Day 1
Slow out of bed this am. Some jerk named Evan Williams and his friend Jack Daniels kept me up way too late. Focused on land locks to day and cane up with a big nothing. Saw lots of bait balls in 160-175 f.o.w. and quite a few dead alewives floating on the surface. Not sure what that’s all about. Dredging the bottom for lakers tomorrow.

Last week my divers (standards and mags) were out anywhere from 90’ to 250’ depending on where fish were showing on graph or down temps for that day (Cayuga Lake). Most of the bigger fish came in that 80’ down range.

More landlocked salmon this morning 50-60 ft down over 300-400 f.o.w. All small, no keepers

Good evening of fishing last night. Found some bigger landlocked salmon out deep 65 ft down over 550 f.o.w. largest was around 3 lbs. All taken on mixed veggies spoon again.  A curiosity - all the fish I've caught in the past  three  days have been on a north troll. Not so much as a single  release on a southward troll. Any theories?

Struck out this morning

Glad you are having some success..sure don't have to worry about boat traffic,  do you?😉

For the trillion dollars of real estate and boats, this place sure is empty

Nice work, glad to see some success. Were there many with lamprey wounds?

Looks like you've got them dialed in!  10 for 12 is a good morning and those silvers are a lot of fun to catch.

I didn’t see any. Very healthy looking. Both fish were released

Nice fish, sounds like a good vaca so far

[twring23]

Overall a good week on Seneca.  Good weather and caught enough fish to keep things interesting.   Plenty of solitude and beautiful scenery what an awesome part of the country we live in.  Well its time to pack up and go back to the grind. Good fishing to all

Tom, looks like my tutelage played off. I am far from a master but am ecstatic that I was able to help you figure them out. I would trade in that lake O trip you owe me for a couple of days like you had on Seneca. I will even cook dinner for you and the wife! I know she would love the company.
