we stayed there the first 3 weekends in april and had a blast. nice to come in a chill on the couch or shoot some pool or play the big buck game which we def sank some money into having competitions with some of diamond j's clients. good relaxing place with everything you need right in short walking distance.

woody, i thought of the cottages but the availability at them during fall loc is about the same as cottages on oak orchard the 2nd weekend in october. [ Post made via Mobile Device ]

try the lodge right in town. its right across the street from abes waterfront, and captain jacks is right next to that. the tackle shop is a block away and a convience store a block and a half. we stayed there in early spring when it was still a bit cold to stay in the boat and the hospitality was terrific for a really reasonable price. you should be able to get a slip at warrens right up the street. hope ive helped. there honestly is not a lot of lodging around sodus. you can also check places like cherry grove campground and south shore campground but availability during the fall loc is probably very limited and your looking at a bit of a drive to any boat slips or bar and grills.

Nice trip. Guys were up yesterday and neither boat would run properly. Thinking it's a fuel problem, as there are a few other boats finding the same problems. [ Post made via iPod ]

Thanks, the pick was still pretty tough. I think I'm about ready for some reels to start smokin. They should def be here any day. Hopefully by the time I get back up. There will at least be a steady show of teeners with some majors [ Post made via iPod ]

abe, you heading out in the mornin? im headed up to the boat later this evening to fish tomorrow. nice fishing today btw! [ Post made via Mobile Device ]

Noticing significantly less boat traffic at sodus as well. Doesn't help that fuel on the water is nearly 4.50 a gallon. The weather for the holiday weekend wasn't nearly as nice as some would like either. However aside from a few light showers this past weekend was gorgeous and I don't really recall seeing more than a few pleasure boats that weren't fishing. [ Post made via Mobile Device ]

All lakers came off the gold watermelon C5 on the boards. now you know what not to use. Steelies were coming off the short riggers and the 300 and 350 surface spoons anything michigan stinger with 3 shots. Tight lines, Stu ====================

Also is ya don't mind a bit of a drive. Hourish check out tillmans village inn on the corner of 98 and 104 between Albion and waterport the prime rib is quite tasty and the prices are reasonable. [ Post made via Mobile Device ]

Nick, we will hopefully greet ur arrival back to home port with full boxes. Anxious to see what that heavy blow did to the temps. Looks like the lake should be decent all weekend though. See ya saturday. Tight lines good luck in the morning [ Post made via Mobile Device ]

when are ya heading east?

not sure about marine weather sites but as im looking right now. its saying for tomorrow a west 10 or less and saturday west 10 or less with chance of afternoon storms wind becoming southeast. (SE is the worst for us getting into our slip)

nick, the link you just posted worked for me. im assuming that was filmed yesterday due to the wind whipping through the mic on your phone. dang auto correct. it mistook wind for wing?

maybe you caught them all, or hopefully you scared them east! looks like its gonna blow up tomorrow. eek

no bite? hows the boat traffic out there?

im dying for some sharking! be up next weekend, halfwired on 68

give warrens hook line and sinker at sodus point a call
