Keuka Lake 6/14/12 or "5 fish for Frank"

[ioiosoiwork]

After being humbled by last weeks outing at Seneca, Frank & I decided to return to our "incubator" lake, Keuka.We launched out of the state park by 7AM & headed for our "sure thing" West side setting up on the way over at our usual 150' back, #2 setting on our wire rods, & 50' down on our down riggers...........absolutely NOTHING showing up on the Lowrance. After explaining to Frank that the guys on LOU said that some days the East side is better & motoring back over there..............& absolutely NOTHING showing up on the Lowrance again, AND experiencing FLEAS for the first time UGH ! , I convinced Frank to motor out to the center, & between listening to Frank insistently WHINE about NO fish & constantly questioning and trying to adjust the fish finder (turns out "Frank" who fished the lake that prior weekend ALL DAY was marking fish EVERYWHERE, was running his fish finder in "simulator mode" ) I saw just the littlest of "bumps" at the bottom of the fish finder @ 158' wire rods went back 450', down riggers @ 150' & we collected 5 lakers out of 9 on of course the Reel Hooked Up fly with a glow frog Spin Doctor(note the freshly painted Dipsey, Sean Brown ) & on a silver Michigan Stinger grease trap style rig with a clear UV Big Weenie mini cut bait head rigged with a smelt colored Berkley Gulp 4" Shaky Shad & also a chartreuse Michigan Stinger grease trap style rig with a glow frog Big Weenie mini cut bait head, also, with a smelt colored Berkley Gulp 4" Shaky Shad.We were off the lake by 11:30
