  1. No Kings in Seneca! But it sure would be cool if they put some in! There is an abundance of bait in Seneca right now!
  2. Thank you Andy That is my dock and boat lift on Seneca Lake!
  3. Headed at to 120 just checking so to speak, good screens for fish, no bait. Several boats working that depth. Out to 160 and set up, not as many fish but some small bait pods. Not a perfect setup with the north wind but headed north into it. 200 feet had more fish, same type of bait pods. So I few north to south trolls 225 to 190 produced three kings, one nice one, one small and one medium. Fish seemed to be down 85 to 95 in low to mid 50 degree water, no bites when I dropped stuff down in the mid forty water which was 110ish. No shortage of bait or fish and I think if it was a bit less choppy , i was solo, I could have got a few more. Best of luck, on to bow hunting prep! 24.2 male, two ugly eel scares
  4. Great question on flipping! and to add another What is today’s big blow going to tomorrow’s water temps?
  5. Thank you for posting the temperature and depth information! and saving me about $100 in fuel
  6. Replicas are a bit more money but you will be glad you did it in the long haul
  7. Nice report! looks like the lake was way calmer than what the wave report predicted, again!
  8. Great job! love the “Shelly Shack” picture
  9. I think you would really get a lot from the Salmon Fishing School at the Greater Niagara Fishing! I was doing ok with catch rates etc , signed up for the “school” and learned a ton. It was a great deal, great guys and the show was really good too! i still use my notes etc that I took that day!
  10. Boat is still available, includes dry storage at Sodus Point TIL Labor Day this year! The boat catches fish!0
  11. I will post a picture of Bees wax stuff as soon as I go up again, it’s on my boat and i can’t remember what it’s called
  12. Hillside, great post and great pictures! congrats to you both, IMO it’s the crazy stuff that goes on that makes the better memories! We had a bit of a struggle with the netting yesterday too, but I’ll stop there because it was me!
  13. Thanks to All! Very entertaining and exciting fish fight! The fleas were there but the nasty little bugs were brutal! i have been treating my lines with this stuff made from bees wax, it really helps with the fleas. comes in a jar like a honey jar, sold as a lubricant for guns, Reels etc A guy told me to use it for fleas and it works!
  14. Beautiful morning, headed right out to 200’ Temp break was obvious so drop both riggers, one 85 down other one 95. Got one dispsy set and rigger #1 goes..... Hang on a minute, my daughter is with me today trying to get her first King, so the rigger fires and she says, I think we might have one over there! The drag is screaming, I set dipsy rod down and grab the rod, check drag, and hand it to her, tell her good luck! About 45 minutes later we get the fish on board, 40”, 24 “ girth and the head is 18” right t the gill line. Big Female! We ended up hooking 7, landed 6, a couple of other mediums others were little. Its like shooting your biggest buck ever the first time you go hunting, then what! Good Luck
  15. Last fall when preparing to bring my boat home from Lake O I had a trailer problem that needed welding. I posted a request for help on LOU and shortly got a reply from Hank at L&M Marine recommending Eagle Welding. I ever talked to Hank but took his advice and it really went great! Two weeks ago I had a trim up failure coming out at the launch, not fun, but I got it trailerable. I sent a message to Hank, and called him direct. I am sure many of you have probably met Hank, but I had not until this week. A lot has changed over the years, when you meet people like Hank who are honest and fair it restores some of your faith in the America way! We all should be thankful to have men like Hank helping us fisherman on LOU! If you need boat help, L&M is the place!
  16. My son and I launched and the lake was perfect, slight south wind, good cloud cover and a little chop. We went right out to 190 using the Hughes Report, thanks again, from the day before. Headed north just got the second rod set and first rigger rod released that was down 95. Small king, by the time we got to 225, it was flat out crazy. We ended hooking 11 fish in about 3 hours and then it slowed, the sun came up and it was dead flat. We lost a couple but only one that would have been a nicer one, we got 4 that were good ones, including one brown. Can’t tell you what the temp was, never dropped the probe! Just fished off the Hughes Report!
  17. Thanks for posting report We were out a bit deeper, didn’t see any bait but we did catch a bunch of fish
  18. Great job! thanks for posting the report! I am locked and loaded for Sodus in the am!
