Billy V Cayuga report July 28, 2012

[Billy V]

Sorry for the late report - things have been crazy round here lately.

Today was a day in which Mother Nature held all the cards. When she was in a good mood, good things happened. When she was in a bad mood, nothing happened! We headed out at 6:00am and set lines in 100 FOW. Our first hour of fishing was great - until the thunderstorms rolled through. We were on a good Laker & Atlantic bite in 100-120 FOW and once the storms hit the fish just shut off completely for us. We checked the satellite weather and decided that it looked like there was a hole in the storm that we could ride it out through. So for the next two hours we fished in a driving rain storm without a fish to show for it. But as soon as the storms passed, the fishing lit back up again. We ended our day with a very steady diet of Lakers and Atlantics to round out a full box. All things considered, it was a very productive day, especially when Mother Nature was in a good mood! We had big Lakers today with several of them pushing the 10 lb mark.

We took fish on our 225' and 250' divers on a #1 setting pulling a Green Pro Chip/Siggs Rigs Billy V Glow Ghost and a White Spinny/Sigg's Rigs White Crinkle fly. Our riggers were the hot ticket again today and our 75' and 85' rods pulling a Dreamweaver Super Slim Midnight Special and a Lazer Glow Spook took quite a few fish for us. We also took fish on our 8 and 10 color cores pulling a variety of spoons. Best down speed was 2.3-2.6mph. We had 60 degree water at 50' and 50 degree water at 60'.

Thanks guys. We've taken several really nice LL's this year. Now if we could just find some consistent brown trout action down this way! I'll be out on a scouting mission on Saturday evening looking for them in some spots we haven't been fishing much this season.
