2017 Seneca Lake 333 Tournament


Recommended Posts

It was definitely a tough day. We fished from 100 to 30 with all of it being a terrible screen. We went 7-10 with most fish coming on the cores over 30-50 fow. We got lucky and finally found a few active fish late morning with a mixed bag of Lakers, rainbows and landlocks. Just glad we were able to get o e registered in the 333.20170513_163931.jpg Great day on the water regardless!

We dialed in to the shallow bite, but gave it up too quickly. Looking for a big laker we should have stayed on task...

Nice fish were weighed in.. Gonna have to be on your game if you want to fish Seneca.. Good luck to all fishing the NLTD! Warmer weather will be a blessing.

I know this may be a different way of looking at the derby but this may be the derby that really sorts out the hardcore fishermen.... a real case study in perseverence. It could  be one to make folks start  "thinking out of the box". Sometimes when things don't come  easy they become more valued.  The conditions seemed very much like this back in the mid to late 1970's when it was 6-7 hrs between fish. The people that didn't give up during that period learned patience and fished using methods that were previously out of their comfort zone....just something to think about:lol: For some of us this is deja vu all over again:) One of the best parts of the derby is that some little kid with a Zebco fishing off a dock somewhere on the lake may catch the winner.....no matter how good you may be lady luck is still a factor out there as well as "timing".

The days that are a blood bath, you learn nothing (other than holy crap fishing is exercise).  The days that are a grind, you learn from it. Those blood bath days are fun but they do not help improve you as a fishermen.
