Yeah, we were kicking ourselves all day on that one breaking off and we’re thinking that was probably a big silver fish with the intensity of that hit. I will try working right on bottom next trip if the bite slows down later in the morning, thanks for the advice. Next trip is already being planned for a few weeks and I report how we do.

Yeah, I was very surprised that they weren’t producing either. I did switch them to spoons later in the morning and did take 1 good hit, on for a few seconds but it didn’t stick. Based on the chinook diver chart I should have been hitting 55 -90 ft down. I will try some more variation on lead lengths/depth next time and try to get a few more color combos, but those are the only 2 I have right now. thanks

After reading all the reports on here for the last year and a half I finally decided to make the 2 1/2 hour drive and give Cayuga a try. Brought a couple buddies who have only trolled a couple times in their lives. On the water by 7 and headed home around 3. Went 6 for 9 all lakers, with the majority coming between 7-10 am. Headed north from Long point and fished over 80-150 ft. Best action seemed to be over 100-120 and down 60-90. Speed anywhere from 2.2 to 2.7 gps. Was mainly a downrigger /spoon bite with 5 coming off the riggers and one on a 5 color. Lost a good one within the first ten minutes on a 3 color, hit so hard it submerged the planer board for a solid 5 -10 seconds. Line broke about 5 seconds after the board resurfaced. Really wish we could have seen that one. Could not seem to get anything going on the dispsies, which surprised me as the majority of the reports I have read on Cayuga usually have dipsies being one of the best presentations. I ran two size 5 chinook divers with 8 inch spinny and fly on both. Ran them anywhere from 130 to 210 out. 1 was green dot spinny with green hammer fly and other was wonderbread with a mirage fly. 12 foot leaders from diver to spinny, and 22 inch lead from spinny to fly. Anybody have any suggestions what might be wrong with this setup? Or is it just one of those deals where some days dipsies take the majority and some days downriggers? Overall, for our first time on the lake we were thrilled and learned a lot, we will definitely be back in a few weeks. Hopefully, we can find some silver bites next time. We ran two 3 color, two 5 color and sliders on both riggers, all with small sticks spoons hoping to find some silver fish but no luck. Next time we will try to be on the water by 6 as the bite definitely seemed best in the first few hrs. Any suggestions on something different to try for some silvers or what to do different with the dipsies would be appreciated.

Sliders getting stuck on leader connection?
Car-Lee514 replied to Car-Lee514's topic in Finger Lakes Discussion
I have always just trusted the little barrel swivels more than a line to line connection. But I will give those knots a shot. Thanks -
Sliders getting stuck on leader connection?

That’s what I was afraid of, I will just stick with free sliders with a bigger swivel. Thanks -
Sliders getting stuck on leader connection?
Car-Lee514 replied to Car-Lee514's topic in Finger Lakes Discussion
Ok, I will upsize my swivels on the line connection end to make sure I don’t have a problem. Thanks Still not sure about the black and red fixed cheater clips that “troubles” sells on here. I’m still a little worried they will catch on that connection point as they are designed to grip on the line as they slide down? I will probably be sticking with free sliders this trip anyway to try to stay up in the silvers depth range. -
I was just rigging up my downrigger rods with some new line for a trip to Cayuga next week and had a question on my setup. I have always just run a 10 lb mono mainline directly to my lure. However, I decided to rig these up with 12 lb mono mainline with a 10 lb flouro leader. The leader is 20 ft long and connected to the mainline using a Spro micro barrel swivel. I am now a little concerned how my sliders will slide past the mainline connection without getting stuck. Depending on the day I sometimes use a standard fixed slider with ball bearing swivel on each end and sometimes use the fixed slider clips (black and red rubber ones) I am assuming the regular free sliders will slide past this connection without a problem, but not sure about the black rubber slider clip. Has anybody had any experience with this issue. Will those sliders clips slide over a micro swivel connection? Will the clip get stuck on that connection and create a stress point or cause an issue when reeling in a fish on the mainline? Any thoughts? Thanks

We ran into the same problem in July when we fished Indian lake (about an hr. East of forth lake, but similar fishing). Marked a ton of bait but did not move a rod in two days. Seems like it was a great year in the adirondacks for smelt. Do you happen to have any slide divers with you? In previous years they have always produced well for me on the ADK’s. 50-70 foot leads of the diver with small spoons or smelt imitating plugs (2 1/2 to 3 1/2 inch spoons and sticks). Best colors for us have been chartreuse/green, blue, and copper for the Lakers, and orange for the landlocks. Best luck on landlocks has been from 35 to 55 ft down and faster speeds. Another thing that has worked well for me up there is fixed cheaters 10 ft above your mainline. For some reason the cheater seems to take the majority of the hits compared to the mainline lure.
