My son’s girlfriend’s father from Texas came up to for work and asked if I could take him salmon fishing for his 1st time on Lake Ontario. We left the river at 5:30 and headed offshore. Of course Windfinder and National weather service called for light winds and less than 1’. I was greated with rough water in the river so I knew it was going to be a bumpy ride. He landed 8 and lost 2. 7 kings and 1 bow. He unfortunately lost the biggest but not bad for his 1st time salmon fishing. We pulled lines at 11:30. He even kept a fish to take back to Texas. Best for me was carbon hulk on probe rigger down 75 took multiple fish early. Bow hit white SD/hammer fly on dipsey out 250. Once sun came up I switched to silver backs on green jeans and bad toad and they took multiple fish and biggest on rigger down 8O and 60. 300’ steel never fired and neither did meat rig on 275 dipsey. Took him to a fire dept race last night that we only have here in WNY and Long Island and he flew back to Texas today with his salmon. Thanks to Matt French from Class A Sportfishing for giving me the intel and waypoint to start. I had to pleasure to work with Matt at the end of his career. Great guy!
