Skateo. we were out there also.. 500fow... Had one run 900ft out before it straightened the hook.Had to clamp the drag down before we got spooled ..Spoon hit I would have liked to see it... Stayed the night and fished today. 8 majors.. several steelhead,and some skippers..Mostly spoon bite. Best salmon day in many years

After reading about all the great fishing I think we got there late for the party... We did manage a decent brown, a couple skipper kings , a teenage king and a real oddball laker that I wish I took a picture of. The laker was shaped exactly like a football brown... had like a stubby nose.. had the coloring and spots of a laker. did not weigh it but it felt real heavy in the net. released it as quick as I could without touching it.. Got out about 2PM started in 140 and worked the area between 140 and 240.. got off water after dark.. spooks worked the best fish came off divers and riggers. different depths. Nice afternoon to be out .Stayed the night hopeing to get a early start this morning..the lake was roaring with a north east blow. HARD TO BEAT A LO SUNSET. Marked a lot of bait and fish...

Rented a cottage on fourth lake next month.. Never been there . Supposed to be lakers and LL. salmon. 21ft boat.. Any info would be appreciated. PM me if you want.

Thats a great report. Heading up tomorrow.

Wow Wow Wow

I actually didnt reel this one in. I broke the net handle netting it and still got it in the boat . So I just kinda caught it.

Yes No bait . Few fish.

I should add it was a male. If it was a female it would have been real heavy.

Caught this slammer out of Hughes 6/24 ..Silver green spoon 10color...... Fleas showing up. 180FOW .... 24+lbs

Jump in the waters fine.. 607-592-2721 607-592-2721 607-592-2721 607-592-2721 607-592-2721 607-592-2721

Old school and old old school. Ive got a couple in the boat somewhere to. Not for sale but I would trade one for the pirate spoon with like white crystals it has a coarse shinny sandpaper finish.

My first set of these riggers came used on a boat I bought back in the 80s. Parts are real scarce now .I have two more replacement riggers like this in the garage ready to go. These still haul a 12lb ball up from 160ft like nothing.The counters are not real accurate anymore I just dial them in on the depthfinder. The tag on this one says 1985... My math says 37 years old and still going strong. Will definately outlast me. I have one I have cannibalized for parts .It still ran but gears were worn out.. They dont make em like this anymore..

We fished both days. The wind was relentless.. We boated probably around 25 fish. All lakers. Had one on board Sat.8.5 lbs. Had a friend call me Sunday and said if its not 10lbs don't come down to weigh so I did not see final board. I have a cool video of my boat bouncing in the waves but its to large to download... I included a pix of ole wILLIE at the weigh in Sat. Just turned 80. rode the waves for two days.. All fish scraped off the bottom with cowbells.

Thanks for report. Healthy looking fish..Shape like a tuna.. Been fighting the urge with 5 dollar gas but now I gotta go tomorrow.

Thanks for report.

$200 + shipping.........Paypal..... Can ship tomorrow.... Its the Price of a tekota 500LC. There is a pair on Ebay missing some parts $40;00+ shipping. Be sure the mounting bolt in the bottom isn't broke off flush.

I still run the older Big Jon Brutes .from the 80"s. I thought if a fellow LOU guy needed a couple I could part with them. I have 4 extras as Ive been collecting Old brute stuff for years and its scarce. I dont know the value.. PM me a offer.

What you got to trade? These are nice. Looking for a couple good quality linecounter reels.

Congratulations on the win. We fished basically the same water. 12 plus hours both days.. All our fish came scraping the bottom. No lampreys. Nothing big enough.. Got loaded up with weeds twice in the area of high banks in the morning.The bait and fish seemed to be under the weeds. Decided to go back there later in the day and run a 2 rod spread well tended. Weeds were completely gone so was the fish and bait . Maybe next year. All riggers 1 diver fish

It was 1st time fishing at Wilson...Slow morning for the marks we had two low teen salmon in the box.. Later in the day we decided to bounce bottom with cowbells for the lakers we were marking . They werent lakers caught two high teen salmon on cowbells. Counted around 80 boats around us that we could see... Only seen one other boat scoop up a fish. We did not drop any fish.

When your trying to pick out a lure out of the box that works and a salmon hits....Grab that rod!!!! crash!!

tHANK YOU. heading to Wilson Thursday. also 1st timer on west end. We are not in LOC..Want a couple for the smoker.
