Hi Ya David Wouldn't be brown trout time without a report from you and Laker John. Monday looks like a decent day so far, might make the run down and give it a shot. Nice to get out and blow the stink off!! Billy Bones

Exactly the same fish, the males do color for spawning but not a different species or strain. They're all brown trout. Billy Bones

Have been running flea flicker 20 lb. since early July. No Problems at all. Billy Bones

Give it a few weeks and you will be able to catch some of the Kings when they start their spawning run. There's always shore fishing available, just don't know much about it. Check with your local tackle store, sure that they would be able to point you in the right direction. I'm not from your area, but I fish the Eastern Basin of Lake Ontario all summer. You don't need $ 15,000 to enjoy fishing, key word is enjoy!! Billy Bones

Got out of Stony Creek on Tuesday with No. 2 Grandson Brenden. Launched at 11 AM and stayed out until 5 PM. Ended up with 6 boated out of 9 hits. 145 to 175 FOW riggers at 95 to 110 feet. Got two mature Kings and four Rainbows off sliders. Kings were 18 and 22 lbs., Rainbows were 5 to 8 lbs. Lure that worked on the Kings was NK Mags black with purple tape and a white underside. Rainbows taken on NK Watermelon. Best screen in 155 FOW. Brenden caught his first King (18 lbs.), for the first 5 minutes of the fight, he just had a stunned look on his face. Wasn't sure whether he was playing the fish or the fish was playing him. He would gain 20 feet of line, only to lose 50 feet. With a little coaching from his old Grandpa he settled down and did a great job. He's Hooked, Wants More!! Fantastic day spent with a great kid. Will be back at it on Tuesday to Thursday. Might try Oswego or Fair Haven (any suggestions)? I am a Canadian, what are the weather channels down by Oswego? Billy Bones

What's the best place to launch to fish the Scotch Bonnet. Brighton or Wellington? Or is there another ramp any closer to the shoal than these two. Billy Bones

Was out yesterday, Friday. West and South of the green can, trolled over to toward Pchyche Shoal. Picked up two salmon 10 to 12 lb. and three small lakers. All fish hugging the bottom. Got the Salmon off spin doctors and flies, Lakers came off NK 28 Watermelon. Total, 7 hits, 5 boated. Sorry no pics, was alone. Fleas were bad, respooled a couple of rods with 20 lb. flea flicker line by Cortland. This stuff works well, just a gum ball size glob at the knot. Billy Bones

Any salmon starting to show at Wellington yet? Thanks Billy Bones

Nice fish Todd will have to get together on my next trip down. Billy Bones

To all that volunteered time and effort. WELL DONE! Billy Bones
