    Shakedown cruise this morning with my twin brother (yu kiginger) out of Irondequoit. Launched about 6:30, put a flatlined stick straight back as we cleared the pier and had a cookie cutter brown in just a few minutes. we took another few small browns and one small king at 7 lbs. King hit a purple and white r&r spoon down just 6 ft. We fished in 15-30 ft of water all morning between the bay and Shipbuilders. Lots of small marks, but few decent marks. Had one other decent fish get off, ending 5 for 6. Slower than I had hoped based on reports, but I'm not capable of putting those numbers in the boat, I'm afraid. Nice to be out, but doesn't look promising tomorrow.

    Got a little later start than yesterday, but got fishing about 7 with my brother (yukiginger). We started in about 90 fow pretty much straight out of the bay. Had a small steelie on an orange and black spoon pretty quickly, but got off about 30 feet back. That fish was only about 20 ft. down. Continued trolling north, and at 200 ft, despite a pretty blank screen, had a nice rip on the dipsy out 135' with a white spin doctor with black and green dots and green and white fly. After a nice battle, landed a 22 lb. king. We worked that same area a litte while, but without many fish on the screen, decided to continue north to join a few boats that were out deeper. Unfortunately, we still didn't have much action or see any activity in 325-400, so pulled lines and went back into 200. The screen had improved, and we took a few more shots on the same dipsy rig, landing a baby king and a small brown. Had one more spoon bite, but that fish got off just after a few seconds. Nice to put a good fish on the deck, and spend the holiday weekend fishing with my brother on LO. Other than a storm that was a little too close for comfort yesterday afternoon, the winds and waves were quite favorable. Thanks to all who share information on this site.

    Got out the last two days with my brother out of Ibay. Mid afternoon yesterday started in about 100 fow, marked occasional fish, worked a waypoint or two in the 100-150 range, but couldn't get them to go. Pulled and motored out to 250 to check on things, but saw nothing. Went out again this morning, fishing around 6:30 and set down in about 90 fow. Again, only occasional marks, mainly in the top 50 fow. Worked all the way out to 300 feet without moving a rod. Saw a boat hook up twice with small to medium fish, didn't see anyone else getting into anything. Worked back into about 140, marked lakers on the bottom and dropped a dipsy with bloody death spin doctor and purple fly down, and caught two. One was a nice, fat 16 lb'er, and the other a 9 lb. fish. Picked up one more small laker a little while later on a cheated purple and white spoon, probably only down about 30'. Nice to put something on the deck. Disappointing that we couldn't many of the higher marks to go, but we'll give it another try in the morning. Good luck to all.

    Thanks, Iceman. I thought it would generate more interest. I was up this past weekend, cleaned it up nice, fired it up, and it's now for sale at Arney's Marina in Sodus Point. If anyone is interested, please call Bob Boise at Arney's at 315-483-9111.

    Bumping it up.... This is a great boat, very versatile. It can be used as a cruiser; I've taken 6 people for pleasure rides, and has nice open fishing decks and easy access with the side console. If you're interested in it as a non-fisher, I would remove some of the fishing equipment and adjust price accordingly. Please see my original posting for full details. Asking $13000. I will be removing the boat from storage this weekend, will fire her up and she'll be ready to hit the lake. Truly a turnkey boat ready to fish, in great condition at only 5 years old. Could even arrange a trip on the water for someone seriously interested.
