    OK. I Would have thought the area next to the Coast Guard Station in Sodus would be iced over. Never launched in the Genny. Google maps satellite pics show, what looks like, a public ramp next the The Port of Rochester Marina at 1000 N. River St. Looks good from the pics and looks like it is closest to the lake. comments on this (or other) ramp?

    On December 21, 2014 our home burned to the ground. The fire originated in my garage near the spot that I was charging my boat batteries. In our home was a Liberty Gun Safe with 19 guns and various papers inside. The guns and papers survived with minor (mostly water) damage. I tell you this because Liberty Safe replaced my fire damaged safe free through their warranty program. Liberty had three requirements for replacement due to theft or fire: 1) I had to have registered the safe when I bought it. 2) I had to provide pictures of the damaged safe. 3) I had to provide evidence that the contents of my home destroyed in the fire was not fully covered by my home insurance. I met all three requirements and I had a new Liberty Safe in my new house just days after the construction was complete. Liberty’s warranty program is for real.

    Another price drop. 421 views and not a single reply. Not sure why.

    If you have a Lowrance HDS you MAY have noticed that you lost your DATE and TIME function back in the fall 2018. You MAY have even had issues with GPS navigation. NOT ALL of the HDS units were affected. Mine was affected and I lost my DATE/TME last fall. My date and time re-appeared a couple months ago but it was INCORRECT. I finally contacted Lowrance. Lowrance has a software update fix. Go to Lowrance Tech support. email them with the issue and the unit you have. Make sure to tell them which Generation it is and whether or not it is a touch screen model or not. There is a different "patch" for each generation. I installed the "patch" today and all "seems" fine. I am going fishing tomorrow and will test everything out.

    Launched next to Arney's at 615am after waiting way too long for a couple of fishing boats to launch and move out away from the ramp. landed 2 kings, 22lbs and 19lbs by 9:30am and a coho around 10am. Had two throw the hook as well. Everything shut down for us after the coho at 10am. No bites from 10am until pull out at 1:30 pm. Our early bite was in 160FOW down 70 with a temp of 45deg. Spoons, purple/black and green ladder back. Quite a few boats out. great day to be on the water.

    Tomorrow is my good day. Thanks for the report, just what I was hoping for.

    FYI - I spoke with the township supervisor at 3:00pm on 7/31/19 and he informed me that the new dock is in and work there is completed.
  13. Fjaq
    When we came back in at 1:30pm on 7/29 there were no docks in place at the ramp. No docks in the water, no docks stacked in the prep area (where they stack them for the winter). The docks were there when we launched at 5:45am. Nothing but nasty metal poles sticking up about 6 inches out of the water. there were 2 pieces of machinery at the ramp. An excavator was on land and a small crane on a small barge. No workers were present. We had to pull up to the bulkhead at the house next to the ramp. My wife held the boat there while I got my truck and then power loaded.

    Launched next to Arney's Marine at 5:45am on 7/29/19. Straight out of inlet set up in 80FOW. Running 6 rod spread, while setting rod #5 our first king hit rigger 65' down, purple spoon. Very steady pick of kings (8 in the boat, lost 5) ranging from 11lbs up to 22lbs. Purple was the color for us early then around 9:30 green spoons turned on. All bites on riggers, no bites on lead core nor copper wire. Worked water 100FOW - 140FOW. Down 85' water was 50deg. Pulled out at 1:30pm. got back to the boat ramp and the docks were GONE!!

    Good job. Thanks for the report. A solo trip now and then is "invigorating".

    Thanks for all the responses. We ended up going to Oswego. Hammered the Kings. All came on spoons, Wonder Bread was top spoon. All came in 60-85FOW and down between 25 and 40'. Water temp at 40' was 44.2deg. 6 for 10 on kings with 2 lakers tossed in. Lead core, (5 color) and down riggers did all the work. Went to Oswego because I heard about Sunset RV Park. We stayed in one of their cabins. Small but all we want is a bed, bathroom, and coffe maker. Parked boat right next to cabin. Only $67 ( including tax). Bob runs the place, great guy. Never been to Wright's Landing. Wow, top of the line launch site.

    Thanks in advance for any info. My wife and I are looking at staying in Sodus area this week for 1-2 nights. Never been real fond of B&B lodging but if someone has a great recommendation we could reconsider. need secure parking for my Fishmaster 196. right now Screwy Louie's looks like my best bet, but 30 minutes away from my launch site. Any ideas? Thanks again

    Made our first trip to Sodus on 4/17/19. The docks at the public launch next to Arnie's Marine were NOT yet in place. You can use the launch at the Coast Guard Station, it has a dock in place. Something I did not know,,, the launch at the Coast Guard Station is CLOSED from Memorial Day through Labor Day.

    Launched and loaded my Fishmaster 196 at Treman today. Yep, the water is low but I got in and out with no more than a lot of mud being stirred up. trolled east side up to the salt plant. Mixed bag of small LL, small rainbows, nice 6lb laker and a nice 5lb brown. LL on sticks, everything else on spoons. Fished 15FOW out to 75FOW. South end water temp was 36.6 and 37.1 at salt plant. Absolute gorgeous day on the water. One other boat trolling and one boat perch fishing. Bite died off for us around 1:00.

    Cayuga Cayuga 3/24

    Fjaq replied to Reel Doc's topic in Finger Lakes Discussion

    Thanks for the report. More nice weather coming this week. I hope to hit Sodus midweek. If not Sodus, Cayuga will do just fine.

    On 3/19/19, in the Open Lake Discussion section, Yankee Troller stated that much of Sodus Bay was still frozen but the launch at the Coast Guard Station was usable. Looks like some nice weather coming our way this week. Any updates on the launch and/or conditions would be appreciated. thanks in advance for any info. If I get to Sodus this week I will post a report.

    Thanks for the info. I too have been wondering the status of the launch.

    Launched out of Taughannock at 9:45 AM . Water was a very low but the ramp is in great shape . Turned north out of the inlet and trolled the west side from 60 feet of water to 120 feet of water. Near blank screen and never had a bite for 45 minutes. Sticks on boards and spoons on down-riggers. Turned east and headed towards the power plant. Picked up a 16 inch rainbow on the way over with a jointed Rapala black over silver. Trolled in front of the power plant for the next few hours. Lots of fish on the screen. Picked up a half a dozen land locked salmon in front of the power plant most of them around 12 inches all of them on the sticks. Also picked up seven Lake Trout in 100 feet of water with the riggers down 80. Most of the lake trout were the 2 to 3 pound range but one was a nice solid 8 pounds.. The light breeze that we started with at our launch died and the water got as smooth as glass. Great day to be on the water. Surface water temperature stayed at 36.5°. Pulled out at 3 PM.
