We use pretty much the same type of sticks that we would for trolling, larger ones that are heavy enough to cast a ways. As for jigs I've experimented with lots of different types, hair jigs, "flukes" paddle tails, tubes etc.  Usually 1/8-1/2 oz.

casting jigs and stickbaits in shallow, 5-20 FOW.  As someone else posted earlier, due to the amount of debris in the water, trolling would have been a real headache.

Cayuga 4/21

Put in at Myers and headed south until it got too muddy then back up West side. Despite the loads of debris and rain storm we had a pretty good day.  Boated 5 LLs and 2 browns as well as two large pike which was a surprise.  

I caught this guy last fall on Cayuga when my rapalla bumped the bottom.  I figured it was weeds, quite a surprise.  Maybe I should have kept him for dinner...

It should be good to go, I put in last weekend and there was just a small ice Berg in the Eastern most ramp, the other one was completely open.  There was a decent amount of debris out there from all the rain, good luck...

Added more/better pictures, the cheapest I've seen this motor is 899 from gander mountain, that's without batteries/chargers... Make an offer.

Minn Kota power drive v2 ipilot

Just upgraded to a larger motor, this is the 12v 54" shaft 55lb thrust powerdrive v2 with ipilot.  Comes with 2 deep cycle batteries (1 Napa and 1 Walmart) both around 1 year old and 2 battery minder chargers/maintainers.  Everything works great, we have been using the motor up until a few weeks ago when we got new one.

Going to post on Craigslist in a few days, giving LOU members a head start...

St. Croix Triumph 7' MD hvy fast casting rod. Used one season, cork grips are a little dirty from use but otherwise in perfect shape. Paid $90 asking $50.

Bass Pro, pro qualifier baitcast reel, less than 2 years old used only 10 times at most, perfect condition. 7.1:1 ratio and spooled with brand new fireline crystal. Paid $99 asking $50. This is a great reel but I don't like the fast retrieve rate as much as I thought I would.

Here's a pic of the entry form, if I have time I'll post a scanned version later for folks to print... Good luck to everyone.

Myers is open and free of debris as well as of yesterday...

I have a nice Bass Pro Shops pro qualifier 7.1:1 reel paired with a St. Croix premier rod 7' medium heavy. Both are just over a year old and in great shape. Paid a little over $200 for the pair asking $125 pics of rod uploaded soon, located in Ithaca.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure kueka lakers are all wild versus stocked which may attribute to the taste difference, just a thought. I have also caught and observed lake trout in odd depths throughout the year...

We were out jigging from 6:30-12:00 today. Marked a lot on the west shore between taughannock and crowbar. Getting them to bite was another story... Did any one else notice VERY strong currents in the lake today? Our ipilot kept us in place but casting 50' in front of the boat, our 1oz jigs were ending up 20' behind the boat before hitting bottom in 80-90 FOW. I've never experienced this before, slight currents yes but nothing like that. Anybody know what would cause that?

Posting this for my dad, bought a new boat, have to sell the old one...
