    Morning trip - We had the Palmers Food guys on board including the president of the company. Great group of guys, and VERY appreciative of their experience. They were spoiled in the 4 hours they fished with us. Fished from Hedges East and had a great pick of mostly Salmon with a few LT's in the mix. We worked 40-60' of water with 50' being our best. Riggers 20-40' down with 40-60' leads. NBK's and Glow Green Spooks were our studs. Cracked off a good one on a Reef Runner Bare Baked Coral as well. Big fish took a Green flasher/A-TOM-MIK Ultra Glow Green on a 10 color core. We went 7 for 9 on Salmon and had 2 lakers. Afternoon trip - Our afternoon guys were from Excellus, and one of the guys was the new owner at Bathtub Billys Bar. They also were spoiled in the 4 hours they got to fish with us. They couldn't believe the size of the fish, and how much fun Lake Ontario can be. We fished the same water from the morning. Our divers out 125' on 3 were studs with Frost Bites. NBK's were still going on our riggers 30-40' down with 40-60' leads. We went 3 for 7 on Salmon and took 3 LT as well.

    Just spoke with Kevin, and he doesn't see a need for you to be there if you'r lucky enough to win a day. It was just something he included so the winners could be part of the whole deal and atmosphere.

    Heard of a few, but they were incidentals. Can't hurt to try though.

    The Salmon bite off Rochester continues! Rec boat did well yesterday and some friends are doing them today even though the Salmon slept in.

    1000' will fit no problem as stated above, but if you want your counters to be accurate use backing and fill that spool up. It's easy to do if your're spooling up 2 wires on LC's. 1. Spool the wire up on a reel. 2. Add backing and fill the spool up. 3. Zero the LC on the empty reel. 4. Reel the full reel onto the empty reel and note what the LC says when all the backing is on the new reel.

    Thanks guys!

    Wasn't us. We fished East both Saturday and Sunday. Bite up West of Rochester has been spotty at best.

    There's been a few on or around that 20 mark. Haven't heard of anything much bigger than 21 though.

    Those were 3 BRAND NEW Rapalas that had about 8 fish between all of them and now they are junk! Certain Smithwicks have similar issues with fish pulling the hook anchors out. My Storm Thunderstick Jr's are still solid baits. I've seen where the rats are made, and the one thing I noticed when I walked into the shop was a white board that had a saying on there referencing quality above all else. These aren't "secret weapons" or something that will put more fish in the boat for EVERYONE. However, they are hitting a niche in the market, and painting up some of our favorite colors we cant get anymore unless we pay a ridiculous amount on EBAY and various forums. Let's be honest.....look at Storm Thunderstick Jr's......he color selection has gotten terrible.

    We had the same problem, and so did a couple of my buddies. We just used the canvas covers when trailering. Fixed the issue. Sent from my XT1080 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    Pretty much! I told them I didn't want to Brown Trout fish Saturday afternoon when they told me that.

    When we stumbled upon them we weren't looking for them, but as the day went on and we dialed them in we saw them on the fish finder. Some suspended fish, but a lot laying on the bottom. Picture perfect to what we see and how we fish on Canada for the Spring tourney. Kings mixed in with Lakers. We had that stretch to ourselves with 3 other boats on Saturday that we called in on it. It was nice! Sunday there had to be 30 boats working that water. This is why we fish tourneys! You learn so much fishing different areas of the lake. It really makes you a better fisherman! We've only ever had 1 good event in April up in Canada, but we learn so much fishing skinny water Kings and it paid off this weekend.
