Some times leadales all the difference 

great news,

I went out Sunday late out of my port. Marked some nice bait 60 to 80.Put out a few 10 color rods with carbon 14 and NBK.It was a nice night awesome sunsets. A great way to end the day on the water.

Going to set up some mooching rods this week and give it a try.

The last few years I have had best luck the point east of Pult.

Good luck and have a safe summer.

I was out  and found 70 had best screen bait and fish

Others did ok 200 out cohos

Small kings

Always glad I'm still able to get out 

up until the ninetys our best lake fishing was smallmouth bass.All you needed was a deer hair gig.I also used white mister twisters.just about anywhere inside 25 feet was hot .Then came the crash .some say it was a fish virus others say the frequent lake turnovers that year played a part.

My idea would be a mass stocking in Wayne county area and see if the extra fish could help eliminate gobies .

IT would help with natural reproduction

Irondequoit bay did a private stocking of walleyes and it worked. Its now has a great walleye fishery.

maybe we could also get a club going to raise some bass fry.

Wonder if anyone has similar ideas are welcome.

I went to gas up at hughes today before the storm.

nice catch,how clear is the water down your way?

our color is started to return  and kings are getting caught over deeper water.have a great season

Browns were good up to return 41 gin water.

Abdyreeker blue silver.chartue orange off planets

Hopefully better conditions soon

Wilson sounds like where you want to be know

hi

after watching salmon caught this way I cant wait to try it here.I have also heard the Northshore fishermen have had good luck.

Many times we have found pods of salmon in deep water .

Any one else have experience using these skills I would like to hear more,

thanks

Perch fishing in Sodus has been great. Try deep water off the loop.

I use small plastic green and brown on a drop sinker or a 1/2 oz stingnose.No bait  needed .

rest of the week looks good cold weather next week might bring some ice.

many launch at float bridge ,coast guard is open at the point,.

Happy new year

The sockeye or “reds” as the locals call them were in full swing when I was there. You can see the run numbers right on the Alaska fish+game website, and this year had quite a bit more fish show up. 
 

You likely were not fishing for sockeye with eggs or any type of lures as they don’t eat like other salmon…their diet consists solely of zooplankton. The technique to catch them is to floss across the lanes they run in, which takes some practice. It’s mostly done from shore in water that’s about knee deep.   The limit was 3/day in July, and we would limit out within an hour or so once we got the technique figured out. 
 

In August is when the Coho start to show up in numbers in the Kenai, and people will fish for those from boats using standard salmon bait and lures.

 

Now that we got alot of fleas,good food source for sockeye?eh

How was the halibut fishing?

Thanks

I was there in mid-july of this year on the kenai. We had a king charter booked that turned into a sockeye charter once alaska fish and game closed the river to king fishing two days before the trip. It was not hard to figure out why, as the fishing pressure there was pretty insane. 

How was the sockeye run?did you catch manyand how?

thanks

The trip I toook the guide used a driftboat and bait(eggs)also lures like hotshot.Saw a few taken on the trip downstream, a few moose,no bears

I went to the kenai in 2000 for kings and it was a skunk,lots of trout and silvers offshore 

Tomorrow and Tuesday look good for offshore kings steelhead

Light south winds

Warmmmmm.

Gigging is getting popular on west coast, they call it mooching kings.

Better than trolling 

Great you came.were there many boats catching fish?

Marked most fish 25 to 35 sat

Temp was 64 downside was little bait

You never know what best time

Noon has been good for kings 

Perch are showing up in bays sodus 

Catching some around my harbor also

Nice size

I ice fish with a vexilar underwater camera, we've used it on the boat a couple times. Has a 90' lead and infrared lights. Aqua vu makes some top notch gear, and if I could go back and buy again I'd probably go that route.

The cameras have limited depth aqua has a 125 cable unit it's expensive

For Lakers you need 200 cable

Many rov go 100m

I've been looking for a rov to help study fish and wreck exploring

There are quite a few wrecks near here mostly deep water 

I think using a camera would help improve jigging also 

Anyone who has info let us know 

One problem with rov is reliability mostly are fgn made

Thank 

John
