First time out on the river. I lost a big one at the boat.

JT I've been chasing stream trout, panfish and getting ready for smallmouths on Sat. I decided it was time to see if the eyes were around and I guess there are some to be had. Trolling with very heavy bottom bouncers and stick baits is my most productive method but definitely not the most fun way to fish. I tried bucktails and jigging spoons but they didn't produce for me today, I will continue to experiment and perhaps find other productive methods.

Nice work Kevin. I use that same stick above for trout here on the Fingers

[justtracytrolling]

Gotta be tough when you combine structure AND current AND seemingly endless area to target eyes. Of course they are in current breaks, but tough to present any other way than your super heavy bottom bouncers! Good job...must have popeye right forearm!

Yea but sometimes they suspend and I get them on deep divers. Everyday is different with changing wind and current. That's what keeps things interesting.

Id be ok suspended days...but i know the work involved in patterning eyes and thats a tough fishery

So true on the patterning of the eyes. It takes alot of time and patience and gas to keep on them. Way to go Kevin, it is a great fishery as you know.

Kevin......That's a nice fish. Where is your favorite (don't have to b exact) region, say within a mile or so, for hitting those 'eyes in the Larry.....? (I assume it's the St. Lawrence) ....may be taking a 1 to 2 week trip there in mid September between Cape Vincent and Wellesley Is.

Nice fish Kevin.. bummer losing one at the boat though. Leave me a few..I'll be up in a couple of weeks! Good Fishing, Sluggo (Chris)

When I'm fishing locally I fish out of Alex Bay but I trailer my boat downriver to Lisbon and up to Henderson. I fished again this morning and we got skunked except for a couple bass.

I tried down there sun Kevin,only tried jigging also with no results just a couple smallies and a few gobies. This weekend is out but got a four day weekend the following weekend hope to try it again at least a couple mornings and a few nights. Hope to see you down there one of those days.
