The lake was fairly calm today. The blue green algae was all over the surface. Looked like tiger stripes of oily paint on the surface.

If you get your license online, you will need access to a printer to print it out. You might want to take care of that before you leave home.

Gulp Minnows in Emerald Shiner or Smelt on dropshot AT LEAST 18" off bottom have worked for me in Goby infested waters. You can rig a second one close to the bottom with out a hook to keep the Gobies busy, but they are persistant buggers.

Fished same general area today. Got one rainbow up high (3 color). No other fish up high at all. Could have been the calm conditions, but there is plenty of bait up high, with a few surface feeding fish visible. Was running lines out and back a ways to avoid spooking fish. Got any other ideas why fish were not hitting at all in the top 60ft?

Water level is way up. You can launch a bigger boat no problem. Watch out for a submerged log and branch right in the travel path 10 yards before you enter the channel on the way out . The tip of the branch has been showing but might go under if the lake level rises.

The 58Johnson tablet referred to by Stoneam2006 that I use is an iPad mini with ATT cellular service. The app I use is Navionics Boating App for iOS. I pay for the Navionics+ in app purchase. It is less than $20, a true bargain.

(OP) Purchased Frogg Toggs Anura Jacket and ToadSkinz Bibbs. Fit is excellent. I followed thier recommendation NOT to go up a size to fit over layers.They even recommend going down a size if you are unsure. I am shorter and 2 bills plus and went with medium bibs and a large jacket. Both fit really well. I would normally go with large pants and shorten them and x-large jacket if it were not Toggs. They are a little stiff, but wearable. Sheds rain/snow great. The only gipe is the zipper on the jacket is pretty flimsy. I greased it up with a product called Snap-Stick that I use to grease my canvas zippers on the boat. The bibb zipper is much sturdier. Thanks to all for your ideas. https://www.froggtoggsraingear.com/AnuraJacket.shtm

Did you fish all the way up to Canoga or did you stay south of Taughannock?

Vogel451- Does Meyers still require you to make a hard right after the handicap lift/transient dock and then do the big U run all the way down the slips? I beached out when I headed straight towards the channel a few weeks ago. Also..can you give us a fishing report on your trips? Thanks

I took a look at the Meyers launch today. There was little chance of getting out there also. (One hopefull thing was that the nearby creek was flowing strong after the snowmelt.) Shore fisherman went home empty handed that I spoke with.
