    Thanks. I appreciate all the input. I'll continue to experiment around with some suggested set ups. I think the best take away is that I need to head on over to Seneca eventually to find what I'm looking for.

    Mostly I have been trying the same type of set up as I always use just trying to fish in more shallow water, like 50-70 ft.

    I have tried fishing sawbellies. I've also tried using sticks, small and medium stingers and some 8" flasher with flies. All in the shallow waters.

    I think I may get hits on the sawbellies but then they let go. With Lakers I always leave the rod alone until I know they're hooked.

    Thanks for the advice. I've been thinking I need to be in closer to Hammondsport. I've fished with sawbellies and trolling. Haven't done night fishing in many years. Is there a different method to hook the sawbellies for browns and bows? I do the English hook under the skin. I have been told that's not a good way to catch them because they feed differently than lakers. Also do you have any ideas of particular lures/spoon combos? I've tried a bunch of spoons and flasher/fly combos.

    Thanks, yeah I want to fish Seneca but currently my boat is docked at Keuka. Was wondering if anyone had any insight into catching other than lakers there. I agree they do seem to have taken over.

    Has anybody had any success fishing for browns, rainbows or salmon on keuka? I've been fishing there for a long time and can only seem to catch lakers no matter what I try. I fish mostly between bluff point/marlena point area. Any advice would be much appreciated.
