    9/10 Launched at 9am, pulled out at 3pm. Never moved a rod. Lots of marks in 100fow. Tried spoons, flies, jplugs, meat, kitchen sink. Riggers, dipsies, lead core. Nothing worked. Water temp was 68deg from top to bottom. Spent an hour or so in 350fow. Not many marks. 9/11. Launched at 6am out at 2pm. Almost carbon copy of 9/10. However, water temp was 68deg all the way down to almost the bottom and The bottom 10’ was 55 deg. Tried everything including some rapalas today. Hooked a brown in 100fow and 85 feet down. That’s it. 9/12. Launched at 6am, out at noon. Lots of marks in 100fow. Water temp down 70 in 100fow was 45deg. Never moved a rod. BUT we had three beautiful days on the Lake, very light boat traffic and fantastic weather. May have to get over to Erie for Walleye next.

    “One king after another” is the phrase that comes to my mind concerning the fishing at the Oak from 6am until about 11am this morning. Boated over a dozen kings that were all over 13lbs with the biggest at 21lbs, another 4 or 5 in the 5lb range, a couple cohos and 1 steelhead. We never got deeper than 150fow until around 10am. 100-150 was our best water. Down 60’ was 44.5 deg. Flat water. ALL of our fish were no deeper than 60’ Down. Riggers at 60,50,40,30. Also 10 color leadcore got some hits. Lots of other boats pulling in fish as well. Best day we have had in quite some time. Fleas were a nuisance. The bite died for us by noon. By noon that 44.5 deg water became 54deg water. Pulled out at 1:30.

    Launched next to Coast Guard Station at 6:45am, pulled out at 1:30pm. Spent the first hour in close but the gin clear water would not stop. Moved out into 65fow still hoping to find some browns. Began catching Lakers,,, NICE ONES. Picked up about 15 and all but one was over 10lbs with the biggest at 18lbs. Never saw much on the screen. Lakers saved the day for us. Water temp at 46deg. Early in the day we saw 3 other boats. As the day wore on it seemed as if we were the only ones on the lake. Early spring fishing is tops with me,, no fleas, no biting flies, no weeds, and little fishing pressure. Quite a few boats in the bay fishing for perch. Beautiful day on the water.

    OK. Here is a Sodus report for you. And happy pie day. Launched next to Coast Guard station at 7:20am on 3/14/24. Turned west out of inlet set up boards about 1 mile west of inlet and trolled west. 9 rods, before we could get rod #2 set we had a small brown. From then on was a fairly steady pick, most were 1-2 pounds. A couple nice antlantics And 3or 4 browns in the 2-4 pounds and 1 maybe 6lbs. Had a few flurries of activity but mostly just steady up until noon when the wind started to shift from the west to the north. We stayed mostly in 15fow. At 1:30,,, water that we had earlier fished in was now gin clear. Between 12:30 and 1:30 we caught just one brown. saw water that was 43deg all rapala bite off boards except 1 on downrigger spoon. Absolutely a beautiful day on the water. Saw maybe 6 other boats 4 boat trailers in parking lot at 2pm

    Asking $1,850! One owner Yamaha 9.9hp 4 Stroke, short shaft, tiller, manual start for sale. I bought this new in 2014. No issues, runs perfect. There is one blemish on this motor, a nasty little scratch on the rear of the cowling that was all my fault for not paying attention while backing my boat into my garage. The only reason I am selling is because my right shoulder just doesn’t have the strength it used to have. Even though the outboard usually starts on the first pull that first pull still hurts and while drifting the Susquehanna I typically start the motor 30 times in a day! I recently bought a 9.9 with electric start and have no need for this one any longer. There are a few dings on the prop, nothing serious. Annual maintenance of engine and lower unit oil, spark plugs, and fuel filter always done by me. outboard always stored in heated garage over winter. Runs great, no issues. Comes with a 3 gallon fuel tank and fuel line. Always ran non ethanol fuel. A new one will cost you close to $3,000 I am asking $1,850 OBO located near Mansfield PA

    First day out for 2024. Launched out of Treman. Two of the launch ramps are closed as they appear to be rebuilding the lower portions of the docks. Plenty of water to launch and canal was clear of ice. Started In close looking for browns with boards and stick baits. Caught the biggest smallmouth that I have ever seen. Picked up a laker in close as well. Moved out into 100-120 fow after about two hours. Picked up about a dozen small lakers 90’ down. Great day on the water. Surface temp was 40.5 and down 90 was 40.5. Saw two other boats. Talked to one of them and they also caught small lakers and a couple 8” landlocked. Anybody been out of Sodus?

    I am looking for a Mercury 15hp or 9.9hp outboard. Must be: 4 stroke, electric start, and short shaft. If you have one that I might be interested in send me a private message. Let me know what you have and where you are located. thanks Frank

    If you thought about getting out on Cayuga on 12/16 but didn’t make it,,, you missed a beautiful day on the lake. This 10lb laker took a deep diver off a planer board in 190fow. Picked up 3 other lakers in 150fow and 70’ down on the riggers. Water temp stayed right around 44deg. My Lowrance has “glitched” like this one other time. Clearly I’m in 180fow but the depth shows 38.5. Trolling along with no issues and I saw the screen “blink” and the depth went blank and after a minute or so came up as 38.5. Shutdown and restart did not fix but after about 5 minutes or so the depth read correctly. Did this once before months ago. Any thoughts?
