Deepest I fished this year was 250' Stan, but I know for certain that YT went deeper than that. Lots of Lake MI guys are regularly fishing 400' down nowadays.

I got word from a couple of friends of mine in MI that this is the will be the new World Record brown trout. It was caught yesterday out of the Manistee river and weighed 41.45 lbs. It is already confirmed to be the new Michigan State record, smashing the old record by 4 lbs. Maybe now Jerry can finally convince YT that brown trout are fun to catch! LOL

Way to go Greg! Keep at it and soon you'll be stacking 'em up like cord wood!

If I was planning on another Cayuga Lake summer I'd be in, but we plan to be back up on Lake Ontario again next year. If anyone needs an extra deck hand on their boat keep me in mind!

Yeah I set the riggers up and never got a chance to clean them. Within seconds of getting the wires set up the first one fired and it was pretty much non-stop with them for the 45 mins. or so that we trolled.

Last night I asked my boys what they wanted to do on their last night of summer vacation and they said that they wanted to go trolling with Mom & Dad. Cool! So after dinner we went down to the lake and trolled for about an hour in front of Taughannock. We found lots of bait & hooks in 275-350 FOW and boated a few lakers and lost a couple more. We didn't have a bite on our riggers, but after pulling lines at 7:30pm I found that all of them had weeds on them, so that explains why. Our Walker Deeper Divers out 250 & 275 on #2 settings took all of our fish. They were pulling a white double crush glow Spin Dr./Glow Ghost Sigg's Rigs fly and a green double crush glow Spin Dr./Sigg's Rigs Green Hypnotist fly. We didn't have a bite below 2.3mph on our Depth Raider, so they wanted it fairly fast last night. My wife even got in on the action: William and Ben each landed a pretty healthy Laker and were all smiles at the end of the night. William's Laker was pretty fat and put up a real good fight (for a Laker ). We put all of them back so that someone else can enjoy catching them too.

Great fish RR!

Great fish Eric. Way to go Ethan!!

Way to go guys. Sure do wish I could've been out there with you.

Thanks guys. We used to fish Cayuga a LOT back probably 10 years ago or so, but I'd forgotten most of what I knew about the rhythm of the lake since we moved to Lake O. Thanks to Rusty Rat, Splitshot115, Mower, Hookedup and a some others we got back into the swing of things down here pretty quickly this summer. If all goes as planned we'll be back on the Big Lake again next year, so we hope to enjoy a few more quality trips like this one down here this year before we head North again.

Greg, PM Me if you have specific questions, I'll be happy to answer them. RJ, That one LL was pushing 7 lbs. We were pretty stoked to see it in the net!

There were a few weeds around, but not the huge floating weed beds that have been around lately. Fleas were non-existent.

Last night Jay, Bill, & I headed out for a short trip on Cayuga. We ran over to Taughannock and set up in 300 FOW and found lots of bait & hooks from 50-120' down. We only fished for a couple of hours, but we had action the entire time we were out, including two doubles. Best set-ups for us were a white double crush glow Spin Dr/Sigg's Rigs Glow Ghost on a diver out 210' on a #2, a green double crush glow Spin Dr./Sigg's Rigs Green Hypnotist on a diver out 240' on a #2, and a DW Super Slim Feelin' Erie spoon fished off our 80' rigger. Best down speed was 2.1-2.3mph.

Nice fish! Too bad about not having a LOC ticket. That's a mandatory item on my boat. I hope they get it mounted at least.

I'll buy any color diver they make! Then I'll paint it Black to match all the rest of my divers. I personally want the flasher to be the attractant, not the diver.

Congrats Paul! That's a life-changer for sure right there!

He seems to be interested in that old brick even though this coyote doesn't:
