Fished Sodus waters 5-9:00 pm. 2 for 5. West out of channel. My daughter caught her first King!! 18 lbs off rigger down 126 ft over 122 ft. She now knows why they call them KINGS! Blisters and arm cramps. Glow & black spin doctor with blue fly, back 18 ft off ball. Had 49 degrees down 120 ft with slight current, running 2.5 - 2.7 mph speed at lure. Marked lots of bait near and on bottom, many pods with marks. I caught a 22 lb Laker off the steel dipsy set on #2, counter of 333 in 133 fow. Glow & green spin doctor with green fly. I never had a Laker do this, but it screamed out to 550 on the counter and fought and took numerous short runs all the way back to the boat. I was expecting a King at the net, but was totally surprised with it being a Laker...wow! Both fish were revived and released for another day of work.
Thank You to a big powder-blue 30 foot fishing boat exiting the channel into the bay. One of the guys yelled towards me, 130 foot, 130 foot! That's what I did and it turned out to be just the right real-time scouting report. I was planning to start out in 300 fow. Appreciate that non-solicited communication, who ever you are!
