Good job. Nice talking to you Friday night [ Post made via Android ]

Lil Jake has been super busy. He will not be making the derby. He will get the trophy for second to us like last year. We can do the same time as last year. Same place. Also, SENECA SHOOTOUT is a go!!!!! [ Post made via Android ]

Nick, did you get my pm? [ Post made via Android ]

BAndrus, I have convinced the girlfriend this is the only answer.. a 21 footer on Seneca and the 28 trophy on Ontario... She wants a camper anyways!!

Well, Seneca..... I can tell you thats why cayuga guys do not fish it! Its too challenging We all have rough days. Seneca can be an unforgiving........ . Right now, fishing on Seneca is tougher than any time of the year. We are waiting for the temperatures to set up. Its working its way there. The bait is on the move and so are the fish. We all have our normal stomping ground on Seneca aka "honey holes". I slip in Watkins Glen so that narrows it down for ya. Chances are you will find me on the west side of the lake. West is best East is least.... I fish the middle of the lake once summer hits full throttle. I will start with a down and out pattern every time out. I run a 13-15 rod spread. Im fortuante for the width of my boat. We run 3 riggers, 4 dipsys, 3 coppers, 3 leadcores. The coppers/cores are off Church Inline boards. The riggers, we fish temperatures when they finally show. RIght now, chances are you can get slamon flat lining, and get them down 135 foot on riggers/ divers. This makes it tough to reallt target fish, unless you fish in close to shore for the fiesty browns. Our dipsys, we run spoons on 2 and flasher flies on the other. Flashers we run deep on magnums, out 220-280 The fish tell us what they want generally, the go to all summer is around 260 for me. The spoon dipsy I am runnin a 001 dipsy on wire out 175-250 as well. This rod pulls quite a few bows.. I can tell you that i run all light spoons for the most part, DW, MS... My favorite rods all summer are the 300 copper and the 12 color core. I run ball speed 2.2-2.5 mph. Some guysthink I run too fast. Let them think that as I can produce some fish. I try to avoid getting toom many lakers, as I like clients to see a fish that gives a bit of a show. The lakers just thump.. You can always give us a shout if youre on the water. you will find us monitoring 68.. Welcome to call as well, my cells on my website. Be on the water all day sunday! Tight lines! Keep em wet! Nick

dave, watkins glen still has not signed off on the shootout. They are making this tough to happen this year. The first ever might not happen till next year. I will have an update as soon as I get more info.

Boy, reading these reports make it easier to want to make the decision to move the boat North. All of the reports this year have been great. Keep them coming. Luckily I have a few of you that I can get on lady O with. Thank you. Maybe after this year, I'll make the move. My boat is ready, but it's do hard to justify the drive. Can't beat only being fifteen miles from the boat. Anyway, thank you for all the good reads. I look forward to joining you all in the future. Keep the great reports coming...

Paul, my marina wants more fishing boats... [ Post made via Android ]

Someone squeezed him. Lol. I wonder what he looked like swimming [ Post made via Android ]

Nice website!! Great find. Ill order from them in the future, I gaurantee that

I would of been interested in the whole engine!!! Why did ya part it out?

Paul, ya just gotta start switching some things up. We'll meet up soon. 5 hours should produce over 20 fish when the fishing is decent. I know you can do it. You're in the right waters

LOL. Rollie, technically the 5 MPH or NO WAKE starts at the bridge. If officer cintrelli us up for it, Im sure he would write a ticket if you did it between the break wall and bridge, but I have followed him out on plane from after the bridge to the lake.. Posted on the bridge coming in is the posted limit.

I'm ready... have some clients fishing Saturday with me. Sunday and Monday I'll find my way towards you guys [ Post made via Android ]

Of course Dave, I like posting reports. Not before the tournament though. :-x I have learned alot on this site. This site and determination has gotten me a long way. Who would've thunk I would of won a derby? Why? because of this site. I had no idea what a spin dr was 3 years ago... Now look at us.. This site grows everyday.. I constantly send new people here..
