Cayuga 9/3

[Nautitroller]

Launched at Taughannock at 6:30. Headed North past boy scout camp. Tried a few different paddles and fly colors today. The fog took a long time to burn off and the water clarity was kinda light pea green. Figured glow might be easier for the fish to see. Rigger with glow dot and yellow green glow fly was on fire! Lots of big Lakers in the 6-9lb class. Caught 14 before 9:30. Trick was to bump bottom in 65-90' They couldn't take it! Had one nice shaker come off, but mostly the rigger with spoons was quiet. Got a bit North of Kidders and pulled the FF combo and decided to try a little faster and shallow (50'), I was rewarded with a nicely colored brown!

As I am writing this I am fishing the chute and my rigger just popped with no one home:angry:

Here are a couple pics, sorry hard to get decent photos out here solo.

Oh, hot lure, FLT angry alewufe..

Nice job nauti. I've done really good the last two times I've been. I was much deeper fow. Been getting nice Lakers just like you. Just not the big brown like you've fought today.

Yes, I had run into a 35' ledge, decided to pull in riggers and quit, the ten color had been dead all day when it buried and it fought really well. I had the same angry alewife on it with a lighter floro leader. Huge lamprey on him too.

Not much for fleas.

The lake was almost glass when I left.

Thank you Bobby, Finger Lakes Tackle rules!!
