Fished Keuka Sunday for a few hours, mainly perch fishing but caught a whole bag..lakers, pickerel, smallies....including this beauty. I know Keuka has Browns in it but never boated one. Not a bad one to start with. My good friend is the lucky angler!post-150515-14618145378581_thumb.jpg

When we fish Keuka, I always keep a stickbait rod rigged for casting to the occasional swirls we see on the surface. They're usually browns. Nice fish!

Good fish :)  At an earlier point in time the state record brown came from the south end of Keuka.  There were smaller browns in the Keuka Outlet even back in the 60's. In recent years the lakers have apparently taken over the lake and the browns, landlocks and rainbows have been rarely caught compared with years past. Back in the eighties and nineties some of the locals used to get browns and rainbows as well as lakers pulling copper on bottom at the northern (Penn Yan) section. Good to see a brown come out of there....maybe there is some hope after all.
