i hear ya , i had a blazer that the lights came on when started . then i found out when the parking park was on they went out , but who use the parking park with auto trans

i would to say when unloading or loading your boat in the dark and there is more than one ramp/ lane please turn off your head lights so you don't blind the guy trying back into the ramp next to you . a very simple thing to do it can make things run more smoothly...

i am seeing for sunday NNE winds at 7 to 9 knots but that can change as we all know

Sodus mid week hit the lake at 5 30 and went out following the charters . they set down in the inside water so i stop to take a look and there was bait and fish in 80 foot so started fishing . spoons on riggers with cheaters and one dipsy . i had 72 degrees on top and 50 degrees at 40 foot down . set one rigger at 35 and the other 55 foot, dipsy 220 foot of wire . in 170 fow took two hits on the dipsy and droop them both . so drop one rigger to 65 and soon later pick up a king on the cheater . a brown on the other rigger . trolled to 300 and back in to 250 when the rigger released and i landed a small king. so i ended the morning 3 for 5 . most of the boat started in the inside and ended out in 500 foot range . gator s/d with hammer fly on dipsy ,spoons that took fish was d and w greasy chicken and mi stinger blue jeans and wash a bunch more . i be back out tomorrow morning but i found my e z steer bracket to the i/o crack . i will get it welded up and be ready for sunday hope the lake don't get ruin with blow coming again . only pic today all cut up in small pieces and beer batter .

awesome , cant beat that fishing trip

i am going tomorrow but think going be hard fishing due to the NE -N blow . need a west wind again

could be pita at deans cove too. have to hope to hit a early board fish to beat the guys / gals trying to get off the the lake and the pleasure boater trying to get on the lake

i would say lake wide but must be at sportsman club in ovid by 1:30 so would think deans cove would be best ..

flash flood warning today raining really hard now

i fished wednesday ,saturday ,sunday , in sodus from 120 to 550 fow had very little fleas and would shake off the rod tip when did get a little of them . maybe the water currents push the fleas to oz .

sodus 7/23 my friend Craig and i headed out for some salmon action this morning hoping the wind was going to hold off ,as i wanted to put him on some kings instead of seth green fishing for lake trout on the finger lakes . we bang threw the 1 to 3 foot waves to 400 fow set up with the NE wind. ,two riggers with spoons and cheaters , two dipsy with spin doctor and flies. first release with in 15 mins of trolling but gone before we could get to the rod . half hour later a drive bye on the a rigger pulling spoons .( not doing so good ) put another 2 hours in working 450 to 575 fow and not seeing any marks . started to work with the NE wind back in ,when we hit 430 fow the dipsy went off and we landed our first fish of the morning . a smaller king .set back up work the same water over again and did another king on the same dipsy rod pulling a gator SD and hammer fly . adult king ,then that was it for 1 1/2 so i started working back into the inside waters , nothing to show from trolling 400 to 250 fow so i said might as well clean these fish . i open this king up , he is just filled with alewife, i started chumming , so i got this mess cleaning fish and the rigger fires i landed that as my buddy didn't want to get in the blood and guts for another king .i finish cleaning fish and called it a day 3 for 5 today , ever eat fresh salmon eggs , don't they don't taste so good .

here is one i like to do when the king comes a long side of the boat, the driver slows down and the king will start to go faster then the boat and will move away from the side of the boat . the rod man reels down the driver speeds up the net guy is in the back corner and the king will comes to him . so it can be netted from behind . all in the timing ..

Sodus 7/ 22 solo trip again, went 9 for 9 today all spoon bite . started in 140 fow water trolled to 200 fow turn around trolled back to 150 fow then back to 200 fow did two kings pick up and ran out to 400 fow set and trolled to 560 fow ,the bite was pretty good out deep . stringer uv spoon did the job for me . riggers 75 to 110 with cheaters . nadda on dipsy for me ended up pulling it was getting turn around with the rollers / chop . had no tangles tho with it, did have a big king cross the dipsy rod and was able to take the rods and go under the other. spent 12 hours in the boat , was a awesome day. hoping my buddy will go tomorrow for some more action ... forgot my camera and my phone is shot time to replace it

heading out to improve on my solo technique , a whole another game
