Seneca 8/19/2014 Back at it this morning with the better half………….. lines in the water at 8:41 am running same spoons as yesterday and depths…….1st fish hooked up and landed at 9:15 am double up but the 1st fish a laker was ready for the net so other fish was gone…by the time we got to….better half was happy with the nice chunky laker about 20†or so we put him back…. She said the one that got off was my turn…..I said no problem honey ……. Next one on at 9:20 am boated a 17†salmon on the same spoon as the laker 58’ down FLT BFFG … she was happy with that one jumping out of the water a few time so everything is going good so far…... then 10:34 am hook up one the 52’ probe rigger she tell me to take it , I do and it’s a heavy fish….. I tell her that it’s a good one take the rod…… nope she said your turn…… long battle fish runs the boat then pulls a lot of line back out and runs alongside of the boat with the other rigger in the water….reach over and pull that rod out and put it in another rod holder making room to net fish… … she nets for me but to heavy for her to bring in so we get it together ………… land a 12#12oz male brown….. on the evil glow goby with scale tape on cup….. at 11:00 am boat on trailer and heading back to camp to get info to mount fish….ended up taking it to “ Hancock’s Custom Taxidermy “……… now I’m in bigger trouble than I was yesterday…… I just can’t win………………

Thanks guys !!!!

don't be afraid to try in shallower some huge bait in the 60 to 80 FOW ..... ball speed has been 2.4 to 2.7

Thanks Cuz !!!! Crazy Eddy I've been in full flea mode for weeks so it's hard to say how bad the are................. would I fish without flea flicker line ? NO !!!!

Thanks guys his coloring was great !!!

The wire rod with that fish on it jammed up with a piece of weed and fleas it was out only 15 minutes or so.....in one word they are spotty.... some places thick and other barely a trace ..... if it's like the past two years they will be like that right into late September..... I tried some thing different today when it jammed and worked fast and good...... took my reeling hand and grabbed the wire just above the reel and pulled ..... started working fish again....seemed like the extra pressure cut thru the weed/flea...........been running Cortland flea-flicker on the rigger rods since the fleas showed up with out any problems...

I was a tad wimpy this am but check forecast and looked like it was going to get a lot of wind later...........so gave Hoot a yell and off we went....set-up some time after 10 am and picked up a good laker I lost behind the boat we got a good eye on....... on rigger FLT spoon ......later the wire rod goes off 105' wire out S/D with a green fly..... heavy fish.... I work him in and Hoot puts the net on him...... 27" pushing 10# brown.. big male nice hook-jaw and great color.... that was it called it a good day !!!!!

Just got back in put a hour meter on the kicker see we had 5 hours on it..................2 for 2 two rainbows 21" and 17" boxed the 21" first fish to the boat......51' down and 61' down ...... chickenfeed flt , and bullfroggy frog glow........ worked hard for two fish ....but we had fun !!!!...........

At least you got out Les......I got back up here yesterday and didn't go out and it crazy out there today !!!!

Mine was wired right to battery.....float up , trips auto on , pumps out water , back down and auto off......

Hope you don't pick one of my SKUNK days ......

Are you at Camp now ???

Ok thanks I'll do that....

My buddy is thinking or is going to make up some pike flys...... any info to help him out would be great . Thanks
