    It seems like the fishing is good everywhere so everyone decides to go hush hush on reports. It’s frustrating because the only way this great fishery continues is by getting more and more people involved. Started at 5:30am in 80 fow. Bait scattered with fish. Started with riggers and dipsy divers. No hits. 7:00 first hit in 140 fow on a mag dipsey out 167 approx. 75-80 feet down. Flasher w attomick stud. Next hit came at 10:00 on a green jeans flasher and meat in 150fow. First fish landed at 11:00am on a rigger with a dragon slayer flasher w stud meat rig. 11:10 another. 11:20 another. All the same flasher. All three fish were over 18lbs. One was 23lbs. All three were in 170-180 fow and 81 feet down. Meat is the ticket right now. I hope this helps just one person because no one wants to give any info. It’s very disappointing.

    Fishing Sodus with my old man looking to see if anyone’s fished out of there recently. Still picking browns in 25-35fow? Kings around deeper? Thanks!

    Great fish! Any weight on the spoons off of planers? How far back were they liking it? Thanks!!

    I’m heading to Sodus next weekend for my new to me boats maiden voyage! Care to share fow and rigger depths? Thank you!

    How deep were you? And how far down on the riggers? Awesome job!

    First trip out for the year. Started a new job and have been working some insane hours. Shot out of the chute at 5:30am and set up shot in 150 fow with an awesome screen. Sent the fishhawk down and found that temp got pushed down. It was 51 down 108 in 150fow. Trolled north out to 250 with a nice screen but no takers. Lake started to get a little chop going out deep so I picked up shop and headed in to 180fow. Set 4 riggers down to 77, 87, 97, and 107. Took a shot on the 77 rigger instantly. Had on a UV Nbk spoon. About 15 minutes later at 8:15 am I hooked up to a 24lb king in 178fow. Down 108 feet. Didn’t know it was hooked until it saw the boat. Fish darted under the boat and got wrapped in 2 rigger wires. I don’t know how we boated that fish but we did. Trolled around until 11am and then headed in. Good thing we did because around 1145 one of the nastiest thunder storms I have ever seen rolled through. Over all I had a pretty screen all day but not many takers. The king I caught has around 10 baitfish in his stomach that were all 5-8 inches.

    Brighter colors but really anything with just a little color. It doesn’t have to be neon or anything... My bread and butter spoon is a black wiggle. You can catch anything that swims on that spoon. Meat may work but I wouldn’t bother if your goal is to catch steelhead. Speed somewhat matters. Anywhere from 2.4-3.0 for me. Temp doesn’t matter much as they stay in the upper 30% of the water column. Fish deeper water for them. 200fow or more. Fish anywhere from 30 to 75 down for steelhead.

    I can give you the exact spoons. Standard size black wiggle stinger and standard size blue dolphin. Speed on top was 2.6 below was 2.4.

    All was quiet on the radio with everyone gearing up for the Pro Am this weekend. I’m sure they were all bummed to find temp down well over 120. Decided to screw the Kings and just run some steelhead lines. From 200-250 fow down 45-85 you can smash steelhead all day long. We had hit after hit. Probably 15-20 hits within an hour. A lot of fun having a 30 inch steelhead jumping a few feet out of the water!

    Caught both fish from 150 to 165 fow.

    Shakedown trip. First rigger down at 645. First strike at 710 54 down on a black wiggle standard size spoon. Next bite came 80 down on a flasher/fly combo at 745. Went 2 for 2 off the water by 8 because I had somewhere to be. Temp was down 55. Overall a fun on and off the water day.
