Yankee Troller

Southbay Boat and Tackle and Mitchel's Bait and Tackle have both advertised it.

I don't keep track of that stuff, but definitely taken some nice fish higher in the water column. That being said that spoon was tracking in sub 60* water which isn't "out of temp" for a Salmon. In a few more weeks it wont be uncommon to catch matures feeding in 70* water.

I'm hearing great things about the iTroll from the Walleye guys.

11" E-Chips have been really good for us as of late. Green chip w/ glow and waffle tape, and UV chrome 2 face.

Nope, run what ya got. Alewife, Herring, Ballyhoo.....

Sunken boat is from Oneida, and the pipe is on Lake Ontario. Both fishey spots found not looking for them, but glad I had SI on.

Thanks guys. I appreciate the kind words.

It's been our best producer, but we run it a lot so we have confidence in it.

For Salmon and Trout it isn't worth the $, but if you're going to be doing any Bass or Walleye fishing I think it's well worth the extra coin.

July 19: Awesome day with our friends from Maryland! We poked our biggest Salmon of the season thus far weighing in at 25 & 26lbs. It was a fire drill in the morning that turned into a slow pick the rest of the day. We cleaned a 5 man limit, tossed a few back, and kept a couple Lake Trout for good measure. The water we worked was a little West of the harbor. In the morning 125-175'. Later in the day 150'-250'. Familiar Bite Atlantic Herring did most of the damaged, but we mixed in some Ballyhoo at some point in the day and that took the 26lb'r. We had meat going on our 80 & 100' Cannon Downrigger. Wires were firing out 250-275' on a 2 setting. A couple of spoons that went today were a Team Dreamweaver UV Two Face, UV Sea Sick Waddler, and a UV Glow Green Alewife. An A-Tom-Mik Mfg. UV190 behind a Seneca Special Spin Doctor on 400' of A-TOM-MIK copper produced as well. These guys are fishing with us tomorrow, and they already have a 120qt cooler filled to the top with fillets! July 20: Another great day on Lake Ontario! We grabbed our biggest Salmon of the season this morning pushing the scale over 28lbs. These guys from Maryland left with another 5 man limit consisting of 1 Steelbow, 1 Coho, and 13 Chinook. By far, Familiar Bite Ballyhoo strips were our best presentation. We had it on both divers and two Downriggers. A UV Yellow Tail spoon down 45' took the big guy today, and earlier in the day a Carbon 14 Mag took a couple. One fly bite today on the 400' copper with a Team Dreamweaver Seneca Special Spin Doctor/A-Tom-Mik Mfg. UV190. You know it's good when your charter has to visit Wally World to buy another cooler to take fillets home! July 20 afternoon : Kevin and his son Ty joined us from Binghamton, NY this afternoon. The action in that 200-350' was just as we left it in the morning. We had one in that 24lb range, and the rest of the Salmon were upper teens. Familiar Bite Atlantic Herring and Ballyhoo went steady on a 85' Cannon Downrigger, and 200-250' wires. Two spoon bites down 45' on a Warrior Spearmint and a Yellow Tail. One copper bite on a 300' pulling a Team Dreamweaver Chrome green edge spin doctor/A-Tom-Mik Mfg. Green Hammer fly. Back at it in the morning! July 21: Matthew and his family from Buffalo had their annual trip this morning. The lake was not nice, and a few of them didn't feel well, so we got them each a fish and headed for the dock. That's a wrap for a great weekend of fishing. Back at it next weekend! Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Saturday: Morning trip started off super slow for these guys from Albany, NY. When we did get bit they weren't hooking up well. We got on them between 200-300' with wire divers out 225' pulling Familiar Bite meat. That picture died and we found them again in 325-375'. Out there 275' divers pulling FB meat was the ticket. Had a couple bites on the A-Tom-Mik Mfg. 400' copper. One took a Wonderbread Smartfish pulling a Glow Blue Hammer, and the other took a Green glow SmartFish pulling a Green Crinkle. Only two Downrigger bites this morning. Both came on a Team Dreamweaver Midnight Special down 60'. Something cool happened today. We had a hot 2 hour period mid day. After it stopped I checked out the feeding periods for the day. The major feeding time for the day correlated perfectly with our hot 2 hour period! Sunday: Yesterday afternoon, as well as this morning, we made some great memories with the Masters family from NJ. For both boys we broke their personal best fish a few times throughout their time onboard. Familiar Bite meat was definitely our best producer on divers anywhere from 200-275' depending on the time of day/North line. We ran Ballyhoo on one side and Atlantic Herring on the other. We're really liking their Ballyhoo strips!!! We also took a few spoon bites. Salmon Candy, UV Glow Green Alewife, Blue Lagoon, UV Two Face, and Rodfather took fish off our Cannon Downriggers, FishUSA Stealthcore (10 color), and A-Tom-Mik Mfg. coppers (300').

It's been slow out there as of late, but you wouldn't know that if you fished on the Yankee Troller today! We started inside in 25-35' and had a heck of a morning fishing Brown Trout. Cannon Downriggers tracking bottom, divers out 50-60 on a 3 setting, 5 color cores behind Off Shore Tackle Company OR12 in-lines, and a 150' copper. We easily had our box in there, but this crew choose to toss all but 2 Brown Trout back. Hot BT spoons today were Wonderbread, Yellow Tail, Circus Freak, and Sea Sick Waddler. Even though the Salmon bite seemed slow talking with a handful of boats our clients made the decision to try for a Salmon around 10am. Off a tip from my buddy Jonathan Forder we ran out to 250-325' in front of Johnson's Creek. We didn't have a great picture on our Humminbird, but rods started to fly. A FishUSA Stealthcore 10 color pulling a Wonderbread took a few nice Salmon. A Warrior Spearmint took a nice Steelie on a 200' copper. Our Downriggers were firing with a Glow Watermelon, UV Beefeater, Spearmint, and Real Melon with Salmon and Steelhead. We also had a bite on a Familiar Bite Herring strip out 150' on a 2 setting, and an A-Tom-Mik Mfg. UV 190 behind a Team Dreamweaver paddle on the 300' copper. These two father and son teams left with a TON of smiles and great memories as well as a pile of Lake Ontario Trout and Salmon! Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Today was not a numbers day, but it was a day filled with quality. We started looking for Salmon this morning, but the Steelhead kept taking a spoon called Spearmint off our A-Tom-Mik Mfg. 200' copper. One of those Steelhead was 13lbs. We finally hit a teenage Salmon on our deepest Cannon Downrigger pulling a Familiar Bite Atlantic Herring strip, but we'd only muster up one Salmon bite this morning. The bite wasn't great for us, so we decided to head in and try for Brown Trout. We were rewarded with some great specimens! One tipped the scale at 14lbs, and another over 12lbs. They both took a Sea Sick Waddler spoons off our Cannon Downriggers. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Find a charter from Rochester to the West and tell them you don't want darkies. Tell them to take you offshore for Kings and Steel. At the Oak we have the shortest run to that water. We're booked out for the season, but I can offer some referrals if you want to fish out of there.

I can assure you he's not. I will forward this info to him.

What does a Canadian marina having to pull my boat out so I could switch out props have anything to do with an American supporting American products? You reaching here?
