sodus 7/23

my friend Craig and i headed out for some salmon action this morning hoping the wind was going to hold off ,as i wanted to put him on some kings instead of seth green fishing for lake trout on the finger lakes . we bang threw the 1 to 3 foot waves to 400 fow set up with the NE wind. ,two riggers with spoons and cheaters , two dipsy with spin doctor and flies. first release with in 15 mins of trolling but gone before we could get to the rod . half hour later a drive bye on the a rigger pulling spoons .( not doing so good ) put another 2 hours in working 450 to 575 fow and not seeing any marks . started to work with the NE wind back in ,when we hit 430 fow the dipsy went off and we landed our first fish of the morning . a smaller king .set back up work the same water over again and did another king on the same dipsy rod pulling a gator SD and hammer fly . adult king ,then that was it for 1 1/2 so i started working back into the inside waters , nothing to show from trolling 400 to 250 fow so i said might as well clean these fish . i open this king up , he is just filled with alewife, i started chumming , so i got this mess cleaning fish and the rigger fires i landed that as my buddy didn't want to get in the blood and guts for another king .i finish cleaning fish and called it a day 3 for 5 today , ever eat fresh salmon eggs , don't they don't taste so good .
