    Run a mix and see what fish want. I almost always have a uv spoon in water. either FLT stuff or stinger "UV". they catch in all conditions for me.

    i have an 898 h bird( i think thats the model) and have had similar issues but inconsistent. i have had the unit for around 5 years. try manually setting the bottom depth rather than having on autodepth. That seemed to help the most. aside from that fiddle w sensitivity settings. does it happen more when there are waves hitting the transom? thats when mine gets screwy.

    I snagged something with a dipsey about 4-5 miles west of wilson in roughly 200' fow or so back in May. Fortunately I only lost the fly. Glad it wasnt a rigger that snagged! For a number of seconds i thought i had the derby winner on! oh well.

    Mixed bag dominated by lakers. Roughly 15/17.. biggest was 16# king, 12# laker. only 1 steelhead. fished 60-250. steelie came out of deeper water on a split shot rig. Boated a laker on same rig and others on down to 100'. bait all over esp inside of 150 or so with more in tighter. 7 color pulling carmel dolphin took the bigger king. other fish on frostbite, chx wing, gator, ssw, alewife and purple gator. better bite was early. 16# ran so far i could not see the yellow off shore inline attached. with 12# leader i was not willing to tighten drag down. after i got the board in "rod ninja"' took over.

    Definitely a tough couple days of fishing out there! Have to say canandaigua is probably the most unpredictable lake i fish. One day its hot and the next .. not. Knowing it was gonna blow saturday i decided to bag prefishing friday.. save energy and gas.. Saturday I set up with no clear game plan of what, where, and how, but figured i would start south of german bros. and troll north... set up in 90' roughly and had a fish on before the second rod was set. ended up getting a 9 rod spread out consisting of ff on 2 dipsey and 2 riggers, 2 riggers with spoons, and 3 high lines using cores. picked away at the lakers boating around 16 fish most of which on flasher fly. the highlight of the day happened around 4pm half way down lake on the east side when a rigger running a ff combo popped. I got to the rod and before pulling out of rod holder I am reeling up what seemed like 50' of slack line but then it started to load up. I had a pretty good idea that it was a decent fish.. at least better than the 4-5 # fish we were getting. After a predictable "battle" the net slips under our biggest fish of the day which at weigh in was 9.96#. sadly we went back out after weighing in but skunked out. Should have just gone home and slept! Sunday was another story. pretty much the same approach as Saturday with drastically dif results. boated 3 fish for the day biggest 6.5. saw bait, awesome hooks at varying depths, threw a vast array of gear at them but nuthin. I am sure the full sun and pleasure craft assault did none of us any favors today! Had a great time fishing with my crew and collaborating with my buddy on the blue lund! Kind of wanna come down for some brown and bow redemption but its time to get back on lake O!! Congrats to Brett on P 3 on the laker board and to everyone else that placed! -Dan-

    all kings off riggers 41-95 ft down over 100-120 bottom. lakers on bottom or roughly 300' wire 2 setting, skippys and bows on 2,5,7 color. without a probe i just drop gear where i am marking it on the sonar. Good luck!

    Where to begin..... Had a last minute notion to trailer to Sandy but got going too late to trailer there. Next I wanted to launch out of Genny to avoid ibay launch circus. Durand blocked off for soap box derby... ibay it is! motor towards ship builders and set up in 75 w nne troll. had 5 rods in when i heard a ticking noise from engine area. slide out the doghouse and immediately see that the wire from coil yo dist cap is arking. shut down the boat. My buddy ace mechanic and 1/2 Mcguyver was assessing the situation as i pull the gear in. in the process of assessing things the coil wire ended in two pieces. thankfully Brett was able to delicately strip the wire and make a new connection and get us going again. So get set up and at this point around 115-120 fow i think trolled out. to 200 with a few releases and get 2 steel and one laker on deck. not thrilled with action where we were, we turned and trolled in and could not get anything going at this point and in around 140fow. I reached out to some LOU guys and was told 100-120 was where best action was. Yup they were right as we got into those depths the screen brightened up and we were now into a somewhat steady pick. i was pretty pleased with the bite considering it was 230 when we picked up... not sure why i am getting up at 400am. when i always seem do better after 12p. ended up roughly around 16/20..boating around 5 decent kings in 10-16# range. had bunch of hits on wire that wouldnt hook up. picking lines had skippys on 3 of 4 high lines that were on who knows how long ssw, gator, nbk were working as usual. A team effort for sure a big thanks to everyone that helped, esp. Brett for keeping us going... i would have packed up and headed in ..lol

    Another amazing trip for you and your crew! You guys have it dialed in for sure. Wish i would have gone out but the home/boat punch list was getting out of control. My PY is almost ready for action! Nice job again Dan!
