Ditto on Sodus for the previous stated reasons.
I dry dock in Sodus and the bay along with Cayuga Lake have saved many weekends because Ontario was too rough. You’re also able to hit Cayuga and Ontario in the same day!

Sounds like a great quick trip!! I'm just starting to tinker with slide divers. When you say 100 foot lead is that from spoon to diver? I ran a slide last week on Cayuga set 60 feet from lure to diver in 50 fow. but then started wondering about how much play was there with such a long leader. It attracted at least one laker which was not exactly what I was hoping for but a fish is a fish.... Are you using flouro leader or mono and what lb test? Thanks!

Nice job fishing and I'm with you on the pie. Our rhubarb patch has been yielding well this Spring. Sometimes wishing dessert could be the Appetizer!!

Thanks for the info. Memorial weekend Cayuga temps were 57-58 on the surface so it's changing quickly

Welcome aboard! Great picture. Thanks for posting

Congratulations on a great weekend. There's no doubt putting in the time on the water and trying different things starts to pay off with more fish in the boat.

That is the ultimate mixed bag!! What is considered an Owasco Slam?!
We had a nice Sunday morning on Cayuga and like you the fish were in skinny among some huge bait pods. Water temps on top stayed about 57 degrees. Our mixed bag only consisted of Lakers, 1 Brown, and 1 Landlock even though at times we were weaving around the perch flotilla. Oh, we also managed to bring in 3 alewives latched onto spoons. Beautiful days to kick off the Summer fishing season

Get on the website, www.greatlakesplaners.com. They have all the parts on there. I just had to order a knob last month when my first mate let the knob unscrew all the way and it went for a swim!!

Fished solo today. Only ran two rods in shallow 4-15 ft, water was gin clear but managed to go 11 for 13 from 11am to 6:30pm. It was an all spoons bite, anything that had green.
Will give it another go tomorrow until lunch.
WTG, That sounds extraordinary for clear water in skinny. All Browns? Did you notice what the water temps were in there?

Please don’t hold fish by the lips if releasing them. If you need to pick them up hold the tail in one hand and support the belly with the other
No worries. If the plan is release, they are netted and barely out of the water to measure for the DEC diary. If they hold that pose with me they are slated for dinner. Can't beat lake to table on the same day!

Launched at Dean's before sunrise and first thing focused on fishing in close, primarily 25 feet or less. Set a rigger and it fired before I had the second rod set. First fish was a 29" Laker full of steam. The rest of the trip was hit or miss action as multiple times 2 rods would fire, then would be quiet. Sun came out strong midmorning and thought the bite would quit but found a pocket of active fish and kept circling the area and the fish kept biting. Ended up landing a batch of healthy Lakers from 24-31", and 2 decent Rainbows. Spoons on riggers and short cores were the best producers today. Felt like a midsummer morning out there today. Looking forward to more great days ahead.

Great stuff and you were blessed with great weather too!! Thanks for sharing

Great looking catches!! That East wind sure made you bundle up. So you were trolling up at Fair Haven and catching Pike and Walleye! I have never caught a walleye but never targeted them either. On my bucket list so might be asking for some advice one of these days .....

That colored water was out past 30 feet in spots Sunday. How quickly the lake can change.
Glad to see you getting out there. Weekday fishing with friends and a full box.....I'm jealous.

Great report! We were out there as well. Didn't get a king but enjoyed the slow pick of browns. We took a break this morning. Maybe head back out this afternoon. Definitely tomorrow morning.

Still learning the ropes fishing Ontario so I feel very fortunate to boat my first shallow King last week and then get into 2 for a newcomer yesterday. After dealing with those 2 flying around behind the boat I believe he is hooked on fishing Ontario. Glad to hear you were out and can get out again soon. Let us know what you find out there!!
