Way to go !! Not just the fishing but also with taking time to help a fellow boater/fisherman out !! That's the way to do it... Mike

Awesome season Joe !! Amazing pics !! That spring early early spring brown was one of my highlights of the year also... Great fishing with you and against you, you always make it a great time no matter what.... Mike

Nice fish John!! See ya out there Sunday. .. Fished there 2 times last week found lots of fish but getting them to go is a different story... Good luck Mike

Me too... Gonna be COLD .. Mike

Here's a few pics of some fish caught on Finger Lakes Tackle Spoons... By far the toughest trolling spoon as far as the finish and apearance. .. Bobby puts out a top notch product that can't be beat .... If you don't have any of these spoons you better get ya some!! Mike

Are you talking about the trees on the side of the boat?? I don't have outriggers... If you are they are Great Lakes Planners and they are the best in the market and somewhat local to us too...

We ran that same combo for quite a while with no takers but glad you got it working.. And yes the rainbows were unreal not just the quantity but the quality. .. THANKS !! Lol.. I'm was actually getting upset with hooking up with bows because I was struggling with lakers and needed a few .. Probably the only time in my lifetime you will ever here me say that Yeah Sk8man I understand but it's a good thing trust me... Having that kind of rainbow fishing on your home lake makes me extremely jealous. . Our club has a one bow limited per team per tournament just to protect them just that much more.. We released all but 1 bow back to the lake Yeah Joe I actually said to Matt a few times awww man another Bow!! Lol... Great job on the decent size lakers, my laker program just wasn't getting it done... Can't wait for Seneca. ..Honestly wish it was this coming weekend cause I have a feeling someone will be doing some big time scouting in the next 2 weeks lol Sent from my SM-N910V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Launch out of the south end Woodville boat launch bright and early and headed up the east side decided to run north a bit after hearing a report of slow fishing in the south end a couple days beforehand.. We set up shop just before Vine Valley running cores coppers Dipsy's riggers and Rigs. . We trolled till just about after daylight before our first fish hit it ended up being a beautiful 8 + pound rainbow that was an absolute blast trying to get it in on a 5 liter rig... We ran a variation of spin doctors atomic flies and Finger Lakes tackle spoons. The flasher fly bite was non-existent all day but the Finger Lakes tackle spoon bite was on fire for rainbows. We caught 9 rainbows kept one really nice one for our box and released the other 8 to fight another day... We struggled hard to catch lake trout all day long but finally towards 11 o'clock we started picking some up here and there we couldn't find the big ones we were looking forward to help us out on our box so was a bit worried going to weigh in but we ended up 3rd for the day and retain the points lead.... Congratulations to my buddy Joe Solometo (Keeping it Reel) on here In picking up the win and tightening up the chase for the championship. The championship will come down to the last tournament of the year which is Seneca Lake in 3 weeks... Mike Sent from my SM-N910V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Yeah I can post and a few other off fish too... Catfish was 15lbs... Walt I believe you caught a big cat there one year... Mike Sent from my SM-N910V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Thanks guys... Yes the fish were definitely finicky and we found that almost all our strikes came when we were on a south troll .... On a crappy weather day like that and still have like 10 boats bring in 20lb boxes is still pretty good... Says a lot about that quality of fish in that lake and some of the great fishermen we have in the clubMike Sent from my SM-N910V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Thanks Les yeah I hope so... Tournament 2 weeks away so hopefully it clears up a bit... I love fall fishing on the Finger Lakes, the fishing is usually decent and the scenery amazing... Mike Sent from my SM-N910V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Well after a long month off and fishing Ontario for the whole month I was glad to be back on the Finger Lakes.... We left the dock bright and early. We ran to the drop off and set up shop running riggers cores coppers rigs and wires. The water color was pretty green due to algae I believe so decided to run quite a few glow spoons flashers and flies to start. We trolled quite a ways before our first fish so after boxing that lake trout we switched out all the glow stuff for some of our better patterns this year and it paid off extremely well. We ended up in a spot that normally produce good numbers for us but the front definitely had it slow down.. We were still able to pick up 3 decent lake trout and one big 9lb beautiful male rainbow for our box we fell short one fish tried extremely hard looking for that brown trout all afternoon but just couldn't find one... Finger Lakes tackle and Atommik flies got it done for us today... We ended up 7th out of 16 boats and retained the club points lead with three tournaments remaining... Big shout out to Josh Bellis on his first club tournament win way to go Josh!!.. it was a crappy day weather wise but there was some great boxes brought to the club weigh in..Some big beautiful bows brought to the scales today... Awesome job by all the club members who fished and see you all at Keuka... Mike Sent from my SM-N910V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
