Thanks Hillside! Going to show this to my younger daughter to try to convince her to go out on the boat with me this afternoon!!

Fished last night 7/3 4-830 started 120 fow immediately with a small king on dipsy w spin dr and meat. Followed with a small bow on 200 weight steel orange/silver spoon then slow moved out to 250 fow for an hr with very scattered mark but no takers. Ran back into 120-140. Lost track of number of small kings and knock offs or dipsy rips from 630-830pm hoping for a nice one that never came. Nothing on riggers until after 7pm. dipsy on 2 setting out 150-175 green spin with meat zero on flies Green/silver and Black/purple spoons riggers 50-80 down hope this helps someone

Look up bill saiff outdoors on YouTube using Brads baits with scent behind flashers instead of meat! I am going to pick up a couple to try once my meat supply is done!

Just set up and hit 160fow heading north! warm water is in 60 on surface 58 down 90

I will be out in the AM out of sandy creek also. Launching around 7ish. Will post if any luck.

Sorry Bill! Sandy creek in Hamlin just west of Rochester! Good luck on the eastern end!

Yes I would like kings but….. after overheating 2 weekends ago and completing the repairs on Friday… we tried for 1.5 hrs for something in all the marks and bait we saw in 100 fow then changed set ups and went 11 of 13 on lakers (largest 13 lbs) in 2 hours including 2 doubles with my 84 yr old dad and another old friend I will keeping dreaming of kings but be happy for some action!! just east of sandy creek in 100 +/- fow 2 riggers w/ cowbells and spin an glows 5-10’ behind the balls dragging bottom. First time I tried this set up ever!! hope this helps someone who just wants to catch something some days!

I lost 2 spin dr set ups last night! Both to fish! Release issue and a broken leader!!! Green with crazy **** fly! My daughters favorite! did you see the guy in the kayak between Wilson and the river on 100 fow? not killing them here but not skunked either! Nothing over 10lbs yet. marks and bait balls to hit ratio is 100,000 to 1. Never seen so many marks in the screen without a rod popping!!

Heading out next weekend to Wilson Friday 5/5 to Monday 5/8! I am just a rec guy fishing with his daughter, buddies and dad over the long weekend looking for others to share info with on the water. With the derby on I would guess reports may be quiet! PM me if you will be out and want to connect. There are plenty of fish in the big lake for all to share!

Congratulations! I guess it is a checking and hanging tree stand day for me today!!

Whaler i used your info from the other week about the kings out of temp! I didn’t want to try to get out any deeper with the waves so 100 fow it was. It worked out! 2 screamers in 2+ hrs makes a fun night! what is the trick with the Braddocks channel? Trim up the lower unit and pray?

Hadn’t been out in a few weeks and zero recent reports made me try the closest port! After sand blasting my prop to get out of the channel into the NE rollers we figured out why all the family boats were on the inside of the bay! We pounded out to our planned starting point of 100fow where 2 other larger boats were spread out. The 3’ waves and relentless NE wind made it a little more fun than planned as we could only trolled west but the first screamer while releasing a skipper made the night interesting. Unfortunately it came unbuttoned! So we pounded back east to set up for a west troll again. Got past our mark and a bit further west when the 2nd screamer ripped! 25 minutes later my daughter had her personal best 25.2 lb king in the boat! all in 95-105 fow… skipper 90 over 105 green spin dr with meat screamer lost 80 over 105 white green spin dr with crazy **** fly 25 lb king 65 over 95 on green glow DW spoon Hope this info gives someone a starting point!

Sorry for the late report. I was thinking a Braddocks boat would give an update. we were out of sandy creek early. Cold water was in close. Probably at bottom in 60-70 fow we hit 2 kings (5# and 12”) and a few knock offs from 130-300 fow. Moved back in tight in 70-110 fow but no takers black and purple spoon and carbon 14 took fish meat rig and green spin dr took hits slow but nice to be out best of luck!!

Out of sandy creek off Hamlin st park last night cold temps had moved back in shallow. But lake did not roll. Surface was 74 from near shore to 200fow 49 degrees 95 over 130 at 530pm 49 degrees 90 over 160 and 200fow 45 degree 90 over 130 at 830pm slow bite but got my dad a nice rainbow for his birthday fishing trip and my daughter lost a king in the 8-10# range (not 20 but not 2 lbs) grand prize was a nice beach ball in 110 fow!! good night for 3 generations on the water at least!
