Seneca this weekend?

[Seneca Slammer]

1st weekend for me this season:-) Put the boat in the water for a couple hours yesterday to check out the new equipment additions (great lakes planer masts & pro troll speed control) and everything works Great! Any suggestions what part of the lake to start with the water temps still this low?

We fished last weekend out of Lodi and headed up the east side. Never moved a rod, then went to the west side in front of Dresden and hooked up on two nice Lakers. Both on riggers.

Well it was a gorgeous afternoon with the lake like glass but nothing doing with the fish. I went up the east side from Lodi 1/2 way to Sampson from 40' to 150' and didn't mark a fish! Think tomorrow it'll be the opposite and head south on the west side. Still much better than working

Got the skunk today on the shakedown cruise out of Severne. Everything worked great , back at it soon. Ran rapalas on otter boards, and on downriggers, also had a dipsy rod out the back. Nothing set deeper than 45 feet

How is temp on top. Your way ahead of me ,,boat still in the barn without any gear in it YET.....

[Sk8man]

Fished the north end from 7 AM -12:30 PM without a touch 6 rods out everything from leadcores,downriggers with sliders, boards, wire rigs, and toplines and depths from 25 to 180 of water east and west sides but only fishing for silvers. Most of temp was 38.5 ish but found a pocket of 42 degree water but it had zero fish in it. Only marked a few fish mostly small ones within top 40 ft of water or big lakers hugging bottom for dear life. Spoke with multiple people and friends out there and they had same result. Ultra crystal clear water with east wind and minimal chop on surface = recipe for no fish. Some thick weeds and junk suspended in a couple bands on the east side that didn't help out much either. Just nice to get out there and have everything working perfectly on the boat and equipment. On the downside -the Chamber of Commerce launch is now a complete disaster after the construction as they placed curbing in the worst possible places, narrowed up the place where you back in, and have even tighter parking availability....what a waste of space. I can see the fist fights coming during the derby already

Buddy of mine didn't move a rod on Cayuga today too, the switch in wind seemed to turn in the bite at Owasco today it was about 1:30, beautiful day out there.

It sounds as though you did better than anyone I talked with John on Seneca or Canandaigua. Nice going
