​I had awesome trips from may till mid august. But since they started staging the kings have lockjaw however the brown and steelbows have filled the void.
just got back home from the oak fished today 90-140ft 70-90 down carbon14 Oscar and 42second gold spoons and white green dots spinny with a atomic uv pro am fly 280 on wire ended the day 17for 31 don't think it can get much better
Saturday was the better day in 100-150ft sunday fishing was better out at the 28 line strangely enough the water was calmer out there and the fishing was better also. spinny's seem to produce more consistently than spoons for us in the top 70ft. same size range as Nick with most 5-12# with only 2 over 20 but great numbers both days
fished from daylight till about 2 from Meyers to the south end on the west side running toplines and downriggers. Caught way to many little 14-16in landlocks and 1 nice landlock about 6pounds rainbow trout pattern thunderstick and smithwick did the best. the bad thing is about half the fish we caught had lampreys on them. All fish lived to fight another day except the eels we released twice as many as we caught
there is nothing wrong with stream fishing when done right. The problem is about 8 out of every ten people on Catherine and several other streams deserve to be ticketed
Dream weaver moonshine or finger lakes tackle will all run together ssw, carbon14, green gator, 42second,kos,freakyfrog,and black meat pounding deep are a few of my go to spoons for kings
I was thinking the same thing might try to get out of sodus by the coastguard station on sat with the warm temps and recent rain should be good if we can get out
