Could be tough sunday too looks like its gunna be overcast and possibly rainy...

John your making me nervous over there pre fishing its gunna come down to the wire between us sunday! Good luck and tight lines!

Are any of the bags slotted?

Name those tourney dates! Ill be there old school or new school. As individual tourneys or a mini series. For bragging rights or money! Sounds like a great time to show everyones versatility on these lakes!

But if using braid follow the same rules. The only time tighter settings are fine is using mono because of the stretch in the line. When i was using mono for dipsys i prefered a tighter drag

I prefer a twilly tip rod and i believe you would find the line and tips or if you decided to just get a new pre setup okuma combo at field and stream, catherine valley outfitters or hills valleys and streams.

Yeah thats something that makes a big difference. I use 12lb seaguar red label florocarbon for spoon dipsys and although i shouldnt say it... not a break off at all this year with it and a big thing i make sure of is to make sure to not let rods with leaders or your spool of line sit oit in the sun or heat during storage. It weakens any line and will cause break offs. That is something that is often over looked but will keep your line strength top notch for those spunky salmon and rainbows. And always keep a fairly lose drag on a wire dipsy, i always let my dipsys creep out to depth on a light drag in the holder then just reach up and tighten it until it just occasionally clicks.Also you want the dipsy set tight enough so that if your boat is rocking in waves it wont trip but a slight jerk of the rod will pop it.

What kind of 12lb are you using and was it on a spoon or flasher fly?

Seagaur floro 10-15lb for spoons on finger lakes

Vanish line= vanished fish and lure try seagaur 12lb

Guess they found em

Oops Double post.

Also dont be afraid to just ditch the dodger and run a spoon on the deep rigger you'll still get lakers but thata where my better landlocks have been hanging. Purple is a good color and that way you can put a slide cheater on that too (Your 2 rods will contain 4 lures) and you will be able to tolerate higher speeds better than using a dodger

That sounds like a solid set up. Maybe bump speed up to 2.2-2.4 and bring high rigger up between 50 and 55ft with a spoon with a slide cheater and use the dodger and a peanut or spin and glow on the deep rigger. Dont be afraid to work in shallow til your deep rigger bounces bottom or out deeper. If you think your in to shallow or to DEEP of water your probably not you will pick up lakers on the deeper rigger and bows and landlocks on the high rigger this way

Always wondered if there was a place on the lake to grab a cold one in that area! Nice day of fishing

X3 on fall derby

Well i have a 9.9 yamaha on my 14ft and can get as slow as 1.3-1.5 with 2 riggers in the water so im sure you could with an 18. If not use a bag or a bucket

Absolutely awesome boat will make someone an awesome ride or charter boat!

Was a great day for the bows we landed 5 aswell as a 6lb landlock. What a day! Nice job

Looking for a cannon tab lock mount by tomorrow (7/16) in the horseheads area

Seems to be the story on alot of cayuga derbys no real tanks but plenty of decent fish. Still my favorite finger lake!

How can a sail boat just appear? Take your eyes off the fish finder!

How does a trolling boat going 2-3mph just appear to a sail boater?

Well i think i have about 40 years for that lol but thanks anyway

Thank you thats what i was hoping to hear

Can anyone give me info on the cost and location of the oak orchard ramp? Thinking about heading up Saturday. Thanks in advance
