  1. Splitshot...

    I noticed the lake was much colder near/below AES than I expected. The southern end of the lake has warmed up considerably. I thought with the recent few hot days that the high 30 degree temps were gone. The temps were in the areas I landed fish. It was higher around Meyers.. falling in the range you listed.

  2. Fished North of Meyers/ South of AES (Miliken) both east and west side

    6am to 9:30am

    Flasher/flie combo did nothing (greens)

    Switched to spoons. Immediately got 2 lakers- 20" and 16"

    Dark colors worked- purple and alwife

    Depth was 100ft on bottom

  3. mjb,

    I have had the same results as you, everything on flies/flasher for around a month now. This is the first success I have had with spoons in a while. I don't have gps for speed. I just know that the flasher/fly works better at a slightly higher speed than the spoons.

    Another thing is that I get the biggest fish on spoons.

  4. Chowder,

    That was me with the white dog. Thanks for the welcome.

    I really enjoyed Sat. I replaced my fuel lines earlier and made one a little too long and it kinked in an out of the way place. Even rough running on the way in couldn't mess up that day!

    I'll probably be the one asking you for advice...I'm pretty green at deep water.

    Some info on the LL and browns. A topo map (fishing hot spots) recommends the two deep water runs Frontenac Point N to AES, and the Atwaters to Sheldrake run. Both are over the 400 ft water. They say;

    These long narrow strips over deep water seem to hold most of the LL from mid summer through early fall. Look for them ABOVE the thermocline sometimes only 30-50 ft down. Fast troll spoons. Lots of Rainbows will take these same lures.

    I know its a "fishing map" (sigh) but the info it has has been pretty accurate for me.

  5. Was out early Sat morning west side N of Taughannock (across from AES). Lakers were hitting better than they have in a few weeks for me. There were a good number of jiggers out, a few downriggers, me doing dipsys and the best of all...an older gent pulling copper with a manual rig in a 12 to 14 footer.

    Using glow spoon/ glow dodger was working. Dirty White Boy and Alwive were not. Never got to try silver...my usual best.
