Good ol Seneca 8-4

[cdgn troller]

Met fishing partner Dan at the Chamber at 5:15. Made decision to head to Sampson and launch. Pointed her south and it wasn't long before the 3 hour workout began. We had a great day back on Seneca after fishing Lake O for the last month. We ended up with over 20 fish by 8:30, doubles and one triple, hardly ever had all six rods into the water. The browns, bows, and lakers were on the feed. We ended up with 8 browns, biggest 6lbs, 4 bows, biggest just over 5lb, 2 landlocks, both around 18", and the rest were lakers with the biggest almost 11lbs. The 300in copper, 90' rigger and the 68' rigger we the work horses today. Lakers liked mountaindew sd followed by bw filthy Frankie on thethe 91 rigger. The coppers were pulling bf sea sick waddler and uv alewife. The other riggers we experimented with a variety of lures. Landlocks came on cheaters with green scorpions. Browns shut off around 9, but the lakers were none stop. Pulled lines around 11:30 with fish count around 30. Bait was insane with arcs all over them today. Weeds were very minimal and fleas were none existent.

Great results! What was the wind like out there this morning  This afternoon the Canandaigua Lady seemed to struggle a bit leaving the dock at the north end here with a full load of passengers   That wind was gusting pretty good this afternoon....

It was a stiff nnw with a good 2-3's. We the trolled with them and then motored back and went with them again. Trolled into he waves for about 45 minutes before calling it a day. Bumpy ride back to Sampson!

I was at Taughannock on Cayuga yesterday afternoon for a post-wedding event.  The windsurfers were zipping right along, even catching a little air off a few of the bigger waves.  Did see one boat pulling a tube- now that didn't seem like fun!

 

Nice report too, good fishing!
