Down Speed: 2.0 - 2.2

Boat Depth: 400 - 600?

Lure Depth: 100 - 125

====================

Stopped in 400 FOW and dropped probe, found 54 degrees down100, so set up on a N troll. Boated 3 small Kings, lost temp so continued N. Waves subsided a bit mid day, was able to run a more consistent spread. Found a pocket of 42 - 48 degree water down 120 somewhere around 500, and set some way points where we saw bait & hooks. After running through them with Spiny/Fly, Dodger/fly, turned around and went back through the waypoints with all spoons and that got the rods moving. First was the 125 rigger, screaming out 600 Ft. of line off the rigger parked at 125 with glow frog SS spoon. Had to thumb the spool to stop his first of 2 big runs. Action was better in the afternoon, went on to boat 2 nice Steelies and 4 more medium Kings on riggers 110 & 125, and wire Mag dipsy, 3 setting out 200 - 250.

All spoon bite, anything with green in it, all DW SS. Got a little bumpy just before the storm moved in, long ride back to port.

Ghostly King just before hitting the smoker last night.

Sounds like you had a great day, Congrats

We are coming up next week and cant wait!!! I was originally going to pull out of Port Ontario but seems the fish are further to the west. Im curious, if we go out of Sodus how far out until we hit deep water? If we pull out of Port Ontario it looks like we will have to go pretty far to hit the deep water.

Anyway, Nice Job!

Nice job skipper!

Deep water is definitely closer out of sodus... 6 miles or so. However I doibt you'll need to go that far out by next weekend. We are out that far now due to the recent rough water that churned up the lake. 220fow was hot for a lot of my friends in Sodus today.
