Ruff Rider Live Sodus Report 24 July 2016

[TOP SECRET]

Well, we have been up all weekend, but between preparing for next week's Salmon Slam and the nasty wind we have had, we haven't gotten out yet. The forecast for tomorrow looks good though.

Reports have been mixed with temps down deep, but up higher in 250fow. Kings are around, but still not in great numbers. The evening bite has been better than the morning bite, likely due to the full moon.

We have added a new pink pole to our boat (as well as 3 other boats) for a bit of a side bet... we hope to live stream a lot of it tomorrow on the Lake Ontario Fishing - Ruff Rider facebook page, but will also post a video here afterward as well.

Haha awesome!

I have a feeling that if a 20lb king hits this thing, it will just implode

[Sk8man]

Holy crap....I've seen everything now. You land one on that and you deserve a medal

[KilliansRed]

Barbie rod for the win!

Getting very bumpy from the east and it shut the fish off. Out in 230fow marking bait, no hooks. Folks in 150fow are marking hooks, but no bites either.

[TOP SECRET]

Well the good news is for the first time this year we are marking consistent bait here in Sodus. That should get the kings moving this way this week!

BARBIE ROD RIPPIN!!!

Great screen from 190-150fow with big hooks down 100. I havent been keeping up with flea cleaning, so my lines are probably loaded. Pulling soon to head in anyway.
