    Oneida 9/7

    Midday troll continues to produce. Made two downwind passes and ended up with 7 keepers walleyes and a handful of perch. 35 to 40 fow about a mile East of the South Shore Launch. F7 perch rapalas 8 feet behind the ball, F9 perch back about 50, Bare Naked Reef Runner and TDD7 perch on the braid with 2 oz. snap weights. Fish were in about a quarter mile stretch. Lake got really snotty, three footers when I left and a REALLY wet ride back to the launch.
  2. Was pretty quiet up there on Monday and didn't see any Sheriffs around.
  3. I fished from 10 to 12:30 on Sunday just trolling around with small perch sticks on the riggers on bottom and reef runners down around 30 feet. Landed 6 walleyes (four keepers) and 8 perch up to 12 inches, one 3.5# smallmouth. Pretty typical fall catch for me except usually we get more perch. Not bad for the short time we were there. Perch like those F7 Rapalas 8 feet behind the ball plus we caught two walleyes on that rig the other day. Fished 35 to 40 fow a mile or two east of the south shore launch
  4. Just figured there was some sort of official process to get it recognized as a potential catch and release world record. Full length pictures with tape measure, etc.
  5. Wish he wasn't holding it out towards the camera so much.....
  6. I figured this would end up in some big controversy. Sorry I posted it now.
  7. Nice going JTT, I did the solo thing this morning and ended up with just bass and one hit and miss on a spoon that I was pretty sure was a walleye. Finally starting to mark some decent marks off shore on the thermocline. Starting to look better and better all the time.
  8. Posted this again because I didn't think it worked from my laptop. Guess both are working now. Great weather, great event. Great to see all the walleye fisherman out on the lake. Ended up being a slow day for catching walleyes unfortunately. Only four walleyes taken between a dozen or so boats. Biggest fish was 24", 5.2#. Thanks again Justin for organizing and to the whole gang that helped prepare all the food afterward. Everything was delicious. Here is a picture of all the kids that participated with the fish. Here are the rigs that worked for us. Plug was on three color core. Spoons were on 14 foot long cheaters set three feet above the main release. Cheater leaders are 8# mono with coastlock snaps. Rigger balls were parked at 60 degree water.

  10. I have a few you can have. In Tully, NY.
  11. You are letting it out to fast IMHO.
  12. Looks like things are setting up for next weekend. Got two this morning, a 20" and a 23". One on a spoon, one on a TDD perch Rapala.
  13. If you check this on your phone, I have been trolling north of the buoy line between 119 and 123 in the 40 foot water. Lots of eyes out there. Running the riggers down near bottom with perch f9 rapalas and copper stingers. the hit the cheaters on the riggers too. spoons on 30 foot jet divers and deep diving plugs with snap weights to make sure they are running 30 feet plus. From what I have seen, you will do fine out there with just about anything you put in the water,
  14. Yeah buddy! Welcome to the summer troll....
  15. I see some big boats getting launched at the South Shore launch. The two docks in the eastern slip are the deepest. The sand washes into the western bay and makes it pretty shallow.
  16. Ended up scratching out 8 keepers and 6 shorts in the 30 to 40 fow North of Shakelton. Bare Naked Reef Runner and copper spoons were best fished near bottom. Action was not hot and heavy but sure was a nice evening. Buddy of mine was up there same time as us drifting worm harnesses near 123 and only hooked one.
  17. Used to ice fish Lower Saranac a ton. Awesome pike fishing and my partner got one over 20# one day. Headed up there the weekend of the fourth. Looking forward to it. Middle Saranac has some good northern fishing as well.

    I brought some crawlers with me but didn't bother with them, Seemed like the keepers were hanging out together. We caught/dragged some real dinks around. Have never seen so many small ones before.

    Oneida 6/22

    Set lines around 11:30 and trolled for just about two hours in the deep water north of Shakelton. Landed 26 walleyes, but only 9 were keepers up to 20". One of the shorts was only 7" long. Hit pretty much everything we put out - F7 and F9 perch rapalas on riggers, small copper Stingers on three way crank bait rigs, 30' jet divers, riggers back and on cheaters, bare naked reef runners flat lines with snap weights. Had me pretty busy trying to run 6 rods. Never go them all out at once.
  20. Must have been a fluke by I landed 21 walleyes on my first 7 trips on Otisco last August on a spoon rigged on a 12 foot cheater, three feet above the ball. Even a blind squirrel gets a nut sometimes I guess, but from my limited experience, the suspended walleyes don't seem to be ball shy whatsoever. Catch them on Oneida all the time even closer to the ball.
  21. Pick up one of these from Gander... http://www.gandermountain.com/modperl/product/details.cgi?pdesc=Wonder-Pump&i=20769&r=view&cvsfa=2586&cvsfe=2&cvsfhu=3230373639&gclid=CjkKEQjwk9CcBRDEopHmnZa5td8BEiQAr2BckCohd6CrQPvsqe9Ii5MHrFvSirqaLbD_mNwGFh1H-2rw_wcB Works great, is fast, and you won't spill a drop.
  22. Nothing doing on the walleye troll last night. Thought we had a dandy and ended up with this instead.... Might have had the same thing happen later but we missed the hit. Plug came in destroyed and bent in half. Or a tiger got it. Who knows.
  23. Going to make troll this evening. I'll let you know how I do, which may or may not be any indication or help to you at all, since we are still in the developmental stages to this walleye thing. Thermocline is just about set up right. Probably a week or two it will get good once the alewives get done spawning.
  24. Can we register at the Captain's meeting? My crew and boat are very dependent on a mild wave forecast. Also, rules state rod limit is two per person up to 8 lines (4 crew). Any less crew is per state law. Site says 2 rods per person but regs are now 3 per person. Can I run 6 rods if there are only two of us?
  25. Nice and Easy stores have Ethanol Free as well.
