Congrats

Couldn’t break 20 but who cares!!!! 6 of 10 fish over 10lbs today! This is the best I have had in 40 plus years on the lake! yes I caught two 30lbers in the 80-90s as a kid but I will take this fishery now any day!
I actually got to reel one in today but my daughter caught the biggest 2!
happy 4th of July!

Now I feel 50/50 about our lack of success.
Fished 630–9pm. Most Marks in 140ish fow with few Empty knock offs. Then again in 90-120 fow
tried knocking a laker on the head in 100 fow at last light for the guys with me and found we were dragging a 15” king on a 300 steel.
at least is was a nice sunset!

Good luck Songdog!
Was in Wilson 2 weeks ago during the dumb fishing time but it was a blast when it was dumb! We had a few boats connected so I hope you got a few to link with this weekend. It is a big lake with lots of fish and lots of water to fish so room for everyone!
Share pics of the fun so some of us can live Vicariously as we are remodeling the master bathroom for the boss!

3 days out of Wilson in that NE chop with a 19’ boat catching kings was exhausting! 👍

Long weekend at wilson. Didn’t do as well as some but did well enough to take plenty of fillets home. When your buddies think you are crazy when you tell them you were releasing up to 10lbs kings then they go out with you the next day and do the same they realize it is crazy!
Saturday first it was a 200 steel that took the shots then a couple rigger hits then a dipsy kept getting clobbered then it was all riggers. 100-140 fow. Spoon preference change every hour. What took fish at 8am just dragging in the water at 9. Sometime we could t get back rigged up before another rod popped!
sunday it was all riggers for us no steel or dipsy hits! Again spoons changed each hr with each flurry of hits
largest king was 18lbs
smallest fish was below!!! Caught after watching my rods bounce as the lines pulled thru the bait!
call out to Tacklemaster Matt for sharing on the water!

Lady O started nice with 2-3’ waves then later in the morning the NE wind started ripping. Lady O is roaring now!!
Boated 5 nothing over 12#. Another handful of knockoffs. Best water for us was just west of wilson 120-150 fow. Dirty white boy hit a few. Seasick waddler and white/blue spin dr
east Wind pushed us to almost the bar ending in a 45 minute wet and bumpy run back to Wilson
a couple of coolers at the weigh in had some 19 # kings but nothing for the board
-
Just got out in the water. Will share what we do. Bumpy in my 19’. Better than working

West of olcott to Wilson is definitely in the zone! We got pushed 6 miles east to olcott 2 years ago in the 4’ waves in my 19’ boat! Fun wet ride back to wilson!!

fishing was so great on Sunday when I got home I spent the afternoon cleaning and winterizing my boat! It is in storage now and my fly rod bow and guns are getting the dust knocked off them!
lots of stager marks on 40-50 fow. 1 good rip that let go! Threw all I could at them with no luck! Nice skunking to end my season!! I am better at killing large furry mammals than fishing somedays!
good luck. Hope to see you at Wilson in the spring!

So it wasn't just me. We started out in 80 fow and dropped the fish hawk every 25 to 50 feet out till we got to 450fow. I was convinced my fish hawk was malfunctioning. I even changed my batteries. We only got one small king all day. Our best screen was in 140 fow but the fish would not bite. I threw everything I had in the boat at them. We fished west out to the green bouy and straight out from there. It got too rough once we hit 450 fow to go out any deeper than that.
We ran west and started off devils nose for the wind at our stern in 100 fow out to 240 then into 160ish where the screen was best. I even tried knocking them on the head with cowbells in 150 fow but could turn up a good hit!
Told the guys with me that i questioned my probe a few times!! But zero marks above 120’ said it was true! -
You have to fish when you can…. But when the north wind blows in the warm water……. Sleep in!
Surface 70 degrees
From surface down to 130 over 150-230fow = 70 degrees!! I though my probe was malfunctioning!
best marks in 160ish fow 140-160 down!
Found out I only have ~170’ of cable wire on my riggers!!NEVER have I even seen the temp so deep!
good luck to those that venture out later!

Heading out of Braddocks tomorrow AM.
Hope LO lays down before 6am!

Sandy creek state launch in Hamlin is free and you will be in fishing depth water in 10 minutes. Genny River, I Bay and Braddocks you need to run out further to get depth!
Of course the experience of the Genny river or I Bay recreational action and coast guard inspections might be worth the launch there!
normally I trailer and launch out of sandy creek but I am docked for 2 weeks in Braddocks and had to fuel up at the marina after 4 trips out…. I didn’t even look at the visa receipt!!
good luck!

Friday morning Sandy run
in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)

Agreed great year! In the 40+ years I have fished the lake since a kid I have never seen action like this June and July. I will say I was never that good as some out there but with a freezer full of fillets by early July and throwing 10lb fish back it was an incredible time!! Friends didn’t believe it under they experienced it!
But the question I asked a buddy was the same… where are the little guys 1-6 lbs that we were throwing back the last 2-3 years to have this banner year??
Along with gator my boat will be in storage around mid September then a trip the the DSR before the western streams pick up! Only year 3 on the Tribs and it is my new addiction! Take a pic let it go and repeat!
