Seneca 8/9/11

[Trolling Keuka]

Launched from Severne about 5:30am. I was going to be a quick trip because the rain was on the way. Set the rods and headed south. Stayed between 150 FOW and 400 FOW. Lot of bait from 30' - 70' No takers so I headed north and picked up 1 decent laker 50' down with a green dolphin spin Dr and big weenie hot mess fly. Got north of the launch and the fish and bait were gone. Headed south again and the same rigger fires...no one home. Get the rod reset and the dipsy divers gets hammered...no one home. Its getting dark out so I head north and pick up a decent landlock on the same rigger but at 65' now. Skies kind of get bright so I decide to stick it out a little longer. Push out to 300' and then decide it's time to go and the rigger fires once again. A few good runs and I thinking this is no Keuka laker that I'm accustom to. Gain some line back at out it goes again. Gain it back and out it goes again. Finally the fish hits the surface and I'm able to get the rainbow to the net. Wow! Got dark out so I decided to call it a quick morning. Weeds were not too bad and the fleas were ok.
