PD Buoy

So sorry this has happened to you, 

Hey Mike I would try cranking down on the ez-steer bar screws and see if that helps. On my Baha I had to get the longest bar available from ez-steer otherwise it would keep coming out of the bracket.

A friend of mine texted me this morning that he boxed out on browns by 8 am. yesterday boxed out on salmon in the deeper water as mentioned by cnyh2. He is out of catfish creek. Good time to be fishing Mexico Bay !! Good luck, we will be there all next week. Tight lines everybody.

Spring kings are the best, good job Adk1 !!

Great job Gill-T, am I jealous? you damn straight I am. Good luck next week with the kings

Really.  How do you know?  The post doesn't even specify what rod and reels...... not saying they worth a grand but now would anyone know by the post? 

I counted 13 rods and ten reels in the picture included, just know how much I paid for mine, 

46K firm  I'm sure worth every penny !!

The rods and reels are worth way more than a grand, look on ebay.

Go to Fat Nancy's with a thousand bucks and see what you can get, nevermind 8% sales tax. For a newcomer this would be a great value, good luck sir, well worth it.!!

Would you be willing to tell me what plugs worked so well. I really need experienced advice so I can try to catch some. Thank you very much. 

Green glow J-plugs have always worked early and late in the day. High noon silver bullet J-plugs

To all LOU members, I have a web cam on my lake house in sunset bay can give lake reports anytime. Looks like it's blowing pretty bad right now, tight lines.........Pete

Does this boat have a dog house ?

I will say this , and I have been doing this a long time . 

 

Sometimes you get pushed to do be places you don't want to be . One boat will be headed one way and the other another and all of a sudden you are in a precarious place  with nowhere to go. Especially with an inexperienced driver  on any of the boats . You really have to look ahead and anticipate what other boats are doing .And even that will sometimes get you in trouble . More than  once I have had to push it up to 6 MPH to get out of trouble  because another boat cut in front of would not give space . 

X2, that has happen to me more once in Mexico bay

What is the beam on this vessel and what does it draft?

That young man is a future charter captain, good luck will always follow him!!

I have been aboard this vessel, very well maintained, very clean and would make a great boat for someone wanting to upgrade. The auto pilot alone is worth well over 2 grand. Good luck Tony with your sale !!

Prime time for browns and spring kings !!

You are absolutely right, there is nothing better than a cold water chrome spring king !!! Great report good luck to everyone this season.

Great report thanks for the info, it can only get better from here as temps warm up !!

Launched next to the CG station at 7:30am, pulled out at 1:30pm. Trolled west to Pultneyville and then back. Water temp hovered around 43.5 deg but did see 44. Thought we were gonna hammer the browns but only boated 4. Nicest one was an 8 pounder followed a 6 and two 2-pounders.  What a great day on the water,,, sunny, light breeze, and very little boat traffic.  Looked like lots of boats in the bay after perch.

On the eastern shore, Oswego-Salmon river rarely do we see the seafloellen type of brown trout with the yellow hue, classic brown trout. More of the silvery salmon type to the east. Beautiful fish !!!

Yeah those bugs, suck although enjoy the flat calm. On the eastern shore it really heats up after a NW blow, all the bait and browns are in close and can be feast fest. Hang in there Mikey water temps will be heating up, just a matter of timing. I have alive web cam on my lake house so can give lake reports to anyone heading out. Tight lines !!

For someone new to Lake Ontario or looking for a bigger platform, this boat is set up to the max with a lot expensive equipment really represents a great value for small money

Hoping to be out there the week of May 7th, so give a shout on channel 9 if your out there that week and we'll trade secrets. good luck everyone!!!

Hey Mikey I have fished those same waters for 38 years, try fishing the skinny water from Catfish creek to the high rocks to sunset bay, lots of browns in the shallow, warmer water especially low light conditions. Also can be a king bite into deeper water offshore. Good luck and have a great season in 2023 !!
