cinnamon fish

Thanks for the info, appreciate it. I'll definetly get in touch with them. Looking fwd to it!

Just wondering what's the best way to get the sign up sheet and entry fee to Corey or Dylan? By mail? When's the deadline for entering?

Any idea what the dry weight of this boat is? w/out the motor.

A cold brewski & bbq on a summer afternoon does sound pretty great.

Hoping to enter this one. Just curious, why is the weigh-in so early in the day? Especially on a one day derby. Not very much time to fish, factoring in pulling the boat out, driving over.

Thanks for the kind words, Sk8man. Great folks/community on this forum, and I've learned a lot on here. Giving thanks for that! Hope to meet some of you guys around one of the derbies or out on one of the lakes sometime. I'm considering joining the FLTA maybe next year, if it looks like my schedule will allow me to fish enough tournaments. After two full days on the lake, the brain is already thinking about the next run and ready to freshen up the tackle. Mike / cinnamon fish

I was able to expand a bit further north than usual, for me, this weekend for the SA Derby and trolled today north from T-Falls up to Sheldrake and back. Typically, I only go about half that far north but I was glad I did. Stayed on the west side, did a lot of hours but with fairly steady action. 2 days, 28 fish. Grand slam Sat (pic), best fish 7 lb 10 oz laker (pic), 4 lb 13 oz brown, 4 lb 12 oz LL, 3 lb 1oz rainbow. Only made it on the board for a very brief moment, but that was a fun first for me anyway. Sun, fish got a little heavier, though not heavy enough, 8 lb 14 oz laker (pic), 6 lb 4 oz LL (pic, caught near sheldrake), 3 lb 14 oz brown (pic), a bunch of smaller fish & 8 lakers 3-6 lb. The derby winners landed some truly impressive fish. Wow.

Nice going! It's really exciting seeing all 4 species in one day! I had that, in awe of mother nature feeling, also getting a grand slam yesterday fishing the derby. Came across 3 out 4 today.

Wow, 12-12 salmon is really incredible!! And the brown and lakers too, wow. Big fish out there for sure! Best I could land was an 8-14 laker and 6-4 LL. All in all did 28 fish for the weekend, great variety and had a blast. Congrats to the winners, great time!

Picked up an 8-14 laker around 9 AM. 5 smaller ones, couple small LL Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Good luck to all! Some great fish being caught, ran across a nice variety today and had a 7-10 laker and a 4-13 brown on the board this afternoon for a mere 45 minutes, lol. Also got a 4-12 LL, 3-1 rainbow, and 10 smaller fish, all varieties. Hope to run into something bigger tomorrow. Cheers.

Nice LL. I got out this morning 7am-11am, picked up 6 lakers, biggest 7 pounds. I hooked into something much bigger around 9:30am and fought it for at least 20 minutes. Peeled just about all of my line off at least three times, followed it with the boat, definitely felt like the strongest fish I've ever hooked into on the lake. Like a freight train, and when I finally started slowly gaining a fair amount, it pulled the hook. Wish I had at least gotten a look at it just to know what it was. Didn't jump but seemed too fast to be a big laker, but I could be wrong. Maybe a big brown. Or giant LL or giant rainbow that just didn't jump. Felt really big, extremely strong that's all I know.

The storms over the past couple of days brought a lot of floating logs out into the lake, and there's some garbage floating likely from careless folks partying out there. I fished Saturday evening for just a couple of hours without any strikes. Too much boat traffic I thought. Went back out 545am today for a few hours, started very slow first couple hrs. without any strikes in the area I've been doing very well in over the past couple of weeks, Then headed north near the boy scout camp and landed 5 LLs, two biggest were 4.2 pounds and 4 pounds, 2 others in the 2 pound range, and one dink. The high water and all the holiday boat traffic definitely moved the fish around and I didn't run into any fish besides salmon today. Happy though to keep getting beautiful silvers. I'm curious how other folks did out there today.

That's some great action. Good luck out there. Looks like the rain is just letting up now. I see another t-storm coming in around noon. Stay safe. I plan to fish this evening before the fireworks, maybe tomorrow morning too.

Hey guys, thanks. Suttontroller94, sounds like you had a great flta tourney anyway. Nice work. I hope to get involved with some of those next year. Gonna try to fish at least a couple of derbies this season... SA Derby next weekend, hopefully the Tom Margeit Memorial Derby Aug 5, and usually do the B&B derbies. And, just curious, is anyone entering this one... http://www.nysiceproam.com/SummerClassic/Home.html? I'm tempted, although the only salmonids that can win anything are lakers and browns. Hopefully that will change in the future. It's statewide, but hey I bet some finger lakes fish could win or place.
