Launched at Deans and fished South of Sheldrake this morning. We had to deal with the weeds all day but we put some nice fish in the boat. We didnt get on any big Lakers today all of are fish were 6 to 8lbs. We put 15 Lakers in the boat and one nice Rainbow that went 6.14 lbs. Mostly a flasher and fly bite today with two or three on spoons and cranks.

Good to hear the report. My boat's kicker will be installed and ready by Tuesday, so we're hoping to get out for the first time this week. Is there something about the area betweeen Deans cove and Sheldrake that keeps the fish away in the summer? I never see boats trolling that section.

Hi Greg, As the Summer goes on the fish move South of Sheldrake. You will still find Lakers up North around Deans but not as many big fish. Summer was a long time coming this year so they took longer geting South but they are down even past Taughanock now. It is all due to water temps, bait movement, and the need to get to spawning locations.
