RUFF RIDER Sodus Live Report Aug 23 - Sep 2

[TOP SECRET]

Ahhhh the sweet sound of the word vacation!  We are headed up to Sodus for over a week of fishing to attempt to land the LOC winner!  We have a coworker/friend of ours coming out this weekend, so hopefully the fish cooperate! The weather looks like it might not cooperate tomorrow morning, but we'll give it a go if we can.  Otherwise, it might be a good day for breakfast and then afternoon fishing.  Everything I've heard, the fish are still out deep with a few stagers in that <100ft range.

 

The lake looks beautiful right now, let's hope it looks like that for most of the week!

 

 

Here's part two of my two coworkers fishing with us last weekend.  Couldn't ask for nicer weather or better fishing!

 

 

Good luck to everyone out there this weekend, let's see that 40lber on the LOC board!

Nick,

 

We did good last night around 250 FOW. Only out about 75-90 minutes but went 2 for 2 on Showtime Blue/Hammer Fly out 300 on Mag diver #2 setting.

 

Probably see you tonight but if not, see you tomorrow.

Our new fly type to try this weekend... we called it a "dog's eye fly" or "ruffed up fly", RUFY for short. It's a small LED with a fly skirt over it. Anyone who fished the Salmon Slam this year got one. I'm hoping it will help turn those fish on that come off the bottom right at dark!

[Adk1]

Yeehaw!

Yup! you Gos Starcraft Islander! IT can take it!

[TOP SECRET]

Yeah cause you really need it to be like glass so you dont get bounced around too much in that boat..

Wow, Last night it was 50 degrees down about 85 out in 250 FOW. 

 

Is that a true 100 down or your downrigger 100 down? Which is actually about 80 down
