Cayuga Ideas for Trolling Cayuga in November

[Reel Doc]

Hoping to get some fishing in this month if the weather cooperates.  Have rarely been out from late October to the end of the year.  Last couple weeks found lake trout deep in 80 out to 200 fow.  2 weeks ago 1 Rainbow, last week nothing silver and very few marks above 60 feet.  With the spawn on now is it best to fish skinny the next few weeks?  Usually launch at Deans until the lake drops in midWinter, then go to Taughannock as the boat fits under the bridge.  Anybody go out of Treman this time of year?  Interested in your thoughts.

A few hungry Lakers are already cruising the shorelines, more everyday. In my opinion the second half of November and into December are top notch laker fishing with an occasional bonus brown or rainbow. They hit hard and fight hard with the water being cold and they’re hungry after the spawn. I mainly shore cast tube jigs, blade baits, spoons, jerkbaits. You could troll spoons or sticks baits like Berkeley flicker minnow I’ve had luck with trolling the shallows try 5-20 fow around points or creek mouths

I love when lakers cruise up in like 5-10 fow. Put out my spring spread with boards and sticks and hold on

Agreed about lakers being really fun to catch in the shallows.  This weekend looks to be promising weather so will get the boards ready to go.  Thanks for the input.
