    Cayuga this morning

    in Finger Lakes Discussion

    Posted

    A tad on the rough side this morning. Went outta Dean's cove and headed toward Sheldrake, setup coming back north as the wind was pretty stiff. Picked up a small brown on the lead core then nothin. Bounced over to the east side and marked plenty between Longpoint and Aurora, picked up 3 rainbows, 2 went back and kept 1 for dinner. Time to hit the golf course:-)

    Quality net without breaking the bank?

    x3 on the Ranger. last time out on Lake O I brought mine along as my fishing buddy normally has a net on his boat that would be better suited for scooping bait from a tank and we were glad we did as we needed the extension on the handle and size of opening to reach a 25 lb thrashing king. :lol: They are a good  durable net.

    Thanks Les,

    Do you know the Ranger model # or can you point me to a link to order one?

    Nick - I can't help but agree, the number of huge bait schools in many parts of the lake the last two years is certainly making it a real challenge to entice them to opt for a lure. I picked up a nice rainbow last weekend down 95' on the rigger which seems rare but does tell me I've been putting too many lines too high. Cayuga has certainly been hot this year but I'm hopeful it'll back to our turn in the next couple years.

    Thanks for the insight and keeping the positive attitude [emoji106]

    Cayuga 8/13

    Got a late start out of Deans Cove a little after 10. Setup on the east side with 2 deep on the riggers and stacker spoons at 50 and 60. Put out 8 color lead core and headed south. Started picking up dinks on the stackers and the lead core every 5 minutes or so. Between the sun and humidity it felt like we were going to melt. After an hour of putting back little rainbows and landlocks one of the stackers fired with a tail-dancer rainbow. He had all but swallowed the hole spoon and buried the entire treble in his throat. Now I know why I normally swap all my spoons to single hooks. By the time I got him unhooked he'd had it. Didn't have my scale on board but at 24 1/2" he was easily 5-6 lbs, so in the cooler for dinner.

    Spent a couple more hours running from the t-storms up and down the lake and picking up small silvers - lost count after a dozen or more and called it quits when the radar showed a storm coming that had Seneca completely covered. Luckily we got back on the trailer just before the skies opened up. Quite an exciting day but grateful for a nice fish and the rain to cool things down a bit.

    Cayuga afternoon 7/30

    Waited out the rain and hit Cayuga for a couple hours late afternoon. Went 4 for 7 silver fish, Mary Jo still needs some practice getting them to the boat but had loads of fun! Kept one landlock for dinner and let the others swim to be bigger next time.
