  1. Hit Cayuga out of Sheldrake Sunday, out on the water by 6. We started north on the west side then turned south and trolled just north of taughannock. Good consistent marks at 80' all day but no bite after mid-morning. First laker in the boat was just slightly larger than the spin doctor he was chasing. came on the wire dipsey rod. Next laker was in the 5 lb. range and came off the rigger at 70' in 120 fow on an old O&M lure that has been a good consistent spoon for us this yr. The next laker came a bit later off the other rigger on an "I don't know" stinger spoon and was about 6 lbs. Only action after that was fleas, weeds, more fleas, me donating a Slide Diver complete with a green dot SD/white fly to the fish God's :@ then more fleas. It's becoming a tradition for me to donate big $$$$ tackle during the Red Cross while on Cayuga, this being the 2nd yr. in a row. Congrats to all winners!!!!! :beer::yes:

  2. I absolutely feel the same way. I was watching a different board when I was getting started a few years ago but as soon as I found this one it became the only one I look at. The guys on here are so helpful. Sure makes you want to give some of that back when you can.

  3. Thanks guys ......

    Ed, not sure how long I can keep that up ..... I agree they are tasty

    William, on the speed ...... good advise from you, so THANKS!!!!. Action started just a bit north of where you saw us last Saturday.

  4. Hit the water with my partner Bob a little before 6 this morning. Set up south of Lodi Point heading north running off the riggers and wire dipsy's. We stayed in shallow (30-60 FOW) hoping to attract some landlocks, browns and maybe a rainbow. Marked a lot of bait and what appeared to be fish in among them but nothing was happening. We decided to bump the speed up a bit and shortly after the fun began. My rigger fired first and we had a nice 16"-17" landlock. After returning that one it wasn't long before that same rigger fired again and we landed a 22" rainbow. By 7:00 we had landed several more landlocks for a total of 5 fish, all returned to fight another day. North of the Point we got a decent laker, don't recall the details and then the big trill of the morning .... a nice brown hit an old O&M lure of Bob's that put on quite a show. That fish made several runs and tangled up a few lines but was brought in with some great team work ..... great line clearing and net handling if I do say so myself!!! Great morning!!!! All fish came in shallow and aside from the O&M, most fish came on a Stinger "I don't know" (red and white with blue/red dots on the white)
