SENECA 8-31-13 Monster Bow

[Iron Duke]

Fished out of Watkins with Joe (Keepin It Reel) my son , Bill and Butch.... We setup shop right out of the canal ... We ran cores coppers dipsys and riggers... Didnt take long and we had our first fish on and bring a nice 4 lb brown to the boat and the fish just continue to come from there... We get up the lake a bit and Bam !! 400 copper going and bang!! there goes the 12 color core rippin line!! DOUBLED UP!! We get a 4lb Salmon and 6lb laker to the boat and attempt to get reset after all the mayhem.... We finnaly get a breather for a few and the 250 dipsys takes off like a big salmon strike but pulls lots of drag, I am lucky enough that it happen to be my turn so I get to fight this one, after a lengthy strong fight we get a glimps of what we think is gonna be a decent Landlock and nope 9.5 bow in the net.... I tried hard to revive her but couldn't get her to go so in the box she goes.... Finger Lakes Tackle Spoons and Big Weenie Flys did all our damage today... Flt blue uv alewive and death from above were our best spoons by far and Big Weenie Seneca Ghost and Filthy Frankie were our hot flys.. We had an awesome morningon the water .. Me and Joe tried to figure it out at the end and we went 22 for 24 with a great class of fish and some absolute beautiful silver fish... Hoping to back out tonight if the storms don't pop up....

Couple nice little football browns here in the pics.. Pic of the first one slipping out of Joes hands and one of me fighting a bow...

Went out this morning with Bob Fuller ( FLT ) had a good bite going after we found them but no browns so we moved......after 10:30am bite went dead..... we boxed three lakers , and a salmon....... released three nice bows at the boat .... lost two good fish and one or two more......with three releases and noone home....... ran three riggers with ALL FLT spoons........ Bob Barker was real good  and a glowfrog was also that did thr three lakers then I moved it up out of laker land and it did a bow and we lost a bow or salmon on it......REEL FUN DAY........ thanks for coming over to deliver my spoon order and for the EXTRA stuff you left me Bob !!!!!!!
