Sanitarium

When I got to the channel I looked back and saw a flat calm lake. Amazing how deceiving it can be out there. I do 90% of fishing on the finger lakes so it is taking me a bit to adjust to lake O. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

the central lake buoy was showing a 2 foot wave this morning and I was experiencing some that seemed bigger. I thought I was at the ocean hearing the waves breaking around me. I would have stayed if not for my boys and wanting them to enjoy the trip. I also had to return to work because my help cx on me. As stated earlier it was more fishable inside of 150 but I had another agenda!! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Did it, checked it, triple checked it. Still wrong! Dan Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

My older son is evidently more prone to the sea sick deal. Sadly he has been on lake O only 3 times this year and all have ended early cuz of chumming and the only trip last year ended early because of a nasty storm that came in unexpectedly. I hate it for him because he has yet to enjoy the thrills of lake O fishing! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Got blown off this morning! Not sure which report to believe anymore. I listened to NOAA while on the water and it was stated to be blowin around 5-8 out of sw. Well the white caps and big rollers seemingly out of the west led me to question the validity of the report, that and my barfing 12 year old. Me and my 17.5' Lund tucked our tail and headed in. Super calm near shore but that isn't where the fish are!! Gotta find one that is 32.06 to beat My buddy Brett! Lol Better luck next time! Dan Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Not the day I was hoping for primarily because of the wind ( that was W/NW not south). Anyway finally dropped gear in around 150 fow before I finish setting second rigger I see the other has released. Get on it and the drag is singing! Passed to my son that was already feeling sea sick. After a decent battle I netted a nice king at 20#. I finish setting my 5-6 rod spread and trolled to sodus. Didn't move a rod other than to switch out gear. Pulled gear at 1030 or so after my son got sick. Rollers at 1-3 ft on the way in made for a bumpy ride. Not sure what to do tomorrow? Anyone have suggestions? King hit a mtn dew glow/dew tape spinny with hammer fly. All of my flys are rigged with 22-24 leader should I scrap these and put on longer?

Good going! I bet that gets crazy netting a 20+ king solo. I had a game plan ready to fish this a.m but my fair weather crew lacked interest in dealing with rain...off to work for me. I am gonna try my borrowed hand held radio again and see how it works! I hope to get out next week. Still trying to get my 2 boys(9&11) into a big king!

I have been following this site for some time and have finally decided to join in! I have met some great people, great fishermen, and have learned a ton. I greatly appreciate all of the help I have received and to those of you that post... Thank You! The only draw back of this site is that my tackle bill has become much larger and space on my rig much tighter. I fish mainly Seneca, Keuka, Canandaigua and some Lake O and Erie. My rig, is a black/grey Lund 1700 Fisherman (avatar pic) I certainly plan on sharing info and pix on future trips. See ya on the H2O! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
