Flasher and Fly on finger lakes
Pete Collin replied to Long time fisherman's topic in Finger Lakes Discussion
Yes, I made the fly and video. I was too busy to dig out my trolling fly box and photograph them, so I posted this! -

Just to add to this thread, here is how I tie one of my favorite trolling flies, should anyone care to try their hand at making trolling flies. -

Long Time Fisherman, Let me know if you can't find any source of trolling flies. I don't tie them to sell, because I was never fast enough to make any money at it. But I offer them to guys who invite me on their boat. -

https://fiddleheadfocus.com/2017/04/25/sports/sh-mainelyoutdoorscol-17-17/ Long Time Fisherman, here is a link that shows the kind of flies I use. I tie my own. You'd have to mail order them from places in Maine or New Hampshire. -

Yes I use small spin doctors with New England style tandem hooked trolling flies. Have caught all salmonids that way. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Lake Ontario United mobile app -

I live in the middle of my village and it's hard to grow anything on my lawn! Deer are voracious, and they know where they're safe during hunting season! -

With each video, I'm whittling away at New York's tree species. Our forests are pretty diverse! -

Hello All, Forgive me for the off topic video. But I had a very unusual summer, and, among other things, I got some good aerial shots of the Finger Lakes!

Here's a video somebody did back in 2009 on Keuka.

Hello All, Hasn't been a very fishing- filled year for me. But a good Saturday forecast moved me to invite an old chum along for some Laker Jigging. Steve hadn't caught Lakers that way, and was game to try. Usually I like to scout the fish before inviting people, but I probably won't get that many trips so we chanced it. Luckily, the fish were a short distance from the launch. We set up shop an I quickly landed a nice 33 incher. It took a while for the fish to warm up, but there were plenty under us the whole time. Eventually Steve got a 32 and 33 incher for himself. He was tickled, said they were the biggest he got. Won't be too hard to get him out again!

Hello All, This will be a unique summer for me. I contracted with a helicopter company. We are flying the power lines, marking hazard trees along the right of way. Will take all summer. So I won't get to fish much, but I sure get some breathtaking views of the Finger Lakes!below is the south end of Canandaigua, Bluff Point, and Seneca.
