I've caught a couple gulls but never trolling. Glad you had another great days.

My brother, Ken, arrived Thursday from Cape Cod. We did some scouting and set up his blind. Friday we headed to Lake Ontario and caught a nice limit of browns by 7:30. This morning he took a nice Tom with 1" spurs I passed on a small Jake as I have may days left to hunt. The next two weekends I'm headed to Quinte for walleyes, followed by a trip to Cape Cod for strippers, and then some fly fishing at St Regis Falls. Gosh I love May. Only wish it had more than 31 days!

Yum, Did some with dark brown sugar and some with my neighbors dark maple syrup.

I smoked some yesterday and couldn't tell the difference either.

But some of the silver ones have orange flesh and others have whitish flesh. But it must be diet related.

I have a question concerning the flesh color of the brown trout. Why are some beautiful orange and others a whitish gray? I thought the thinner gold colored ones that had ventured up the rivers had the lighter colored flesh but some of the fat silver footballs also have the lighter flesh while others have the beautiful orange flesh. Any ideas? Does the color effect the flavor of the fish?

SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS First light had rods popping. Couldn't get all the rods set for the first hour and had our limit of nine by 7:30. Several doubles and at times only had one rod set. A couple of 6-8 lbs and one about 9 lbs. the rest were cookie cutters. At about 9:00 the wind shifted and we couldn't find the fish. Washed lures for two hours without a take. Fished toward Selkirk and found warm muddy water but still no fish. Waves kicked up and we headed in. A lot more traffic out today. A bit of combat fishing, at times, but I expect that on the weekends.

====================

Great day, glad the weather finaly turned. I'l be out again tomrrow or Weds. Hope they are still on.

Looks like they still want to play. I'll be back this week. Thanks for posting.

Sounds like you had a great day. Make sure you show your friends from work the photos and make sure to not invite them again.

Glad you hit them. I spent the day in NYC and will be getting out again next week. Action certainly has been cosistent

Silver/green has been good color for us.

Nice post. Glad you had a great day. We had similar results. Those are the days you will never forget.Very difficult to get all lines set at times. GPS was covered up with way points where we we hitting them. I've been down several times and have caught exclusively browns (over 50) with the exception of one small steelie. Nice average size to the browns.

Good luck!

Flat line off boards and also off riggers.

Thanks for the report. With the weather conditions I'm sure you earned those fish.

Yes he was.

Yep, Glazed up from spay pretty good on the run to Sandy. You did better than us. We hit the browns on chartreuse J9 and J11. You guys seemed to be working the outside mud edge in a little deeper water. We tried it but came up empty. Glad you had a decent day. It will only improve.

That's actually Ted Jones but Mr Walleye was with us.

SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS Tried closer to home and were less successful than at Mexico yesterday. Started with clear cold water off Stony and quickly ran west to Sandy. Found water with good mud line and a couple degrees warmer. Hit a couple fish so worked the area a while and popped a couple more. All on sticks, bright colors. Things then went dead and we were unable to connect again. Don't believe the eat wind helped. Only saw a couple other boats.
