Ruff Rider - Sodus - Sat 6/12 - midday

[TOP SECRET]

The fishing in Sodus remains dead. The thunderstorms wouldn't let us out early, but we got out from 11-3pm. There were bait pods in 120fow, 160fow, and 200fow. I didn't mark a single hook with them though. Normally this time of year there are a few steelies to be had, but I couldn't find them. It got snotty around 2 and we packed it up and trolled in. The fleas started to show up a bit on the divers, so it won't be long now.

Out of the people I talked to there was the occasional coho/small king (5lbs) caught out in 250 fow. But for most Sodus continues to be dead water. Hopefully the fish will find the bait soon. Be back at it in a couple of weeks.

Hey Brian,

Hey Guys, This is Dave, my boat is "Sea Note" I'll be out in Sodus this coming weekend, I have some cousins from Canada coming down and I really hope I can find a few for them to pull in. I'm friends with Captain Mike on the Orca charter and will be checking with him to see where he's finding them if he is. I'll give a shout Sat AM and see who's around. I have been working the Hamlin/ Sandy Creek area and it's slow out there too, just 1 rainbow for several trips out.

Best of luck.

I won't be out this weekend, but good luck. A bunch of guys will probably still be on Ch9.

We're looking to get out Sat/Sun AM out of Port Bay to try to get an early fish on the LOC board. Give us a shout and we'll let you know if we're doing much. I'll be doing my fish dance all week to summon the kings our way!
