  1. I have the exact set up as you. Im out of rochester so im not sure depths, but here I start in 110, drop the riggers to 65 and 70 with spoons or FF and start NE toward deeper water looking for marks or bait. Fish the marks. Once riggers set i put dipseys back 175 and 220 and i use meat rigs every day without exception...they are my best producers. 10 color and copper out next. Both have glow spoons. I don't slam them like the pros out in 300 feet, but I do well enough to be busy.
  2. what made this sonar trace? Its baffling.
  3. 90 feet, cowbells and whirlygigs keep my kids occupied
  4. 110 feet bait everywhere. Marks at 30, 50 and 80 feet. Water was 49 at 75. Trolled east at 630 and by 700 had a double. Lost one at the boat and landed the other. 20 pounder meets the feezer, same size swam away. Both on Meat rigs back 220. Then the 300 copper with green jeans goes nuts 10 minutes later. I've got 2 rods on the deck, a fish bleeding all over the place and a screaming 300 copper. Landed her, 22 pounds..released. 20 minutes later My son hooks into the biggest lake trout I've see in my life and we lose it at the boat. That thing was a freakin tank. Turn around to head west, meat rig takes off and landed a steelhead...the one i posted with the gill lice. Now its 915 and we head home...I'm beat...one hell of a morning.
  5. caught some chrome in 150 on meat 220 back. One had thus garbage in its gills...what's going on
  6. There are always lake chickens...not very exciting, but its a tight line
  7. He hasn't had any for weeks. I picked up the last 2 packages I could find in sodus at bay Bridge tackle this afternoon
  8. Out east of Ibay 49F was 60 over 120. Went in and out of 120 to 140. Had 2 screamers on green atomic meat rigs back 150 and 125. Lost both when the line counter was 232...i think I have a kink in the steel braid...seems suspicipus. green jeans boated a couple more on 300 copper. Green FF took a juvenille.
  9. How deep water and how deep were the fish? Going out tomorrow morning.
  10. 120 feet...holy crap. Bait everywhere, marks all over the place from 20 ft to 100 ft. Carbon 14, raspberry carbon were on fire. 2 off meat 200 back. And the best of all...my sons first ever Atlantic on 300 copper with raspberry shadow.
  11. Hurlburt isnt a common last name...and family in Watertown or Ottawa?
  12. I do ok out here anywhere from 150 out to 200 looking for 49F. I dont have the days you guys have west of here when fishing the same temp/depth. Makes me think the water here just isnt as fish friendly. I'm gonna have to take the drive out there one of these days and see for myself.
  13. So if they are concentrated at a particular depth in one area, would it be the same in similar spots? Like if you are smashing them at 130 off Braddocks, would it be similar for me out of Bear Creek? Is there something other than temp they key in on? From what I've been reading, seems west of Rochester is better than out in wayne county...or have I just not figured them out yet?
  14. I had no luck with 300 copper. I had all kinds on it and nothin. Green meet rigs, green FF, NBK spoon on dipsy and triggers. One magnificent rainbow took a koho killer down 30...wrapped itself on rigger cable...now time to by a new spoon. A great morning full of action.
  15. We went 2 for 6 on meat. One screamer took me out to 420 feet, got him back to 200 then pop... Lost a nice steelhead at the boat and had 3 other knock offs from 6am to 10 am
  16. Green green and green dipsey put 150 over 190. Meat and FF
