canandaigua trout derby

[fisherdude]

day 1 from the north.....  was on the lake setting up by 5:15 am, wasn't to bad for the wind at first . the skies look bad to the north of the city . the fish didn't seem to care they were biting . around  9:00 am my buddy got a call from  his son in law the ovens are down at cams pizza shop in pen yann , an hour later the call came back in need help so we picked up and headed back in. we did 5 lake trout 2 bows and I dropped a big laker at the boat , man did that hurt we stopped at the scale and weighed the bows biggest was 4.7 trying day 2 from the south with 20 mph winds don't expect much to happen , but you never know

Thanks folks much appreciated.  It was a female and if it hadn't been the derby I would have released her but what a great fighter she was on ten pound test line and light gear and I am blessed with a son who is great with the net
