Still pulling bottom bouncers in 30-35 ft. Marking fish suspended too, but long lines pick up a lot of trash and where I am there is a lot of shallow water pleasure boat traffic and that sure produces lots of ripped up weeds from the weekend.

 

Last night finally got my first 30 incher here.  Took a long time to get her out of the net, no camera handy, and released. Brought home a limit 27, 22 and 21.

 

Definitely best night yet!

Got a chance to share a trip last night with Kevin Legg. Enjoyed getting to meet the guy who was so willing to share a lifetime's knowledge with a stranger new to the area. He's a class act and a real gentleman!

We went 5 for 6 in my boat. Best around 25". 1.2 to 1.5 SOG most of the time, 32 FOW, Olive glow thunderstick again.

THANKS AGAIN KEVIN!

Was great meeting Prof T. I didn't realize he and his dad were pike legends I had followed from articles read many years ago. He was kind enough to not mention he out fished me 4 to 2 and that I lost one just behind the boat or we would have both limited out. Evidently he is a quick study and has added his own twist to the bottom bouncing technique. I've been fortunate to meet some great people from friendships I have made on this forum! I'm sure Prof T and I will share many times on the water! Walleyes take notice!

I have fish Quinte in spring and fall and up by Kingston late summer but it's easy to stay home this time of year.

I feel the same way. It's hard to leave good ground when it's right around the corner. I was talking more of ivy Lea area in the summer.

I don't even though I have Nexus card, it is still a hassle to call in. I catch all I need within a mile or so of A Bay on US side.

[Roybee]

That's how I feel. It's a long way to go around the island. I have some friends that fish it and do well. I put my gopro down there and there are tons of them.

Great jobs guys.

I love reading your reports. Someday I will venture over there and try to catch some of those river eyes. We have a camp on Millsite so it is a short trip. I am pretty spoiled with these Oneida walleyes though!

Reeleyz,

Worked in Rome for 34 years and put a boat in Oneida Lake for the first time in 81. Many phenomenal memories there. Just starting a new chapter here.

A 30" walleye is fantastic. Been following your posts for a while. I fish the Rockport area of the River regularly and have picked up a few walleye by chance fishing for bass over the past couple years.  Prior to this I never caught one in the River since I started fishing there in 1980.  I'd like to target them more and would like to ask your technique and when you fish (after dark?).  Not looking for any secrets just a way to get started.

Thanks.

Steve
