    Got out for the first time this year finally, went out of Ibay started at 6:30 out in front in 25 fow. when I was putting the first line out a king grabbed it before I got it clipped to downrigger. Got that one in probably 7 lber for the first of the year. After that it was actually kinda slow for a bit, got all the rods set picked a few more up. Then about 8:30 had some fast action more kings and a brown. 9:30 it shut right off an didn't get another bite, pulled lines at 10:30 finished with 7 kings, 1 brown, 1 Laker nothing bigger then 9 lbs. spoons and one on a flasher/fake meat rig. 30-40 fow was best action for us, never tried shallow for browns. enough of king action to stay a little deeper. Decent weather rest of week, maybe get out again!

    There are a few big pike around there. But there not many, if you get one thats good if you get two your lucky. I would say the best is more towards the west shore, kinda west/center of lake. At weedy places towards weed edges. 10-12 ft maybe. Good luck

    It is froze out maybe .25 mile on Penn Yan end. I dont know how thick it is, nobody was out there yet. Also the south wind could break some of that up today. This weekend looks like it could do some freezing.

    As far as I know there isn't any ice there to speak of yet. The water should be cooled down but we need some colder calm weather for it to get started.

    Well I fished the river for the first time. We rented a house on the river along the american narrows with a dock, so I could dock our boat right by the house which was nice. Sure is different fishing a river than a lake one moment your in 40 fow the next your in 120+! As far as catching fish we struck out on walleye which didn't really surprise me. Did end up getting a handful of fish with a few nice smallmouth. It was a fun experience an hopefully we can make it an anual thing.

    Finally got out for kings, I hadn't been out since April. Went out with some friends ,lines in at 6:30 steady action till 11:00 all kings an 1 steelhead. Lots of shakers and a few matures. Best water was 160-180 for us. All spoon bite, green an black. 40-80 down. Temperture seemed to change quite a bit, it got warmer as we got farther west. My fish finder was all clouded up today could'nt even see down rigger lines till later in day when we got shallower it cleared up. Never had that happen before. Thanks to the fishhawk we were able to see what depth to fish.

    These dots are the 26 line to the 30 line, an shows 4.5 mile, so like was said earlier its a little over a mile per number.

    As I've worked for a logger already and logged my own woods and sawed high quality funiture grade lumber over the years I must say When I hunt public land and see these high quality hardwood trees that are mature and ready to be logged but are left there to rot is a shame. The revenue that could be had if these woods were logged and at the same time it would improve deer habitat. And yes if its managed right a good logger will cut down bad trees.

    Thanks for the report an good luck on the salmon fishing! I'm hoping to get out after browns again this week.

    What do you think of running a kicker motor instead of the big motor for shallow water fishing? Do you think the smaller motor would scare less fish? I have a kicker motor I just hav'nt put on the boat yet.

    Nice going! After hammering them on Monday we struggled out of Ibay today, only bringing one brown to the boat. Fished 9:00-1:00

    No I never tried the divers of a planer board. I wouldnt be surprised if you could get a # 1 chinook of a planer board. We had 12 ft leaders of the divers. Divers out 15 to 25 ft was working for us.
