Nice job Greg! Glad to see you out there, seen you go by, I waved but I don’t think you saw us, I was using the Lund today. We have been out 6 times flatlining since mid December, finding mixed results. Most of the lakers we have been hitting were in the top 3-5’ of the water column mostly on sticks behind the big boards. So we changed things up and decided to cast yesterday, we made the right choice. Bite was hot. -

Trips 6&7 2022, Action starting to pick back up, was a decent bite for our two January trips but slowed down in February as it normally does. All salmon yesterday, solid fish in the 4-7lb range. Cayuga slam today which was exciting for the crew! Fish averaged smaller today but more of them, the 9 rod spread running in ~20fow off the big boards kept us hoppin. UV green/yellow have been hot, taking 80% of hits.

Can’t get out of Myers, as of a couple days ago the town of Lansing was still rebuilding the retaining walls in the marina and have a containment boom blocking the channel. Lake level has gone up, about 1.5’ in the last couple weeks, so as soon as they are finished and pull the boom in it will be fine. Use Taughannock, as long as you have clearance to get under the bridge. We’ve made 5 trips out of there this winter.

Ditto on making sure water is out by starting it quickly. Heated garage helps too. Rod guides usually not an issue. One thing to remember is set the clips on the releases light. I hadn’t been on the water in 3 weeks and got excited and ahead of myself and clipped all the lines on where I normally would in warmer temps and forgot about the icing that occurs on the release clips. Learned lesson yesterday when the #3 rod (center rod) of the 5 rods on the starboard side takes the first hit 5 minutes after getting that side set. Yep, froze, wouldn’t release, had to clear rods 4&5 before bringing that fish in. Luckily, the line still pulled through the frozen release clip and took drag. Mistake was not made again. Sometimes icing occurs on the planer board line as well and clips struggle to slide down line. A little finesse by bouncing it down the board line helps. If ice gets too think, I’ve had to reel board in while stripping ice off.

Lol. Ya I thanked the state park workers with the backhoe knowing it would make light of my morning ice chopping duties. Locked up pretty good overnight, we chopped ice for 45 minutes but well worth it. Salmon and browns were hungry. Finally left the launch at 7:45am. 9 rod spread kept us hoppin. Nothing big but some quick action. Off the water just before noon. Tying more flies this afternoon, found a hot color combo. Good luck if you get out!
