    The additional cost of bait strips can be a "no-brainer" to charters when you examine gas savings per hour if meat helps clients get their limits faster. As a weekend warrior, if I can catch fish on spoons or flies......why bother. Part of the fun of fishing is fooling them with artificials. Derbies and tournaments I do have some meat in the boat, but it only comes out if the fish are not biting and I have gone thru plan A, plan B and plan C.

    That is what I call a “boat slip”.

    The meat just falls off the bone!

    Haven't you seen football browns in spring stuffed to the gills with bait and yet still hit a lure? Stick to your streams Lucky. You best take next fall off from fishing to protect your legs from all the three year old kings that will be ascending the Salmon River. Wouldn't that be ironic that the species you hate so much knock you on your ass.

    Find rocks and you will find gobies......and then you will find bass.

    I would fish it like Chautauqua. Find a hard weed edge on the windy side of the lake and anchor so your transom is near the edge. Fish from dinner time to 11:00 with a jig tipped with a piece of worm near the bottom. Fish will creep out of the cover to feed in the open and the open water fish will move in to feed near the edge.

    Hammer used to be good for me but now sits out of the rotation due to a three year underperformance.

    My method to salmon fishing is not conducive to C&R.

    Speed will be plug dependent. A size 5 plug will be dancing at a different speed than a size 3 plug. A J-plug will have a different ideal speed compared to a Lyman plug. Put them in the water and make sure they work erratically but don't roll over.

    Better survival chance than release into the cooler. I can’t say I have ever come across dead salmon carcasses while trolling either.

    Been working on redoing console and boat gauges on the old girl so didn’t fish all June. Decided I didn’t want to deal with the heavy flea infestation plus lack of wind meant I want to find some moving current to keep fish active thus off to the Niagara. I usually stay away from the drop in July due to all the shakers that are present but with my brother in town we had one morning to find a drag-puller. We were the only ones out there for the majority of the morning. Shakers were out in force but fishing in the Niagara flow kept fleas very manageable. After the 15 th shaker hit a mag spoon I switched over to Tomic 6” spoons to keep shakers off....,,hopefully. We ended up taking a 17 lber but still were taking shakers of various sizes. Pulled lines at 10:30 not wanting to hurt anymore babies. KINGS ARE VORACIOUS predators as a 15” king will hit a 6” spoon.

    Boomerang disease. Lew Zealand, the muppet that throws fish, would love those.

    Those Jersey Shore morons will be at Sunset Bay Beach Club on Sunday. Hanover Bay officials will be shutting down the bay once parking has been maxed out. Avoid the trip if you can.

    Nick, we will be out of Sodus.

    .......and so the disease of the salmon mind begins. Soon you will be laying in bed at night staring at the ceiling while trying to figure out a full 11 rod FUBAR spread.

    Garry, the rod trees are designed to run multiple lines on planer boards off the side. The vertical separation created by the rod tree design allows for lines to clear each other when a fish hits and loads the rod. I agree that PVC would not hold up. Most of the major manufactures of fishing systems have a planer board rod tree base that you can mount on top of your gunnels. Getting your rods up high also serves to make your inline planer boards track further out.

    Alewife eater.
  23. Gill-T
    That is when I put out my orange spoons.
  24. Gill-T
    Alewives spawn in June. Most move inshore. Follow the food but be prepared to be frustrated by well fed salmon. Fish at low light times.

    The Gill-T Hooker is in for Friday and Saturday.
