That was cool, I’d love to feel a pike hit a fly.

I have the cable attached now and have been trailering it with 2 ratchet straps to hold it tight to the transom but the safety cable only seems to be there to allow the motor to drag on the road or hang under the boat in case it comes free from the bracket. I also have the wing nuts on the motor attached together with a piece of wire to prevent them from spinning loose enough to make the motor unsecure.

Keuka - suggestions on jigging for lake trout
greenhornet73 replied to BigBoreBrian's topic in Finger Lakes Discussion
If you don’t get any other replies, I would suggest looking at your graph and finding the steepest drop-off locations( contour lines that are closest together). I don’t fish Keuka but trolling other finger lakes I find the largest concentrations of fish along points and those step drops. White tube on a 1/2oz jig head and don’t forget lakers like to chase from the bottom so occasionally speed reel your jig from bottom up 10-15’ then stop (hold) then drop back down. -
Fair Haven 9/9

That’s rough, I was tempted to try yesterday morning but decided to hit Skaneateles instead, glad I did for many reasons. I wish they could predict the waves better, my boat doesn’t fish in 3’ers, especially by myself. -
Skaneateles isn't just for Lakers

Cleaning the fish was clearly evident of its low -fat diet. A thick, mature fish like that typically has quite a bit of dark meat along the skin side and this fish hardly had any and what was there was light pink and not dark red like alewife eating fish. Also had no fat inside the cavity like others. Im really looking forward to frying this up later. -
I lost a smaller one at the boat a couple of weeks ago but landed this one today that hit my dipsey rod spoon. It felt like the dipsey didn’t release but was feeling head shakes so I knew there was a fish on. When the dipsey planed at the surface, but still felt the weight, my heart started pounding. Measured 25”.

Happened to me twice fishing on Oneida lake, once casting and another while ice fishing. Both were cloudy days but our lines floated up out of the water when casting and our rod tips were literally buzzing both times. I could see how it could cause some static issues especially with electronics on the boat.

Thanks, I have some slide divers but my biggest isn’t a mag and only 3 3/4” dia. Not sure what the max depth would be with wire pulling a paddle. -
