Shake down 5-23-17

Left Bald Eagle and headed east towards the nose, poked around 20-30 fow and saw nothing. Headed  out to deeper water. Turned back towards port and when we hit 200 fow we started marking fish in the top 50 feet. We managed a couple cohos at 40 and 50 feet down and a decent king on a diver out 200 on a 2 setting, NBK Spin Doctor and fly. The interesting thing was that we saw ALOT of marks and bait on bottom 200 feet down. Beyond my capabilities to go that deep. The boat ran great. Overall a beautiful day out there. This is the latest shake down I've ever done in 15 years! Be out on Saturday.

Bait and lots of marks down 200 feet seems to be happening a lot this year and i don't know why.

I know with high pressure the fish are deeper, Are some of you guys fishing that deep?

Nice Report Buddy....... glad to hear that things are running well. I might make a trip to Niagara County on Saturday morning.

I noticed the bait at the bottom too yesterday with fish marked between 30 to 80 fish. The interesting thing is all the cohos I caught were coughing up alewives
