  1. April 12th - Left the Genesee River around 6:30am and hooked right out of the chute. We motored down to Irondequoit Bay and set lines. Water temps were in the high 30s to low 40s. We worked some great colored water between Ship Builders and Hedges. We had a great day! A hot set-up was a Mixed Veggies fished off a Split Shot rig, and a Glow Frog fished off our Cannon Downriggers. Hot stick bait colors were SIlver/Blue, Black/Silver, and Perch. We ran our riggers back 50-60’, our boards from 120-175’ back, and our split shot rigs 80-100’ back. April 13th - We had the same crew out again, and instead of changing up the scenery we went right again out of the chute. We left the Genesee River around 6:30am, and motored down to Irondequoit Bay. When we set lines we noticed the water temps were up a few degrees. We worked the area between the Irondequoit Bay and Webster Park. The bite was just as good as the day before. Our HOT Split shot rigs from Saturday were DEAD! Hot rigs today were our planer board lines with bright colored sticks. Firetiger, Orange, Chartreuse, and Froggy all took several shots. We ran them from 125-175’ back. The lines fished off our Cannon Downriggers also produced well with Glow Froggy, Sea Sick Waddler, and Gator spoons fished 50-60’ back.

  4. Bite is good! No one color is rocking. 130-175 back on the boards.

  14. I'm so jealous of you! First Lady O king of the year! Congrats!
  15. Pulled out of the slip around 7:00am, took the easy troll down the Genesee River, and hooked Left out of the chute. Boy did that feel good! Figured the water East was beat up from the strong West winds on Saturday. Although, some guys pulled some good numbers out of there as the day wore on. Our day was great, and we had plenty of action. We set-up in front of Russel Station, and trolled her to Braddock point trying to hang in 8-15' of water depending on where the mud line was. Action came in spurts, which we figured it would as we passed the ponds. Water temps ranged from 37-40 degrees. Most fish seemed to be in that 10-16" range, but we did get a couple of nice ones. It's good to see that class of fish. Last Spring everything was just HUGE, but we caught very little skippies. No one lure was hot. Black and silver Smithwicks, Stinger Glow Frog, Dreamweaver Firefly SS, Stinger UV Wonderbread, Challenger Lady Bug, and a Smithwick Firetiger all took their fair share of fish. Back at it again next weekend! Enjoy the fish p**n now!
  16. Bite has showed considerably! Water is 38-40 degrees. Good color.

  20. A-TOM-MIK 15lb Torpedo's Sent from my XT1080 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  21. I also fish my probe as the highest rigger. Usually in the Summer time I will find 60 degrees with the probe. Park the probe there, and fish everything below it. Also, anything less than 13lb weights on your probe is going to give you a lot of blowback. We never fish anything but a 15lb Torpedo on ours.
