KING ME

Added note ...wow all this talk on the forum about the fishing sucks other than for lake trout???? Really???? We have fished every week since end of March and every week we have gotten SILVER fish Browns steelhead cohos 1 Atlantic and yes kings!!!! We have fished west almost every time out and done kings. As matter of fact the few times we went east we did kings there also. So all this b.s.and bad press about the lake fishery is a joke to us. The silvers are and have been here all season, the bait fish numbers and size classes look great and the fish are healthy. Can't complain about the fishery because Lake Ontario is producing great fish. And yes great fish coming from oak to I.bay every week! If people are finding it so ****ty for them ask for help, look in a new area or give up! But don't complain online and give bad press because of select few. Next and last thing- mark WOW glad we where not aloud to fish the king of the oak yesterday ....we saved a lot of people cash and egos. Yesterday we where shaking off fish BIGGER than 12 to 13 pounds! We would of cashed a check! What a joke hence why we don't post much or talk with anyone anymore!

CDs- yes there are silver fish beyond 180fow+ we have been doing fish -kings and coho and few steelhead since late April from these depths. See Last few post by reeljerks and also Great Lakes lure marker ...a few guys from the board have been out with us and had fun on silver fish. They are there, have been there just gotta put away the cowbells and work for what ya want.😀

Mark - awesome day whacking silvers yesterday as always. A lot of laughs and shaking our heads. We will work on a new rig for ya and when it comes time and narrowed down I will go with you to inspect it And of coarse rig it with all new toys and fishing goodies. But in the mean time you always have a spot on the rods with us brother

Hell ya that's what I'm saying.

Mark- I did a fast/short reply earlier- had homeowner standing around me all day lol. So I wanted to add... Only 2 or 3 people on this lake know my backgroun/past without getting into much you know I understand what your past few years have been like. That's why we have been continuously trying to get ya out on the water. The 2 days out in the water where great, not just fishing but seeing you get back into the game. Every hour I watch you get a little more comfortable and unwinding. That's what it's all about and being able to see the "reeljerk" back on the big pond was like a blast from the past. As far as the fishing goes- like riding a bike - comes back quick don't it lmao. Only thing else I'm gonna say is I'm still upset you made me grab that last wire rod King!! Lmao Glad ya got the Lake Ontario salmon fever again brother!

Mark- thank you brother. We always do well fishing together and have a great time. You know like I have said a million times boat is always open to you. All it takes is a few 450 coppers and a few 375' PLUS wire rods to make live a little better. We will definitely continue discussing plans and find a fourth man

Thanks guys

We fished out of the Port of rochester

Today Capt. Rich and myself had the pleasure of having Capt. Mike Pastore of Rodmaster charters aboard the “fired upâ€. Prior to fishing with this Lake Ontario legend I thought the name “rodmaster†was for the number of fish he catches for his clients, well there is a second reason. Neither Capt. Rich nor myself could believe this guys ability in landing fish…..the best rod guy I have ever seen. He landed mature kings in RECORD time one after another. Great guy with not only a vault of knowledge but unbelievable rod handling skills. Mike you are welcome to fish aboard the “fired up†anytime! Now for the blood bath report , ABSOLUTELY the BEST SALMON bite we have ever seen in july and we all have been doing this for over 20+ years! We left dock at 5 a.m. and headed out to our fishing grounds. Since we were not on a charter and there was no money, reputation, or pressure involved in our day we all decided to keep our work load to a minimum. Only run 6 rods – 4 riggers with 2 wires…No coppers, cores, torpedo’s or even cheaters or free sliders!!!! Well we where so wrong on not working! Starting setting rods at 5:35a.m in 150 fow . 2 riggers 55’ and 65’ down with 42 second spoons. Port down and out 73’ down with white green dot echip and twinkie meat rig. Starboard down and out 42 second spinnie/fly. Wires 210’ on 2.5 setting with white green dot spinnie/meat other 250’ on 2.5 setting with same spinny/sushi fly. All He#@ broke loose and had 9 kings in 45 minutes. We continued to work 150-200’ in a one mile area and pound on the kings till 9:30 when we called in another captain to cash in on the blood bath for his clients. During this time we moved off our waypoints for him to work area solo. We spent this time on an hour and a half sight seeing tour so Capt. Rich could show Linda an underwater island. 11:00 BACK ON our waypoints and back to the king action. Same lures just fished dropped down some in water column. Continued to catch mostly mature salmon with only a few teenagers and 1 steelhead in the mix. Watching catching Capt. Mike and linda reel in salmon all day till we pulled rods at 12:45 and headed to dock. We kept afew bleeders and matures for the smoker and for the pig roast we attended back at marina. Other than that all swimming to be caught again another day. We tallied fighting over 40 kings and 1 steelhead in 6 hours we spent actually fishing. The fishing was incredible to say the least but so was the entire day and experience. All four of us had none stop ball breaking and laughter the entire day. By far a day I will never forget the rest of my life. Thank you Capt. Mike, Linda and Capt. Rich.

Thanks for heads up.
