thanks ...appreciate it.

any one know where I can get on line a contour map of sodus bay? thanks,

No fortunately I was patient and after 40 minutes of fight in the hot sun...a refreshing dip in the ocean was fantastic.

Hey guys, Thought you might enjoy seeing another species for a change. We have a small place on the central Pacific side in Costa Rica and each year I try and take a charter for a fish I'd not caught before. This year we went after the roosterfish. I'd heard much about their tenacity and strong fight. The charter did well landing 4 Roosters...a couple in the twenties, one at 35 lbs and a monster I was fortunate to get...a "grander". Any over 50 lbs is considered very big ...the one I landed was 80 lbs. Took 40 minutes to boat...the biggest rooster the captain had had in 18 years of chartering. Went swimming with it to make sure it was totally revised...besides was nice to cool off.

thanks..good fishing!

Hey guys, Am thinking I'd like to launch out of Sodus Bay. Where is the best place to launch from and how to get there? thanks!

Bill, Very glad to see it's still fun and the family getting to enjoy it. Great post.

all good ideas...now to find a local forecaster who lives on the lake..... thanks guys!

great sites...I used this one.. http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.ph ... it=0&lg=en but had the wave heights and whether they were going up or down...can't seem to find that part. any thoughts? thanks LG

Does anyone have the weather site for Lk O that gives the wave height....I had it but lost the site when the old computer crashed... I've searched but just can't seem to find it. thanks

Thanks to you all for the info....think I will use the Blacks as per Billy V's advice.

thanks...that seems like a much better way...I'll contact Bill.

I recently hooked up a depth raider. I fastened a blacks release just below the probe. Twice I've had the fishing line wrapped around the cable which is NOT good. How should this be set up....I was thinking of putting a Rhomers above the probe?! Would appreciate any advice on how to set this up? thanks!!

Chris, Thanks for the info....glad you were able to get fish. Guess I'm still in the early learning curve but will keep trying. Nice fish....

Could find decent temps with no fish...found fish in 65-70 degree water all over the water column. Tried different spoons, SD/fly combos, lead lengths...etc ...etc to no avail. Heard on radio of some fish being taken but my guess is not a lot. Would like to hear from someone who caught fish and see what I was doing wrong.
