Seneca 2-5-11

[lakebound88]

Well...Where to begin, Bob, Joe, Rod and I fished Seneca, hitting the water at 7 am, well 7:10 thanks to a late arriver Anyways, the fishing started off great, from the dock, to the end of the day. We trolled west side, fished Cores, wires, copper, and riggers. After dealing with so many cookie cutters up high last week, we decided to go deeper. Well it paid off, we caught the top 10 biggest salmon ive ever gotten on Seneca in one day.. Biggest was 8.5, with alot of cookies as well and "good eaters", we fished till nearly dark, in the rain, sleet and snow. However, flasher flies and Leadcores produced out biggest, the rigger wasnt too far behind with size too.. I cant BS you guys on this, we pushed over forty fish, and released all fish other than the ones below

Hope to be out tomorrow

Pictures do the talking...

Nice

I planned to meet the crew on the Lilboat at T-Falls for the afternoon troll today on Cayuga but with the afternoon weather forecast looking like it did, decided to not make the trip.

Hope to get out to Seneca sometime when the weather looks good.

Thanks for the post.

Question, do you find the Atlantics are getting bigger? What is in their stomachs?

[jason]

they eat sawbellies....no they're not getting any bigger....its just that more guys are starting to realize that you can troll in the winter and landlocks are a lot easier to catch in the winter time, so they are targeting the landlocks....lead cores and top lines will catch you more fish, but fishing deeper will catch you bigger ones...

we pulled out a 4 inch sawbelly out of the mouth of one of the fish we caught yesterday. They seemed a lot fatter yesterday than they did a week ago too. Even the cookie cutters had a full stomach. Beautiful fish! The colors and the markings are amazing on these fish!

What another great day on the water!! Thanks Capt bob, nick and joe for an awesome time!

Just incredible guys!!

It's cool to see fish displayed from Seneca and the LLs are bigger than the lakers!!

I'm sure with reduced boat traffic the bigger ones are also less spooky right now.

How do you guys stay warm out there?? wow

[Frisco]

Plan to be there tomorrow, any of you guys going to be there?

[rshubuck]

The fishing is incredible on Seneca this time of year and the anglers that have the endurance to face the harse climate will be rewarded with high numbers of fish, a bag of different species, and some of the largest LLs and browns the lake as to offer. Releasing healthy fish is a must to keep our waters full of these beautiful cold water fish!

We will be out there this weekend for sure! Hope to see you guys on the water... we will be in the 18 foot blue fin with the big rod rack and planers out! Good luck to all (although luck is not really needed!!)
