I did, after the 3 bass, one carp and lots of sunfish, I figured the trout and salmon didn't get the message.

So hard to decide what to do. I did manage to bring up the 12lb laker from 143fow on a dipsy (mind you mag diver, #1 setting, White pearl glow SD and green A-TOM-MIK fly) and then a nice coho (6lbs) on a slider hit with a wonderbread in about 135fow, but only down 45' on the rigger, so I image the free slider was about 25-30foot. Saw LOTS of bait from a mile east of Hughes all the way to Pultneyville, in anywhere from 110-140 fow. Most only down 20-40 foot. Lot of stained water and some temp breaks between 40-55 foot down, depending on how far east or west, or north/south. But getting fish to bite is insane, no matter how many color changes, speed and depth changes or direction changes. There were a couple of other short hits, one battle with a 5 foot stick on a monkey puke spoon (in case you wanted to know the depths of my changing lures out) and hear of one good 200 copper rip over 300fow, but I didn't want to venture off the bait pods to check the deeper water. YES its transition time, waiting for July to come around, but honestly, (outside of browns, and some lakers) fishing last year and here for SILVER fish has been much worse than the ~5 years prior. Just seem to move right past to OZtown!

Yes, it is usable. The docks are in and a solid 8-12" above the water level. They have done a great job this year keeping it clean. Just make sure you get your pass, they have been checking a lot! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Dang, I wanted them Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Awesome boat, would like to see some interior pics? Does it have shore power hookup? I understand it doesn't have outdrives, but where it is located, could outdrives be purchased and installed? The drive across the lake once spring comes would not be hard...at least for me... But need to understand. Also, not sure if one or both chartplotters are or are not included? Jason

PS: Is this what you do on your week off and temps are in the 60's!

YOUR KILLING ME SMALLS. I will make you an offer you cant refuse. Half the dock fees and fill up the tank, you can use it anytime you want, Ryan!!!!!

WOW!!!

What an amazing boat for the money...... and having fished on it, its well worth it at $7K with the riggers, autopilot and misc equipment. To bad I already have a Penn Yan of my own....and next jump will be 30' plus!! Or I would be all over this! PS: Just make sure you get all that laker slime off the deck! :rofl:

And yet yesterday in that same water, they wanted orange and my greens never fired once. GREEN flies however were going, especially off white/pearl glow Spindoctors. Managed one 20 lb king, but there were a few other 20-30 kings done in that 45-60 fow yesterday. Finished 3 for 4 on a solo trip, so I am not complaining.... but again, its not hot and heavy, my brown and king came in 5 minutes of each other, and then the next brown and the whatever I lost on the 10 color, came within 15 minutes of each other.... the other 7 hrs I never moved a rod! LOL

Worst year I have seen, with more skunks than I can count. Normally bad days were 2-3 fish, good days 8-10+ fish, and 1-2x being skunked. This year, best day was 8 fish, had more than a dozen skunks, landed one darn Major (that was this weekend) and while I lost a few, I was averaging 1-3 fish most outings and if not for a few nice 10# steelies, some lakers and browns here and there, it would have been better to fish for smallmouth! If it weren't for a lot of other people having bad days and a lot of that from Rochester basin to Fair haven, I would have said it was me, but I know it wasn't. Fishing West off the Niagara was good from what I heard and saw, and OZ definitely had some action, but the inbetween seemed VERY hit and miss.......and I definitely missed more than I should have. If they reduce the stocking numbers like they are talking about, I am thinking their will be a lot more years like this.

Nice Fish BEN!

That was very good...... thank you for sharing! Jason
