Took a friend and his two young sons out at 6. Set up in 150 at 630 and headed northwest. Yesterday’s north east wind blew in some cold water, 50 degrees was down 50. Spin Dr down 50, mag spoon down 40. Went 3 for 4 and headed back around 9. Dipsy rods never took a hit. Current and fleas were a pain but manageable. Kids had a ball.
No Lampreys no lakers!
I’m heading out a little east of you but not much. Hard to say what the wind blew in temp wise.
Im setting in 100, finding 50 ish down and working north west. See what I come across.
Lake is about 6 miles long. Crazy thing is it has a good population of Alewives.
Bass, Tigers, Browns and Walleye grow crazy big there. Not the easiest lake to pattern but there is always the chance at a monster. That Tiger was probably 8 lbs and 32 inches. Just guessing. Lake holds Tigers that are 30lbs.
Some day lol.
Spent the day with Justin Okrepki on Otisco today. I fish with him a couple times or more every year. As always it was awesome. I can’t say more about that lake and the opportunities it offers.
Justin is all in when it comes to fishing and I love watching him work. If you want a change of pace, a day on the lake with him is a great value and always fun. He has an RV on site to stay in which is a huge plus if you’re taking the drive. Highly recommend.
Dickey and I were out from 630 to 10 looking for Browns. Found them but as has been the case for me lately no big ones. Did get a decent king out of temp.
Went with my wife from noon to 230 in 200 to 300 looking for Kings. Found a few but again nothing big. Beautiful day on the water. Fleas were in pretty thick but contrary to popular belief were more of a pain on 30lb big game than they were on my braided dipsys.
Happy Fourth to all.
Currently 36 inches on a calm day hugging the west side. The shallow spot on the east side is soft, watched folks churning it up both this morning and afternoon.
Mops if you ever want to jump on mine rather than drop yours let me know. I usually go Wednesday and Sunday mornings and usually am back at the dock by noon.
