I've used a sitex brand .It is a electric drive unit that attaches to the steering cable.So far it has worked well over 7 seasons.I don't have a trolling motor on my boat.

i hear sodus is producing

Saw this on a you tube up in Alaska.I went there back in 2000 never got a bite.I did see some caught maybe not the peak of the run. July on the Kenea,Wonder if we could raise a few like this one..lol

Brown action has been good in and outside of harbor.I've switch back to jig and bobber for a better bite.Chartreuse has been best.If interested you can get a yearly permit for fishing the harbor through pultneyville mariners for about 100 a year

went out late lake has flipped again 42 offshore 

did have some action in harbor casting cleos on browns

would be productive trolling with planers close to shore

your lucky you got a steelie.Up here when the wind blows east or ne as hard it did today few fish are caught.I did see some nice fish last week in 40 ft but everything has changed since.I did great in the harbor tossing a glow green cleo friday but skunk today

Sunday is supposed to be windy offshore so beware of deep water.I would concentrate around the piers at sodus as its a good spot for late kings and browns.The green cleo also took a nice 25 lb off my dock last week,saw another king taken in the harbor yesterday

Good luck

Went out before the storm 

Cold water 30 down over 50

Lots of fish and bait

Had a nice one on j plug 

Thursday looks good

The fish on the first cast

Came out of the water twenty yards

What a pic 

Then it was one good fight till the hen wore out

If the water was colder it's very hard to hold the fish.

Many times they head for the lake

The flesh was good 

Smoked for sure

I'm only fishing for a few three catch and release till water cools for better survival 

Fishing was great browns sure love fat raps 3 way swivel.

Kings also

Lots of good lake fishing to come

Took a look late .Temperature was basically unchanged 60 on top 55 at 80.Best spot seemed 45 to 55.More bait and more hooks.

had a few rods set with j plugs earlier I heard fish are also being taken 15 to 20  with some in our harbor.

good luck 

id get a second opinion before surgery.i had a bad l5 while it was a pain i did proper therapy and it did heal with no surgery Years ago I had surgery because I had no good therapy at the time and it took a lot longer to heal.

Any good thermocline ?I heard surface temp was 54 ?hope to get out tomorrow>

supposed to lay down later,The fish haven't moved to staging area yet and now is the time to get them.

Hope to see you guys out there later.

Always wanted to lasso a big salmon like they do the tuna and drag him through the back door.now that would be funny.lol

Myself and a friend went out of sodus this morning we had a pretty good day we caught 4 steel head and two kings all came off of chinook divers set on 4 260ft out,every fish hit the silver bullet jay plug,nothing else seemed to get there attention.One king was in the 12lb range and the other was a little smaller all in all it was a bonus day with no tackle being lost unlike some people.Tight lines and we will try again,PS i heard the perch are on the bite in canandaigua  lake.

Nice report we fished Hughes west

King were there  temp still deep 

Pro chip two face took all fish

Many good days left for mature s

Nice glad the kings are still around 

No action for us to day lake flipped very windy 

the best tackle so far for big kings has been a twoface prochip flasher.Any good fly seems to work,blue and mirage has been used,got to get new leaders the kings surechewthem up afterawhile,lol

Hi

My probe  is missing a screw in its cone

Anyone know what size screw and how to fix it

Thanks

Sunday was slower for us compared to friday.We did boat three largest 22 lbs.Seemed the best bite was around 240.Temp gauge was acting up .#300 copper and prochip on dipseys took the kings,seemed the brighter the colors worked best.

One good run ending in bringing in a 24 in laprey

It rained early but the rest of our trip was sun and light winds,few flies and fleas to contend with,

Where are the fisherman ???,first weekend and a handful of boats.

Best action for us was 200 to 250.We went 9 for twelve .Big fish came on prochip black and green dot blue fly on diver set about 120.Water was colder inside a few fish taken.Spoons chicken wing yellow nbk dolphin.Went out saturday fora few hours but little going on inside 100 before rain storm came through.

Hello

We fished the afternoon till dark.Most fish taken 200 250 range 140 down .Didnt take temp.best bite was flashers and bait.Also NBK down 140 was hot.We were 6 for twelve .

Lots of fish and bait marked.

with the present lake level fluctuations the best dok would have been a floater.The dock at the coast guard remains useless much of the time due to high water.A floater would be alot safer also.If I were the town Id take the money offered and put it towards a floater replacement.Maybe a small launch fee to cover costs.

figed late yesterday.Started at 60 to 100 few fish.Came in shallow first fish a nice high teen king 20 ft down ,i125 back over 30 ft.Black and orange silver NK 28.Marked lots of fish off hughes

Salmon have returned like last year.Good catches reported.Fisherman report black with green or orange spoons off riggers 

Ramp is open waiting on fishermen,lol lots of parking

Hughes is great place to come,

Get out today don't delay
