  1. Went out last night and poof the fish were gone again Im sure 200 would have been productive but watching a climbing thunder head persued me to head back as it was a solo trip Only one other boat also Hopefully saturday will bring better 35 years on LO has taught me patience GOOD FISHING
  2. Ive noticed over the years salmon move around alot and its very common to find them gone overnight.yesterday our area was loaded with fish today very few probabaly due to temperature flucuations.So few are fishing now so its takes alot of time to find them.The lake is stil far better than most other big ponds.lol
  3. Winds to build after 800 some nw enjoy today My fish all came on chrome green white mirage fly Goof luck

  5. Nice fish.saw you go by when i was hand reeling my king lol
  6. thanks the reel that burned out was a older dawai LC
  7. these fish travel with bait.Ive found them shallow and in deep water half way down with bait. Its going to be a good year but you have to scout them out.Small sinkos black have been very productive except you usally lose them after a fish(cost)
  8. should be good after the storms pass, lots of cold water in close with many kings and lots of bait perfect conditions, The perfect king event
  9. Noce king right away chro?e green & white spinny 80 ft water diver .burned out reel had to bring to net. by hand.24 lbs
  10. Tomorrow morning looks good ,did a little scouting late and lots of nice big fish around our port.Cant get over how few boats have been out probaably due to dismal reports.Flasher fly with a silver horde running ab0ve it use to take almost all the kings we caught.Good luck tomorrow all.
  11. Same here east of sodus.One charter had i hit all day.It was awhopper thought 32 lbs,lol Bass though are plentiful late .They hit so hard there out jumping before you can get the rod up.Warm water does tire them easier so the fight is short compared to cooler water
  12. I gave up on getting a new screen gadget.My old Garmin 178c is probably better than many new.I purchased a newer 431s and while simplier to use unreliable probably cause garmin went to mainline China.The 178c was made in free china taiwan I visited there many years ago on R&R while in Vietnam.My sons have HD works great on shallow for structure like pipelines.
  13. Fished morning trip with Captain Dick.Lots of fish around we went 5 for 8 mostly small kings a nice coho .Didnt bother with the lakers though we spoted many..Tons of bait and fish thermocline was streched out so fishing was slow for large kings though we marked many.best action was about 105 to 115 ,west of our port.Small MK took many fishas a slider.green and silver was better later before the storm We marked many fish today with good bait.There should be little concern of lack of fish.lack of boats on the water compared to former years is more common.lol Went out late for bass ,fish are deep 28 to 40 ft have a good fishing weekend john
  14. I like the idea of a safety line I use cannon ratchet metal rod holders so no worry of the holder breaking like the plastic I have on riggers.One idea if you drop something make a way point on your gps and might get lucky snagging it later.Afriend of mine droped his temp probe and had a diver go back and found it for him using the waypoint.great fishing report thanks
  15. Hi fellow trollers yesterday i went out solo.I took temp inside and found the thermocline started about 80 ft.I marked alot of bait and fish inside but few majors ,so i went out to 200 and marked my first king 120 over 200.I had a small spread 1 mag black diver with a green dot silver spiny took the first small king about 6 lbs.The next hit was a magnum NK 160 over 210.A larger fish about 12 lbs.next hit came on a mag diamond king green tape and glow .Good productive spoon over the twenty plus years Ive used them.I had a few other hits before I came as the iwind died and it was to hot to enjoy the fishing. Good luck John
  16. great post .Solo trips are great no worry of others expectations not being met,LOL excellent report on the gold and white spinny ,Ill have to find today. Thanks John
  17. a boat out of pultneyville also reported good fishing at 200 for salmon.Great to hear there around now.Fish were caught deep also 120 over 200.
  18. Hey don"t let a little thing rattle you.It's not what others do its more about our self control that matters. people do things that annoy us not to annoy us. As far as boat sells go buyer beware is always advised,lol Good fishing john
  19. Lots of smallies around here spawning.Had a nice one spawning by my dock earlier.Last year the bass tend to move deep now chasing bait.I think the crabs are few thanks to the goby.I caught qite a few over 60 ft last year some on copper while trout fishing.The state could get things going faster with some hatchery effort on smallies.
  20. Hey if your a democrat in wayne, oswego ,cayuga and onondaga county don't forget to vote in today"s primary race. thanks
