Oak 9/25
ws6rufus replied to strutnrut62's topic in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)
TONS of weeds in 400ft-450ft. Lots of flies stuck to line also but must be a different variety than in mid-summer because the came off real easy. -

Started trolling about 5:00PM in 100ft headed east. Zig zagged between 90-150ft. 400 copper with meat rig took a hit at about 6:00PM. Netted a 20lb male king. Made the turn and headed back west. Screen blank till about 7:30pm right in front of olcott in 100ft. No takers. NOAA <1ft started as 3ft but did subside to about 1ft at 7:00pm. Had 3 meat rigs and 3 FF from 50-90 ft only 1 taker.

Olcott 7-12
ws6rufus replied to Poles293's topic in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)
Also went out this evening 5:00-8:30. Waves were 3ft out of NE, not 1ft or less forecast by NOAA. Water was all stirred up, 45 deg at 25ft and 43 deg at 35ft. Got a big hit on a 7 color rod that snapped the 15lb leader. Trip got saved with a feisty steelhead on a NBK on a 30ft rigger. Also got a couple king skippers. Worst trip this year. Apparently fishing was good this morning before NE winds picked up. -
Snagged something about 6miles west of Wilson.

Was trolling Saturday in about 100ft of water when the in-line planer boards on both my 250 copper and 300 copper disappeared under water. Didn't feel like fish fighting so we pulled up other rods and headed backwards. Broke both 25lb flouro leaders at the Copper connection. I'm pretty sure we were stuck on something. Any thoughts?
-
TyeeTanic, Thats whats I heard also. Apparently not the same rule for copper.
-
How much of the backing should you let out after all the Copper or Lead core is spooled out? Should you let out approximately the same amount of backing as the Copper/Lead core is estimated to sink (ex: 300 copper @ 2.5mph = 55 feet) before clipping it to inline planer board?

I went to Oak Orchard on Sun 6:00am till 10:30am. Water was 42 deg at surface. 70 deg prior sat. 1st time this year out of 20+ trips I GOT SKUNKED. Did not see any of the other boats fighting fish either. 90% boats quit by 9:00am. Go for walleye!!! -

Good Luck to you. Definitely give green Flashers/Flies a try wherever you decide to go. Looking forward to a report from you on Sat. Maybe I'll head back to Olcott if you do well. Lets hope marine forecast changes for Sat, NOAA calling for up to 4ft waves. -

You may want to try Oak Orchard instead of Olcott. I fished both this year and definitely had better success from the Oak. Saturday morning we boated 2 20lb kings & lost 2 big fish. One snapped the 20lb leader on the dipsy diver. Got 1 king on green spotted flasher with green fly and 1 on a orange J plug. Both of the lost fish where on green spotted flashers with green flies. Also got a huge 10+ lb sheephead on a glow J-Plug. Fished 25-50ft. All hits were in 35-45ft with flashers j-plugs 20-25ft down.
