I hunted yesterday. North end not viable. South a boat with 4 guys came by. Must have put in somewhere south. We were south of union spring. Lots of shore ice. Building all day. Brutal cold.

I'm sure increase is due to about 10,000 plus boat in texas, florida, islands etc destroyed. Everything is going higher. Spreading the cost to everyone.

I ran small spoons, only 10 to 20 feet behind the weights. 1.6 to 2.0 for speed. Nnw wind made south troll to fast. Going straight into it was better. Try a variety of spoon. I did run sticks but zip. Usually pick up browns on the sticks but none. There were some fleas but not bad. I used light tackle. My spinning rods 10 lb fluro. I like to follow the bottom contour with my deeper weight. I keep it about 5 to 10 feet above. Marked lots of bait. With arcs all near. Good luck.

Fished Cayuga at long point sp. South. I stayed in at 100 to 120. Riggers at 60 70 85. All spoons, green frog was killer. 3 rainbows, one 7.0 lb other 3 and 3.5. Seven Lakers most 2.5 lbs, but one 8lbs. Funny thing the rainbow were in the areas of the most floating weed debris.  The Lakers were most active about 5:30 pm. Wonderful evening. 

I was checking the weather for tomorrow. 1 ft building to 6 ft. By 2 pm. I can't get a break. I thought it was going to be calm.

It's a #$@& show. I fish weekdays as well. Kills me; your absolutely correct. 26 ft boat 5 guys in 40 ft close. Boards out 100 ft each side, 15 rods going. Zigzaging. Etc. Then you see the same at the launch. No fish.
But bottom line we all love fishing, love the outdoors. It's OK we will live through another year.

So last year I hook a fish in about 30 feet of water. I'm alone and I stop the boat and fight it. Guy pull up ask if I need help to net. No, but thank you! Next guy goes by screaming I'm in the way. Sorry got a fish on. Big lake. 230 long 60 wide.

Yes, it's way big enough. Trouble is now combat trolling starts. And that boat coming at you, to your left and right and the one coming up in you lures. They want your spot!! Crazy place.

Yes. I try to hit the lake anytime I see it flat. I use the Oswego harbor cam as a reference.

I use the national weather service out of Buffalo for the Sodus bay to Mexico report. Looks to lay down a day or two then back up. September is up and down. Tough for guys like me in 16 ft boats.
