Still ended up with alot under the boat.... looks like we'll be getting out again on the 19th....

I've never fished Cayuta (little lake) but I heard that the perch have good and poor cycles there.... this year is a good cycle. My step son told me a guy he works with showed him pics from the ice.... that's all I know.

I saw the post by Pete.... it's doable but bring waders to help clear some debris. We were one of 2 out yesterday. My step son and I launched at 730 and a guy had already been out. We came back around 1ish and that guy was still out. But we went 2 keeper salmon with 1 throwback 15" and 3 missed fish. We trolled north on west side almost to power plant then south on east side. More debris on east, but that's where our keepers came from. Blue bomber took most hits, with 1 keeper. Purple challenger took the 21".

My step kid and I are launching out of Meyers tomorrow

May and June jig gold sonars by day or cast or troll challengers or thundersticks at night...

Agreed old man.... I learned something from 2015. Last year I caught a huge tiger in my kayak one night after midnight...had to be around 40" couldn't measure it in my yak but the thing was way over 3'... as I put it on my stringer, and continued fishing for eyes I had visions of pics and a mount. That fish ended up straightening 2 stringer hooks and got away. After I posted that adventure, and the months that followed I guess I came to an understanding that otisco is a gem and the Tigers it holds are magnificent... I may have outsmarted it with my lure, but it wasn't ment to be on my stringer.... I have to think that's it's still out there getting bigger... and the next time I catch it, I may just snap a pic of it next to my yak and let it swim... Ivery wanted to try one but 36 seems too big to eat anyway, and it's kind of a waste of life to just mount it.... maybe I'm a year older, and getting wiser... maybe you guys are wearing off on me...
