  1. Haha! Nice one! In the summer when I get bored in the evening, I slip down to the finger lakes trib behind my house and can usually catch some monsters. Love to use my steelhead setup with bread balls. Man can they fight.

  2. mm mono on a flyreel....lifting??

    What does mm stand for? And why does everyone always assume that because a guy uses mono on a fly reel hes lifting? Granted a lot of scumbags use this technique.. but not me.. . All the fish above were fairly caught, pic snapped then released for the next guy.. Maybe some guy with a $400 fly rod.. Maybe some kid with a $20 walmart special spinning rod and worms..... Don't judge... Thats all I'm saying...

  3. Hey all my father and i started at our favorite fingerlake trib ..... i went 3 for 4 all small and spawned out 22" was the biggest dad caught 1 and lost 1 all between 645 and 8 but the stream was swamped with guys so rather than fight the crowd and all the braniacs tromping through the stream we shot up north to our fav steely haunt were i landed 2 and lost 2 dad was unlucky landing 1 and losing 4 dads budy also went up with us he landed 1 and lost 3............ fished up there from 1015 till 345 then packed it in wet and tired (it rained up north) all were released howd everyone else do?

  4. I agree with you guys.... ive been fishing the finger lake tribs for some time and every year there are less and less fish and the same or more people all taking more than they need.... back in the day 3 was fine but to preserve it either needs to be 1 or just catch and release... i know this doesnt set well with a lot of people but if we continue the way we are going the trout fishing around here will suck and we will all be reduced to sitting around drinking beer remembering the "good old days".. it also doesnt help that the DEC seems to have no clue how to manage a stream properly nor does it appear that they care.... :(

  5. hey fellas heres another update for ya...started at daylight down on the finger lakes and landed 3 nice bows and lost 1 by 1:30... the largest was 23 and the smallest 20.... fished with my father today as well and he wound up with 5 landed and 3 lost... same size range... at 1:30 i was bored so i drove all the way up to little sandy...landed a gorgeous 34" steely in the first 10 minutes.. but i had to jump in waste deep to land it... i had hip boots on :shock: ...yeah that was cold... fished for 2.5 more hrs and hooked one more big steely but couldnt land him...by then though i couldnt feel my feet or legs and was starting to shiver so i headed back to the car....and thats the report
