Thanks Pete! You know I'm kidding about the Pennsyltuckians. Hell, if my GF was a member of this site I'd prolly get put in timeout for saying that! LMAO

Gonna have to agree there! However, your subject line asks best brand of spoon, and I'm here to tell you they all catch fish! Each brand has it's days.

Our big boy came out deep too on an inside turn. Nice job! I wish we would have hit it early in the AM. We didn't start until about 12.

I'm gonna have to sell a few reels, but I'm interested.

We put the platinum plus in ours. I love the aerial photos of marinas. It helped us this past year going to Bluffers Park from the Oak. We knew how to access the bay and where the marina we were going was from our GPS. I would also suggest the fishin chip as that card shows depths in smaller intervals. WE don't have this card, but Billy V does and he finds it more useful for trolling than the Platinum card.

Not a record yet, and I'm definitely not married! I have a 3yr rule with a trial run of living together. Niether have been passed yet.....lol. [ Post made via Android ]

Amen to that brother Paul!

BTW guys....they were all puking up bait, but the big guy had 9 of them in his stomach. We saw mostly smelt and gobys, but a few alewife were in there too.

Thats the only lunch open right now in sodus. [ Post made via Android ]

Pennsyltuckians.......I was surprised he let some 18" fish go to be honest. I thought the motto for them guys was over the rail in the pail, or was it no need for a ruler put that one in the cooler?????

With such great access to the Lake and it's bays we decided to take the girls perch fishing Sunday morning on Sodus. We got there about 8am and hit the water. We moved and moved and moved, but we just couldn't get any schools on the graph. About 10:30am Captain Jack's breakfast was calling our names. Over breakfast we decided to head out to the lake and give it a go for a little while. None of us had ever fished this early in the season. We hung a left out the chute, put her on plane, and ran a few miles West. We sat down and started to rig. We ran six flat lines using baby Z-boards. Boy are those things nice for Spring Brown Trout fishing! We used various Rapala, Rebel, and Smithwick stick baits run anywhere from 100-150' back. Once we were set-up we felt that one fish would make our day! The water temps were cold and all we found was 35.9-36.1. We were also able to locate some colored water. The first fish didn't take long, and not long after that the second one came. We quickly found our troll and worked the colored water, which was moving West, for about 2.5/3 hours. We ended the day with close to 30 bites. One pushed 10-11 pounds, a few in the 6-8 pound range, and then your typical cookie cutter Spring Brown Trout. Many doubles, one triple, and we came close to a quad. We worked 7' of water out to 30' of water off one of the points a few clicks West of Sodus. Speed on the graph was 1.4-1.7 on the paddle wheel, but I think we were a little faster than that on GPS. Either way it was a blast, and we answered a question many people have been asking lately. You can catch them out there in the dead of Winter. You just have to be able to get out there to experience it! Here is some Brown Trout please no!

I cant say enough about the diversity of the events we have on Lake O. Its a great place to be if you have any competitive nature in your blood. I love multi-day events, and would love to eventually see a three day event that cuts to the top ten on day three at some point. [ Post made via Android ]

Yes there were! Two over 40 were weighed in at the Oak.

Crocs! All Day. Every Day! AND, the people who aren't rockin' them are afraid if they try them they will get sucked in!

I don't think we asked for a Canadian opinion.

We used them a few years ago for BT's and they took a few.

More like we go out and buy some lures. When we go to put them away we realize we have too many and that we need another Special Mate!

Most of my class upgraded, and my GF said most of hers took it also.

We tried the yacht club and were told if we didn't belong to one on the lake then we weren't allowed there. We were gonna just tie up to the dock at the launch until we found a cottage to dock at on the other side of the bridge.

Make sure you buy 45lb copper since that is what a majority of the anglers are using. I would shy away from the Opti ready-rig stuff as I have seen the backing not be as strong as it should be for the longer coppers, however they may have changed that. A-TOM-MIK copper has been around for a while, and it's tried and true. The Blood Run stuff has been around for a few years and everyone who runs it seems to like it. I have very little exposure to the Opti stuff.

No I think what he is saying is come the first weekend of june(Niagara pro am)...Good Luck!!! LMAO!!!!!
