Late summer tips for Owasco

[Stunsm]

Hello!  The community gave me some fantastic advice last fall about trolling on Owasco, and it definitely leveled up my fishing game, but the techniques that seem to work so well in a month or so aren't giving me much luck lately.  Can anyone offer some general advice for this time of year (no need to give up your secret spots, I get it!)  I generally get out in the mornings and am usually trolling, going back and forth between spoons on copper rigs or mono/downriggers, or leadcore/light copper on planer boards.  Most days lately I'll land a just barely keeper size rainbow or two, usually in around 30-40' over 100' on a spoon on the leadcore, so I know that at least something is biting.  I've been thinking about targeting something besides trout for a change, but I'm happy just to get a few bites when I get out.  Thanks in advance!

I'm not an expert on Owasco by any means but I enjoy fishing it. If you want to target a mixed bag including bass and pike I like trolling sticks and spoons at various depths following the contours and off of points. I troll deep when targeting lakers and shallower for rainbows. Good luck.

Thanks!  I've been mostly trolling spoons, or dragging them along the bottom.  I'll try trolling sticks and see if I have any luck.
