOW between Genny and IBay. I find the green stained water and the surface temp was at 48 and warmed up to 50 degrees by the time I approached 35-40 FOW. Marks started showing up on the screen. More activity showed up in 35 FOW and surface temp at 49 degrees.

    No bite at all. It was a nice evening to be out.

    Cant beat this.

  6. Cornelis,

    Please dont be hard on yourself. Its been a tough weekend for us as well.

    Yes, there was a good color break where the cold blue water met the mud line. We covered between 6 to 40 FOW and we only boated one nice brown #7 on Sunday from 7:30 a.m. to noon. We had a six rods spread including two riggers and four off planer boards. Brown took a small purple spoon off the rigger.

    Last Saturday, my buddy and I worked very hard in rough conditions 2-4 footers but no dice. We only trolled for browns in the shallow water.

    Hopefully, the lake would settle down and we would have a better chance finding them.

  7. Nice work on the lakers! At least, you were able to find fish!

    It is too bad about the thick fog. You seem to catch on to the right surface temp when you headed out north. You were wise not to venture out further with zero visibility.

    I will be taking my buddies from VT and Long Island for fishing this weekend. Hope to show them how strong the kings are compared to the fish found in Atlantic ocean.

    Tight lines.
