You have to test them on same side of boat going into the current at the same direction. Dipsys on opposite sides same distance back may be 10' different in depth based on how the current is hitting the face of the diver

Remember a key component to depth via dipsy is downspeed. You want to hit deeper zones, troll slower baits like meat rigs.

Prep your family and friends that they will be needed awhile afterward to watch your other kids. Hospitals do not allow other children into the areas with newborns to prevent spreading of colds.

Reelin' for a Cure- could use your help August 18th women's team event at Olcott. Quickly approaching. The event could use your help. There are more teams than boats available. Please consider volunteering yourself and your boat for a ladies team for a could cause......cancer. There is a website on Facebook. You get a hold Capt. Vince here on LOU if interested. Thank you for considering.

Prayers sent. My first was a premi. Born 2 lbs 10 ozs. Don't be stubborn, rely on family and friends and you will get thru it.

Pulled lines at 1:30. The tally was 13 keepers, 4 shorts and a couple of silver bass. Took awhile to figure the bite out but 0 fish on worm harnesses, 0 fish on leadcore and sticks, all rigger and dipsy bite with small spoons. Northport Nailer in 3.25" size in a perch pattern and Northport Nailer Wild Thing spoons took almost all the fish. Size was small from 3 lbs to 15.5". Good for eating but not for fighting. Riggers around 68'-75'. Standard dipsy out 250' and mags out 225'. Good future class of fish. They were spitting up YOY alewives.

Dunkirk near the fence. Spoon bite

Starting to build a nice box. Dipsy bite

Bunch of small walleyes so far. The fleet must be off Barcelona. Warm water everywhere. Have not bothered to put trout gear out with 74 degree water all the way to bottom

Saw it on tv. Cool.

Ok probably launch out of Catt and make the run. This wind most certainly brought a fresh batch of fish in.

Thanks for the heads up. What time is the start of the event?

Dunkirk Sunday Anybody fishing out of Dunkirk lately with a good program want to share details? PM if you don't want it public knowledge. Towing up to Dunkirk for annual Erie trip. Thank You.

I believe he is asking about copper.

Whether you go right or left out of port is more important than the right/left rotation of the flasher. A circle spun in either direction is still a circle.

I get bigger fish from 10:30-4:00.

PAP your are being punked.

...........my apologies......high school aged kids.

When college aged kids decide to post on LOU.........

It would appear at the time of the charting, warmer water is offshore. With winds calming down, the Niagara flow may take the midwaters back overnight so what silverfox said may hold true. If you want to hunt before you fish, run out to 150', stay in neutral and watch the graph. Put you probe down and find the thermocline. Nothing on the graph?....cruise out to 250' and repeat. Nothing at 250'..... shoot out to 400' and set lines trolling North until you find fish.

Alewives are herring

Wow great layout on that boat! The exterior fiberglass looks new. Can't believe it is a 1977 boat.

Quick stuff at you fingertips go to Olcottfishing.com. Find the surface currents icon near top and click on it. Go to upper left nowcast scroll and find temp transects for Lake Ontario. That page gives you the slice on water stratification and the surface temp in bottom corner

Mike if the lake rolls over, a good bet is to be fishing from the fort and upstream. The bass from the lake don't like cold water and will pile into the river in huge numbers. Often you only have to drift along the coast guard retaining wall to get your fill.

Good news Mike!
