Saturday May 17th - Rochester report


Recommended Posts

Fished this morning from 5:30 AM to 9 AM - had to pull out at 9, b/c my brother-in-law got seasick...

Set up in front of the river and fished a NW troll to the power plant and then we headed north. Started in 70 fow and ended up in 120 fow.

Went 10 for 11 --- 2 small kings (7 and 10#), 2 steelies, 2 coho, and 4 skippers. At one point we had a triple.

The best bite was on a black silver streak SS and NK28 spoon, but we also had hits on an orange crush, 42 second, 5 of diamonds, glow frog (white back), and an NBK. Most hits were on leadcore (3,5 and a ten color), but only one rigger bite. Speed 2.4-2.6 at the ball...

I would like to offer a special thanks to Bruce Bolger (aka Throbbin Rod). I met him yesterday at Mayer's and he gave me a ton of pointers - especially advice on fishing in front of Russell station. It's great when fellow fisherman will share their expertiece with others. Thanks again Bruce!!!!
