Olcott bite.

[fishin2]

Seems a bit off this year. Couple kings and steelhead. Wonder if water is not turned over enough. New to area. Still a learning curve. Any pointers appreciated. Thanks all.

I am wondering if we may have caught them last year. Cant catch them twice if they go in the box. Seems to be very inconsistent everywhere.

Don't really know what I'm doing either but grinding out of sodus this week. Some trips a few, some skunked.

Well, ended salmon season in Olcott.. 5 fish one day, 2 matures,2youngsters and a steelie and day 2, a mature, a youngin, 3 yr old, and a nice steelhead.. Seems the bait is nill in the area.. Only marked a few bait balls both days.. Oh well, thats why its called vacation, anything goes !! Wont give up, looks like lake needs to turn over to get things goin.. Good fishin all, will keep an eye out, just a 5 hr drive !!

I have switched ports the Point breeze (the Oak).  I've had much better success there over Olcott the last 2 years

Out now, haven’t moved a rod , some bait and marks occasionally

Fished three hours this morning and was skunked. Tried for kings for an hour and noticed the fleet struggling and then all leave for deep water so went in close for browns for two hours. Never had a sniff. What a difference a year makes. Olcott has had an “off” year.

Around this time of year? Any good reasonable places to stay in that area? That’s east of Olcott correct.

We didn’t mark the bait. Gotta have food or no go. Need the eco system to align!!

When is the best time of the year to come to Olcott?

 

I was there May 5th (Cinco DE 'Mayo) and July 4th.  Both were not good.

You picked good times!  Off year.

What are the temps looks like??

I was running a boat with zero electronics but a fellow fisherman told me that the thermocline was at 72-78’
