    Wow, perfect set up.

    Clearly firm structure with no fuzzy weed growth between. Looks like a good hang out.

    Legal action is the only way. Chase the money. I am sure there is a lobby that the shipping industry uses.

    The Opti-grab glasses were a big hit back in the day. https://m.facebook.com/pages/category/Company/Opti-Grab-188543405397/

    Boats of guys fishing were seen circling.

    Well done. I had grand plans of fishing out deep today but wind and waves had other ideas.

    El skunko. Smelled three different road killed skunks on way down to the lake, the water had a post roll-over smell, the wave forecast was wrong, one crew member failed to wake up ....,should have slept in. Trolled out this morning from 140’ out to 260’ and back. Marking only a handful of marks and baitpods. Lost one on a meat rig down 80’- on briefly, and then lost a screamer that chewed thru a 20 lb Fluor leader (clean cut) taking with it a R&R Kodiak Wobbler mag. Smelled a rat so pulled plug after a three hour troll. Hits were out over 240’. Hopefully the smelly water settles out by next weekend.

    On cue, a bunch of olcott fish weighed in today on LOC. I will be out tomorrow. Have not seen Ontario since May.

    Good water heading back to Niagara county shoreline. Kings should be around tomorrow. How is Pirate Days effecting the launch?

    Nice report. I would say the Browns look healthy this year!

    My brother is in the market. I will pass your info on to him.

    I saw a lot of fish with lateral fin clips

    Braid sheath leadcore like Tuf-line I just remove some lead and tie an improved cinch on mono side married to a wrapped twice improved cinch on the sheath side.

    Back to Ontario for a reality check
  15. Gill-T
    I use long leads so it is not a factor.

    My iPhone stopped recognizing my thumb print because it got too mangled.

    Question for you finger lakes regulars. Do lake trout break off their teeth or gill raker parts into your fingers when handling? My hands are a painful mess from last week.

    Just ball busting fishnut.

    Last week my divers (standards and mags) were out anywhere from 90’ to 250’ depending on where fish were showing on graph or down temps for that day (Cayuga Lake). Most of the bigger fish came in that 80’ down range.

    June is always one of the tougher months. More gizmos and different techniques get deployed in June by trollers than any other time of the year. Reasons..... - The water is changing. With surface water temps warming and spreading out offshore, fish have more options to find preferred temp range. - We still get East winds. - Alewives are spawning in the shallows - There are still alewives and kings in winter pattern on the bottom - spring-spawning steelhead are in a recovery lethargic mood often feeding on surface bugs rather than chase alewives. Things to to do and try ... - Cover as much of the water column as you can. Put as many downriggers out you can deploy with cheaters - In June, use da spoon - Fish slow on downtemp. - Chase the fish- with alewives spawning in close, kings will move in and out in feeding forays during low light ie. if you start in 150’ and don’t see anything on graph, you might see a different picture later in the day ( I don’t get up early in June). - Offshore, fish can still be caught in the top 20’ others can add more. You Oak boys can talk about your goofy five-of-diamonds spoon lol.

    double post

    Gary, how long have you been chasing salmon if you don’t mind me asking? The reason I ask is I need perspective on your years-in so I can answer appropriately. If you just started trolling last year, you started your trolling career on a year that will go down as the greatest in recent memory so your perspective of the norm may be “off”.

    I am going to call them directly. Thanks
