Traveling Circus

The launch is fine. I'm way more concerned about stepping on a hook that a "fisherman" left on the dock with 100 ft of 80 lb braid, than I am about slipping on a slimy board. If you're worried about splitting your skull in a fall, wear a helmet.....

This morning, 7/5 at 5:30, the portapotty was found in the ramp area of the N ramp in 2 to 3' of water. Someone had dragged it from it's location 75 yards east of the ramp and dragged it into the water of the ramp. TP was floating in the creek as well as whatever else was in the shi..er. I can't imagine the blue "juice" in the portapotty is good for the environment. If these idiots can be identified, they should be held accountable, and it shouldn't be too hard to identify 2 youth on matching dirt bikes. Maybe the ramp camera can shed a little light on the perps.

Upstate Freshwater Institute - Oak Orchard This buoy can be helpful when wondering about nearshore conditions. 66 fow.

Thanks RodBuster........ I think we'll postpone.

I was considering a trip tomorrow (4/4) to Cayuga Lake (Dean's Cove) to jig for Lakers. Given the amount of rain the area got this week and the high lake level, I wondered if the launch would be OK to use and if the lake conditions (clarity and debris) would be good enough for a successful trip. It's an hour and a half drive, any info would be appreciated. Thanks.........

Ya, If I'm gonna start jigging with 1 lb. weights, I'm gonna have to spend more time in the gym first.

1st king of the season. Off Niagara county. We jigged for about 3 hours one afternoon in early May and this fish was the only taker.

The guy at the truck said 16,000. The more the merrier.

16,000 fingerling atlantics were stocked at the launch the other day. we boated one 22” atlantic out front today.

Sierra makes a .224 55gr. sbt in their Game King design that seems to provide good terminal performance at 22-250 velocities. It's also quite accurate..... at least in my weapons.

Maybe for 6 weeks....... half of September and all of October. So 15,000 are "roped" and 10,000 are "Tournament Coolered"..... and Tournament numbers are a drop in the bucket "when you look at what is stocked and what is naturally reproduced". Then the trib guys are roping a drop and a half........ We're all in this together Captain. It shouldn't be an us vs. them conversation.
