government don't give a crap of the of the damage seneca lake had in the past or in the future , they talk a good story but as said above big money wins every time . look at Flint, Michigan .
i also loss two big silvers there this year . one snap the leader witch was 15 lb seguar red label . due to drag to tight . then the other the split ring gave up the ghost . those LL have a big attitude and are strong fish even the small one go crazy . nice report and good luck next time out . go get them Les.
i am one of the guys that would be a die hard and fish seneca any time of the year . after reading LES post he hit the nail right on the head . that is why i read his post cause of his knowledge and expertise . thanks for the insight Les .
if i was just getting into trolling this time of year i would stay away from the tackle stores and wait for sales to kick in the as salmon fishing is winding down. shop e bay , here on LOU . I know you said didn't want the wed but will find better deals . as new comers get into the sport there is people getting out of the sport . after getting the basics there will plenty of time to spend thousands at the tackle shops .
I like mi stingers (standard ) size . lot of the guys use flasher flies . my buddy did some kind of test with suttons and stingers came out a tie . that being said on cayuga you can troll any thing and catch fish
the combat trolling get intense in the fall derby ,recreational fisher men or women get zero to slim respect on the water when it come to a charter boat .
thanks to the group that grab the torch and holing it high for the further derbies also thank you for the group that step down after a long time of services they made a lot of good memories for a lot of people ,if there was a fall derby i would enter it as well as the spring derby .
those tail dancing bows and silvers are a blast . it is got to be the hottest , driest summer ny has had in long time . sure is weird to hear new yorks get excited for rain. nice report , good luck next time out .
took two of my buddies fishing on cayuga . they have had no luck catching fish this year at all. we set up on the west side and was marking fish but nothing like it has been . an hour went by and no hook ups , man you guys are bad luck i said . then it turn into non stop action . lakers at first some were big most were small. we got sick of lakers so headed to east side and crank up the speed to 2.8 and we got into the land locks put 6 nice size ones in the cooler even had some type of fish hit hard to brake off a 15 pound leader . buddy had drag turn up for got to reset it . they caught a lot of fish today and were happy guys . the fleas and weed pods were not a issue at all again used spoons on two seth green rods only .
