    is any of the water near selkirk protected or does it get just as ruff as ontario , most pictures i see seem to show the shore in the back ground pretty close so maybe your not fishing to far off land and get some protection from the wind , would love to get out there and try it sometime .

    yeah south of sheldrake was a mess all of my prop wash was green but then it cleared up sunday morning but the fish were kind of negative for us , we fished the Aurora area to south of sheldarke got two nice 27 to 28 inch lakers and a few smaller ones not what I would call real good fishing for us , there were fish everywhere we checked just not responding to the jig very well

    Hey copperliner good to hear that your getting out after the lakers !!! Thanks for the info , and take care maybe i will see you on the water

    Doesnt sound good !! it really shut down the fishing last year unless it was just a real slow bite that weekend and the algae didnt have anything to do with it , looks like this is going to be a every year occurrence , did anyone fishing last year notice that it hurt the fishing

    Possibly heading up to Cayuga but I'm hearing the algae bloom might be starting and I don't want a repeat of the last time I fished during the bloom last year , can anyone confirm a bloom or is it still good , the last post by Capt Mark looks like all is well !!! but we are getting some real hot weather right now .
  6. chugbug
    The algae bloom really messed things up last year when we were up to do some jigging probably one of the worst bites i have encountered on Cayuga hope that doesn't come back this year !!!

    the ramp in union springs was a honor system donation last time i was up and you will be fairly close to deep water and closer than the state park

    Dont know how your boat is set up but if you could get a hold of John Gaulke at the angling zone .com he could set you up on lakers with jigging techniques and he knows where the pike are also , I dont know who is doing charters for downrigging over there
  9. chugbug
    flyrod downrigging now that would be exciting !!!!!!

    The thing that makes jigging so much fun is your fishing one on one with the fish on light tackle and seeing there movement and how they react to the jig and the biggest thing is your not dragging the fish in with the boat in gear .

    Beautiful laker , did you notice if there were any fins clipped , with the colors I'm seeing its a good possibility its a wild fish not a stocked fish , all stocked fish are fin clipped in cayuga

    spoons , stickbaits , fly flasher dipsey rigs just to name a few

    Bob im surprised with your outlook on jigging , I consistently out fish the trollers in are camp with numbers and size at least with lakers , jigging cant compete with trollers when it comes to salmon rainbows and browns we arent fishing in there temp. zone long enough to catch many although in the fall we get quite a few big bonus browns and rainbows when there plentiful .Back when Owasco was stocked with a ridiculous amount of lakers we had 25 fish days and have done it on cayuga too its so much fun seeing the jig and the fish and the chase and one on one when you hook up !!! Love it !!

    you guys using twister tails arent you tipping them with some nighcrawler or minnow

    Thats sounds like alot of boat and motor for the price , unfortunately Im looking for tiller steering and a small motor for the Susquehanna river
  16. chugbug
    ah , didnt see it when I wrote it but now I do , I like alot of room in my boat !!!!!!
  17. chugbug
    I am looking for a wide 16ft jon boat not to worried what it has as far as motor and extras I can put together what I want if I can get the boat .My buddy has one I have fished out of and its real roomy and solid and drafts very little water for river use , its a Polaris Discovery 16ft and 5 1/2 ft wide at the top of the gunnels with a 4 ft wide floor .but any brand will work .

    I spent a hour or so the other day researching Johnson outboards the history of the company is very interesting and surprisingly was very difficult for them at times especially with the competition of other company's emerging along the way . Also with the company in trouble they had some engines built in hong kong probably trying to save money but I dont think they ever put the evinrude name on a china motor. Thanks for the tip on youtube I will check it out it would be good to know when the hong kong engines were built so you could stay way from them if buying a engine .
  19. chugbug
    Does anyone know how many years johnson made outboards in hong kong and what years they were and was evinrude ever made there .Are they a inferior motor and are parts the same with a motor made in the usa

    back quite a few years everyone had the yellow eagle claw rods , when I got four of them I was afraid they wouldn't last because they were really cheap to buy now its been 20 years and im still using them and there perfect for the finger lakes
  21. chugbug
    thats a far cry from 25 footers , thought maybe they would have been bigger than 5 to 7
  22. chugbug
    Did anyone hear how big the waves actually got during the storm
  23. chugbug
    Hey legacy thanks for the videos !! there great !! I was wondering what it looked like out there and to think I was out around that breaker wall in a 12ft deep v fishing for browns many years ago !!!
  24. chugbug
