Went up to Selkirk and fished the Fall LOC. Had a nice time caught a bunch of kings. Listened to the BS on the radio of the fun guys were having in the pack. WE WEREN'T in the pack !! Finally got some fish on a Spin Dr. One was a lake whitefish , It hit the 10" white & green dot SD with a Ultra green glo fly out 220 on a #3 setting on the dipsie in 70' of water. It was about 20 to 22" long ( remember I am pretty BIG ) One of the funniest things was my partner's grandson that came out for a couple of days. I was holding up his first king of the year for a picture when he hugged it. You should have seen his face a second later when his grandfather hit him with the washdown hose. Pure shock. We got several over 30 , but couldn't make the board or fish of the day. Back at it in the Spring.

Looks like your were up the creek with out the paddle!!!

I think we have to fish deeper on the East end because of the prevaling west winds. The temps are deeper. The UV light goes much deeper that the white light. Just my thoughts.

A dolefin or something like that helps my Islander take the waves better, stopped the porpsing

I don't know what my blanks were, but the sure work great!! The 7' rod is easy to handle and store. Whups the kings and is light enough for the fingerlakes smaller fish. I think the rollers make the wire easer to reel in over the twilley tips. IMO

Great!! Here I am on fixed income and you guys are costing me more $$ LOL

I fish from an Islander too. I love my 7' fish Dr. roller rods. They handle the kings great. Are easy to store , clear the riggers fine. My old fishing partner was 86 and couldn't handle the longer rods. He wouldn't take his turn if the fish was on the dipsie. With the shorter rods he could bring in the salmon fine.

Atlantics don't have a black mouth.

Got out with livewire and his neighbors today. We launched at Long Pt. fished south of the pt. Trolled the drop along the 120' line . Hooked up with a couple of nice lakers on a seneca special spin dr, hammer fly on the dipsie out 300 on a 2 setting. Picked up a couple of small salmon and lakers on spoons. Took a look North of the pt and picked up a couple more. The big suprize was a big bullhead that hit an R&R spoon on a freeslider. That rigger was parked at 55', so the slider was down at least 35' In 250' of water at 2.5 on the fishawk. No clue what the heck he was doing out there. Also landed a 1# laker that had 4# of lamperys on him. One real big one and one small one.
