my son caught a whopper back in 94. It was a 38 lber would have won the derby except he caught it the night before.Took over a hour to boat it.Many big fish,many good memories.Im sure he will never forget the fight.We did fish one day before that offshore race many years ago.The one where a few boats broke apart and there was a terrible loss of life.That was the roughest we were evr out but the fishing was awesome.

We marked quite a few large fish sunday 90 down over 140.They were last year also in the same area.Can,t wait till we get a better thermocline.Talked to another boat monday .he took ten lakers on the bottom in 200.Never fished that deep before Now that must take alot of skill. -
Ii Have found coleman spray with 40%deet very good for the little bears. I also spray on before I go out works best. soon the fleas will be here, summer heaven, hot, bugs, frustration, only a screamer makes it worth it

fished in front of hughes and west. Boated several trout.lakers steelhead and a few kings. All fish on orange and silve ms.One large steelie on monkey puke .most fish were at about 200 to 230 It was a wonderful day . I took a few friends who have never boated big fish before..It was so nice to be fishing with people who didnt fall alseep on the boat.Didnt get sick neither.lol All this good fishing and going to waste.We need more boats .Twenty years ago there would have been a dozen or more boats out there .today I saw one about two miles -

fished west of hughes today.the best action was in close 35 to 50 ft. surface plugs ,chartuse jointed rapala brownies..Other fish came on riggers 15 ft down,wonderbread was hot along with diamond king chartuse and glow tape.had several hits and a medium salmon out at 90 ft. Good Steel head was out deeper but had to cut my day.short and quit at noon. Expect to go am if weather permits. It was a grand day to be out on the lake.These days we have it mostly to ourselves which is sad considering past years we had lots of good company . Should be a good summer but where did all the bait we had earlier go ????? -

Thanks for the info Im going fishing soon out of pultneyville .Was last out friday and water was very cold .one small king on wonderbread spoon off riggers set way back.hope to see you soon today -
good advice,chinook for now on.Buying USA is deceving though because the law allows anything 10% made here to wear the label.People have to get into writing letters and getting organized or same old same old they say.

Battle lasted about 20 minuteswith brown pulling out.Reeled the line in and had a stick bait on the gig..that is the second brown caught with a stick bait burried in its jaw.Very nice sheephead largest i ever saw ,lately they seem to have returned here ,gone for several years. -

Bear Creek
john1947 replied to rabhunt's topic in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)
glad the kings are here early.The perch have mostly gone back out the lake here .Again it should be a banner year.I heardalot of it was that the cold water from west have driven alot of bait and fish east. The bait in port was the most Ive ever seen since this fishery started. Excellent report rabhunt ,you and your boys are always welcome on my boat. john -

i good tip would be to go east of port and look for the commercial guys .Kings are here from what I have read.
