Olcott 8-17

[Tim Bromund]

On the water at 0600, ran out to the 25 line and trolled north. Good temps had 45 down 80. Trolled out to the 30 line, steady pick of small/teenage kings and steelies. Outside of the 28 line pretty much all steel including several over 10. Turned around and trolled back south to the 23 line. Inside the 25 line started getting into better kings again ending the day with a 28 lber that fought like it was mid 30's.

 

Riggers at 50 and 80, divers at 240 and 300 and 400 copper all took multiple shots. Nbk stingray on the 50 rigger and mountain dew spinny with green krinkle howie on the 80 rigger were both steady producers. Nuclear green spinny and hammer fly on the 300 diver and nuclear green chip with green glow Atommik on the 240. Meat rig with BD24 MC Rocket on the 400 copper went 5 times.

 

Over 20 bites on the day including the 28 lb king and 11lb 4 oz steelie that both went on the leader board, at least temporarily. Will post pics later. Beautiful day on the water

Beautiful day on the lake

 

11 lb 4 oz steelhead

 

Not much left of this green crinkle howie fly, but it still keeps taking fish

Nice steelie WTG Tim. That's the same fly (similar anyway) we had all the king action on yesterday too Les

I think I could probably fish all year with just a mountain dew spinny with that green crinkly howie and a nuclear green spinny with a hammer fly and catch all the fish I want.  Those 2 combos have taken probably 80% of my flasher fly bites over the past several seasons.

Exact same set up for the last 4 years for me as well. If I had only rig to fish, that would be my choice for western Lake Ontario!
