Totally Hooked

Good luck and God bless.. I'm sure it will all work out.

I really appreciate you doing that for me. If we are good to go I will plan to drop off money, I'm only 20 minutes from Olcott.

If for some reason it falls through I will take it. You got a good deal realdilemma and I still have a cracked probe lol.

Fished Olcott today from 1:30 to 6:30, 90+ feet down was where I finally found water 52 degrees or colder. Fleas were a PITA and biting flies were actually drawing blood. There is a lot of weed mats inside of 225' had to constantly clean lines. Finally decided to get out toward 300 and the temp was better (50 down 80) and the weeds were not as bad out there. Meat took three, NBK on a rigger down 90' took two and a frog spin doctor and green crinkle fly took two. No big guys, all between 5 and 10 pounds. Flies got so unbearable we pulled at 6:30. Back in the morning - somewhere. Anybody launched at Wilson lately? Can you walk out docks to get in boat or is it still launch with somebody in boat and drive over to floating docks?

I too have seen dipsy rigged backward. More than once I've seen people set the dipsey on 3R but not realize the "R" is not as you're looking off the stern, amazing how far a dipsey set wrong can run across the back of the boat and grab everything in its way. I failed to tell one guy that when you release the fish you don't through the boga grip back with it, it's not a parting gift. Trying to cheat two spin doctors and flies on the same rigger....not a great idea. When tilting the kicker motor up so we can run back to port on the main, its best to take it out of gear and shut it off first lol. I had a rookie on one day and he was insistent he would kill a lamprey and throw it overboard while I reset the rod. Six days later our garage stunk so bad you could hardly stand it. For the life of me I couldn't figure out where the smell was coming from, then I found it. A six day old lamprey in the splash well has quite an odor. I thought my wife was gonna make me sell the boat...and tear down the garage. Lost a kings ransome in gear but had a lot of fun.....glad those days are over and we NEVER do anything stupid anymore...lol.

Fished Olcott today from 6:30 to 12:30. Ended up with 12, 10 kings and two steelhead. We lost one other king at back of boat. We fished 200 to 300 fow but our best fishing was between 200 and 250. Ran up about half way between red barn and Wilson and trolled east almost to the plant. Best fish was 22.5 lbs, a couple mid teens and a few more 10 pounds or so. Here is what caught: Our spoon rigger down 70' with an NBK and then a mixed veggie caught a couple dinks. 300 Copper with a Mountain Dew spin doctor and matching A-Tom-Mik fly caught two 6 lb steelies. Same rig caught a 10 pound king when we switched it to meat. White on white spin doctor with a 42nd fly behind a dipsey set on 1 back 150 caught a low teens king. White green dot spinny and a pro-am fly on a dipsey set at 3 back 160' caught all the other fish. That was our best rig for sure. Fished with my brother and two of my boys, kids had a blast, great day out with family. Here are a few pics. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
