Thanks for posting. Seems like less and less reports on here. Fleas were bad last time I was out as well. Had to hand line in a couple times. Those bows are a good time, no doubt about it. -
Wanted Coleman lanterns

Is that for sale? -
Looking to buy some coleman lanterns. Preferably 1980 and older. Thanks.

No browns here. Caught some real nice ones a number of years ago flat lining in spring but fairly newer to deeper trolling. Still waiting to get my first doing things this way. Hopefully soon! -
Been a busy summer. Last time I got out out was July due to many different reasons. Game plan was to target rainbows. Ended up 6 for 9 with 3 rainbows and 3 Lakers. All fish released. Two of the bigger bows looked skinny. Lakers were smaller. Had a couple leadcores out, 2 dipsy rods and 2 riggers. Eventually ditched flasher fly bc fish seemed to want spoons. Fleas weren't bad.

Same for me chuck. Seems to be favorable conditions for bows recently. My son loves catching them. As for walleyes...I believe keuka has had some walleye catches lately as well. Sounds like someone probably making their way around the fingers doing some stocking. -
Def got fleas. Broke out the wire dipsy rods in anticipation. -

How many miles? -
Got out with a friend of my boy and his Dad on Sat. Fished about 745 to 1045ish before the idiots usually come out. Went 7 for 9 with 5 bows and 2 Lakers. Best 2 fish caught was a 9 lb laker and a 4.25 lb bow. Ended up being my boys friend's biggest fish ever ...his pb was a big carp before. The dad reeled in the bigger rainbow. Was caught off guard when a laker bit the 3 color leadcore rod when surface temp was around 70. Didn't use fishhawk today. Got lucky.

How far out of stoney do you gotta go to get to salmon water? -
Did you check the dreamweaver site? -
Fished 7th a couple separate times. Caught a 20" ish landlocked out of there maybe 5-10 years ago with leadcore and spoons the switched over to bass. Also around the same time trolled on a separate outing and caught a small skinny laker one morning with spoons again. Didnt see much for bait but maybe there wasn't much happening the day i was out. That's about it for me other than casting and catching little smallies. I didn't have downriggers at the time. Fished on the outside of the big island in 7th. Theres a good drop along that island from what I remember. Sorry, not much else for ya

for sale : usa 2 plano spoon boxes
troutman10 posted a topic in Classifieds - Buy, Sell, Trade or Rent
I have the smaller and larger spoon boxes from plano for sale. Asking $15 for the smaller and $30 for the larger. Will ship on your dime. Used for one season. Still in great shape. -
I believe the state record brown was from keuka lake at one point in time as well. Not sure of the story or the size of the fish. Maybe it will ring a bell with some others. -
Way to go, Congrats! That's a beauty. This is a great spot with alot of help like you say. I've narrowed the curve with everyone's help here as well.

Sold / Closed 2 downrigger combos

No longer available. Forgot to mark as sold. -
I have very little experience compared to alot of people on here and have been successful using the 100 rule that Reel Doc speaks of. I'd start there unless someone has better advice. -
They were about 20" and smaller. Nothing huge but fun finding them. Fishhawk said around 2.5 -
Had a rod down about 60' for Lakers and targeted rainbows with the other 5 rods. Went 6 for 8. Brought 4 rainbows and 2 Lakers to the boat. Two fish lost were rainbows as well. Lakers bit gambler rig with spin dr and bows bit various bright colored spoons. The boy was loving it.

Way to go! Sounds like an exciting day. Looks like an atlantic in the bottom middle of that one picture with a gill issue. Caught one up on ontario with a gill looking the same. Makes me wonder why some of the salmon look like that. -
Trolled around looking for Rainbows again. Fished west side from Tichenor Pt south. Went 2/4. One of the fish missed was a good sized rainbow and assuming a good sized laker that was staying deep. Fish came on stinger spoon and a warrior spoon. Depths were 20-50' down and down speed was 2.5-3 mph and down temp around 45 on the fish hawk. Surface temp around 48-50. Bigger rainbow was 4.5 lbs and around 23".- 1 reply

The fish looked in good condition. One had a mark on its back from what I would guess was an avian predator trying to catch it at some point. Not sure the temp 20-40' down. Fish hawk got to my house later in the afternoon when I was off the water. Marked some bait around 100' in a few spots. -
Got out for a solo trip yesterday. Trolled west shore from drop off area in Woodville up to Bristol Harbor area looking for rainbows. Ran rigger around 40' down with cheater 20ish along with 2 mono flat lines out each side with planers. Ended up catching 3 14-18" bows. They lived to see another day. Changed up colors as I went. Got 2 on stinger standard spoons and 1 on a black and silver smithwick. Good to be out after crappy week of weather.
