Cayuga 8/24 10lb Rainbow

[Hookedup]

Fished Cayuga out of Taughannock park from 7am till 11am. Started off hunting for the rainbows and salmon, and it didn’t take long to get on them. We put 6 salmon in the boat two of them over 5 pounds, 3 big Lakers, and 3 very nice Rainbows one of which was just over 10 lbs. Marked a lot of bait on both sides of the lake 20 to 60 down over 200 to 300+. Wire, Lead and Riggers all took fish today.

Hello Sean: Nice fish, bet it jumped all over? Was that on a rigger and fresh for you?

Nice fish! We were there yesterday and found the fishing hot as well. Our best Salmon of the year so far,and some big Lakers as well, tried to release most of the fish,brought home 3 big ones that just were not going to make it. The salmon was just short of 30",hit flasher/fly combo w/ 190' wire out over 320FOW. All our fish came from 20-70 down over 240-340. What is the best procedure for reviving fish, the smaller ones seem to do best unless they are gill hooked?

lay them on there back tilt the head back slightly get a large moulthful of lake water and blow gently through the gills ,works every time .

Robert, That fish hit on the rigger I thought I was on Ontario for a minute. It ran over two leadcore lines I thought for shure It wasnt going to make it to the boat.

Ray, is your revival procedure for real or is this another gag to see how gullible a green horn can be?
