Sandy Pond
Fjaq replied to Labguy32's topic in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)
Out at 5:45am, went right to 155fow. Trolled until 9:30 when we landed a laker, 10 minutes later an 8lb steelhead, 5 minutes later a coho. Trolled until 3:15 when we got our next hit but broke off at the leader. All spoons, all 40-70’ down. Beautiful day on the water. IMO Sandy Pond seems to be more for pleasure boaters than fishing boaters. That’s fine but man that skinny water inlet sure gets crowded. -

We set up in 100 feet of water at 10:30 AM Kept looking for 200+ feet of water but never found it. We caught two small kings and one 10 pound steelhead in 155 feet of water. Straight out from the inlet. The two small kings ranged in the 2 to 3 pound range and were both caught 50 feet down over 155 feet of water the steelhead came 70 feet down in 155fow. Drinking beer at 5:30pm. gonna go right back out to 1:55 in the morning first time at Sandy pond for us. I don’t much care for the inlet. -

Sodus Report 5/27

Same with us. Blank screen. Trolled from 6:30am until 1:00pm from 50fow out to 230fow. Surface temps steady at 54deg. Down 70’ temp was 41 deg. Did I mention blank screen? we were tickled pink to hook a steelhead and landed 1 laker. But man was it a beautiful day on the lake. -
Launched at 6:30am and pulled out at 2pm. Tried in close for browns for first 2 hours. Stayed in 20-30 fow. Had 3 hits but missed them. Moved out into 100-160fow and picked up 3 lakers on riggers/spoons. Very little to look at on screen. But man was it a beautiful day on the water. Water temp wanted to stay at 46.8 deg and 41deg down 90’. We did find some 50deg water straight out from the inlet. We thought it would be crowded being the start of memorial day weekend but it was not.

Back in September 2019 a good friend of mine and an avid fisherman passed away. He had been diagnosed with Leukemia in early 2018. In assisting his widow I posted my friend's SUV for sale on this site and ended up selling it to an LOU member. I am once again helping her by selling my friend's Boat, Motor, and Trailer. The BOAT: First word that comes to mind is OLD! If you ever had the desire to restore an old boat then you should check this out. This boat is from the early 60's. It predates titles for boats, so no title. It is a Sea King made by Montgomery Ward. It is a 14' deep V. My friend used it often on Cowanesque, and Tioga/Hammond Lakes. The boat has anchors, rod holders, 6 gallon portable gas tank, 2 seats with a third "jump seat" on the bow, and canvass cover. There is also a very old fishfinder in the boat. The TRAILER: Almost as old as the boat. The trailer is a 1971 Sears bunk style. two new tires on the trailer and two new spare tires (4.80-8). We found the title for the trailer. The OUTBOARD: This Yamaha 25hp outboard was bought new from Peters Marine in Mill Hall PA in March 2018 for $4,000. There is a three year warranty on the outboard so there is one year left of warranty coverage (warranty expires 3/12/2021). It is 25hp, electric start, short shaft, tiller. My friend's widow states that it probably has less than 10 hours of run time as he bought it about one month before being diagnosed with leukemia. This outboard also has a dolphin installed. The TROLLING MOTOR: The 40lb Minn Kota Endura Max was bought at the same time as the Yamaha 25. So it is 2 years old also. We would love to sell the whole package to someone for $4,000. But,,, we will also entertain parting out. If you are interested in something listed like the "next to new with no tax outboard" let me know what you are willing to pay. Everything listed is located in Mansfield PA. Thanks and good fishing. -

Launched at public launch next to Arnie’s at 8am. Turned west at end of inlet. Interestingly there was hardly a whisper of a breeze but fairly large swells coming out of the east. Not bad but the large swells seemed odd to me. we hammered the Browns with a few Atlantic’s mixed in. Largest brown was 9 lbs. Lost count early on but we landed 25-30 fish. Three of us on the boat and we had 2 triples, and at least 5 doubles. Most were in the 5-9lb range and plenty of little guys. 20fow was best for us. J-5’s and 7’s. Brown trout pattern was tops but everything took fish. Best temp was 38deg. All planer board action. Pulled out at 3pm. Hey, note the life jackets.

I was at Treman this morning (3/9/20). Used a long aluminum pole to check depths at each ramp. Very shallow at the ends of the docks 12-16 inches. Too shallow for my Fishmaster 196. Launched at Taughannock.
-
Launched out of Taughannock at 9:30am. Water level very low, usual for this time of the year. No issues getting my Fishmaster 196 in and out BUT if you launch out of here be wary of the ladder at the end of the dock. Not sure what has happened to it but it has very little bracing and appears as if it is ready to fall off. picked up around 15 lakers, all went back in and to my surprise caught a pike on a spoon with a spin doc in front of it. no landlocked. water temp was 39.2 from surface down to 70’.

Thanks Jeremy, ifishy, yankee troller for the info. I decided to check launches yesterday in my car before hauling the boat up. public launch next to Port of Rochester is a no go for me. Ramp and parking lot has about 5” of snow and bottom of ramp water is all ice out about 40’. BUT, buzzed over to Del Lago and won $400! Cruised down west side of Cayuga. Dean’s Cove road down to the ramp is snow and ice covered. We decided not to drive down. Taughannock launch looks OK. Bubbler was not on though???? pics are of launch on Genny and Taughannock. And as expected Treman launch all iced in.
