Too many more days like today and they might move out.. Saw a few guys out deep already. The other interesting thing I saw today was alewives spawning in the channel.. I tried to pattern after that but the fish didn't seem to care about color today haha

Set up and running spoons and sticks inside of 10FOW before 6:30 Got a good rip right of the bat but missed it. Boated 4 cookie cutters and a 11# brown all before 9:00 A.M. on everything from a orange/pink DW to a black and white flat-rap. Tried for the life of me to move another rod in anywhere from 5FOW to 50 FOW but couldn't get another hit. Came off the water at 11. T-Storms never moved in and it turned out to be a beautiful day

Depends on what your fishing for and where your fishing for it.. i typically customize my spoons because theyre never "quite perfect" dont laugh but nail polish works wonders

Hey if it works it works 😋

Got a late start this morning and set up at 8:00 I front of the pumphouse. Tangled up within 5 minutes of getting settled in 😑 untangled, resettled, and heard the sweet sound of screaming drag at 9:00. Beautiful 5.5 pound female bow took a customized small size dream weaver 45 feet feet down over 110 FOW just past the marina. Reset and picked up another small bow on the same setup at 9:30. Trolled up and down the west side until 1:00 with one more bump and decided to hang it up. Slow day but a beautiful one to be on the water nonetheless.

I usually fish Ontario but weather and gas prices are making me look closer to home. Any suggestions on where to start would be greatly appreciated. Saw some posts with some beautiful fish... Looks like canandaigua may be a good place to start. I'd be coming out of the north end. Thanks again. Woody
