No fishing for us today as we are headed to Canada for the day. Folks out there are just setting up, but finding colder water than the last few days with 50deg down 90.

Not to leave everyone empty handed, here is some video from yesterday's trip. Please excuse my language...

Nice video! Hey Nick, you might want to give your hits a good quick jerk to set the hook, especially on your rigger shots. The kings' jaws are so much harder now we give a pretty hard hook set to sink that barb in. Just food for thought, although I don't know if your rods can take the abuse!

Nice going this past weekend Finders Keepers.. 2 kings on the board.

Thanks Steve! Two big females loaded with eggs. Rrred echip with an Atommik Hypnotist fly has been hot the last several outings taking multiple hits each trip - makes the staging kings hit out of aggression. Hopefully we can find that 34 lb'er we've been looking for by Next Monday!

A great day in Canada with the family shopping in Niagara-on-the-lake and hitting the icewine trails.

On the way back, we stopped in Wilson at the Wilson Boathouse Restaurant. We miss not going to Wilson each spring, so it was nice to get back.

And of course, had to stop at Brownies for some parkerhouse ice cream!

Let's go fishing!

I think the fish are punishing me for not fishing yesterday. Have literally not marked a fish since before 8am.

It has been pretty slow inshore at Sodus for weeks now. I keep hoping it will pick up!

[TOP SECRET]

Fog is getting thick out here!

[ITS A FISHAL]

Hopefully they start setting up soon. They seemed to be going deep then coming shallow. Then back out deep. It's like they are confused. Lol. Been taking some dark ones in warmer waters so somethings about to give.

Hoping to give it a try out of Sodus tomorrow morning so I hope things start to pick up sooooon

Just saw my first bait pod of the morning, down 80 over 200fow. Boat next to us just picked up to run offshore, might be a smart move.
