  1. Yeah he moved he is in Beaver Dams now. 44 Post Creek Rd, Beaver Dams NY 14812
  2. This is the number you will be looking for on the north latitude. I know on my onx app there are different settings for the coordinates so you have to be sure its on the right one or numbers won't hold out. I think DMS is what you want. Google maps would have it to but it does'nt hold out on my phone, my phone settings must be wrong.
  3. Went out of Sandy today with a few buddies. Lake was flat and forecast was good so I pointed the starcraft fishmaster to the north and started out at about the 27 line. Never did ofshore before on my boat. Lines in at 9:45 had a good hit on dipsie with meat before we were done setting up but he come of right away. About the 28 line the other dipsie goes with a big fish after a long fight we got a new best for my boat a 24.8 lb king. Spent the rest of the day around the 30 line with about 6 more kings mostly smaller ones. Also lost a nice steelhead as a net job went bad. Riggers were set 70-95 down. Dipsies out 260-320 on a 2.5 setting. Coppers were quite all spoon bite after the first hit. Lines out at 1:45 A fun day with steady action an finally beat our previous best 23 lbs from few years ago. Good luck an have fun
  4. I havn't been out in a while, but I'll be going tomorrow. By the sounds of it my hopes are'nt to high but we'll see. Might consider running offshore if the lake is flat.
  5. Lakers are definitely starving in Keuka. Anymore a 4 to 5 lber is a trophy there, when you cut them open the stomach is empty or then a few small 2-3 inch perch in. I do think there is a lot of lakers in the lake though according to the fish finder the bottom can be stacked even though we can't jig as many up as we could 5-10 years ago. Hopefully DEC or someone can get it figered out or stock some fish that do well, maybe walleye would, I don't know.... Because right now the laker fishing is not good unless you like small skinny fish. Bass on the other hand are doing well. On a side note Seneca seems to be coming around, lampreys seem to be hurting the browns last time out one had a 20 inch lamprey attached ( about the size of a keuka lake laker uhg..) and another had 2 attached.
  6. Wow! You keep getting better at this!
  7. Thats awesome! I have jigged many fingerlakes lakers. Never tried kings but one of these days I will.
  8. Yeah thats interesting to hear, I figured they must have just gotten tight lipped when we were out. I noticed a few other boats heading north as we were, out to 200 fow then back in just searching i guess.
  9. Left the creek at 9:30 started in 90 fow on a north troll had some marks in there but kept going north to 215 fow with blank screens out there. came back in to 100 fow never had a hit. Finally gave in and laker fished getting 5 of them. But even they wern't very cooperative. tempature was 45 degrees down 60 the farther out you went the deeper the temp was. Kinda a humbling day with not one king hit. Guess I gotta start jigging Lol..... Ran spoons and deep rig tackle meat rigs. Gambler rigs for the lakers. Packed up at 2:00 with rain coming. Did have some good marks down 50-60 in 90 to 140 fow
  10. We were out from Sandy 9:30 to 1:30 A little slower for us today. Fished in 80 to 110 for a while dropping a screamer on artificial meat an picking up a laker. Headed north after a while an got a double when we hit 145 fow both mid teen kings. But then it shut of again went back in to 80 to finish the day with another laker and a shaker.
  11. Thanks for the report. Sounds like nice weather the next days. Hoping to get out this weekend.
  12. Took some of nephews out today. Lines in at 9:30 out at 2:00 with a rain delay in between. 5 kings 2 steelhead 2 browns 1 laker. The one brown was a nice chunky 10 lbs. We fished mostly in 90 to 120 fow. Riggers down 65 to 80. Dipsy out 230 with artificial meat took quite a few shots but also dropped quite a few on that one. 300 an 400 copper took fish as well. Had a heavy rain storm come through that we hung out closer to shore for a bit. Does anyone know what to do so you don't get disturbance on the fish finder from motor, when I'm running it higher when going against waves it really screws up my graph? Bottom picture. I do have the noise level on high. 20240706_104841.heic 20240706_130134.heic
  13. Sounds like a lot of warm water. Where you marking any fish down in that 47 to 55 degree water?
  14. Started at 8:30 in 110 fow . I think we just missed the morning bite. 15lb king as soon as second line was in. then not a hit till 12:00 then we had steady action till we pulled lines at 3:30 110 to 120 fow was best for us had some doubles, riggers 50 to 60 down 12 kings to the boat 3 steelhead. choppy waves out of northeast.
  15. Its good to know someone was getting them. I'll just have to go again LOL!! I just ordered some deep rig tackle herring strips so I'm looking forward to using them. We were marking them 90-100 down but they were'nt intersted in our riggers.
