Lake Ontario Fishing Report 8/711/08

This past weekend was tough for us,  plain and simple. Onew hear, one there. BUT!! Today boats caught 3, 4 and even 6 salmon on there AM trip. Finally it appears it is going to start.

 The salmon are in 100 to 300 feet of water, 90 to 140 feet down. E-chips and apin Dr's with Atomik flies and a few spoons are doing the job. It seems that everything is working, you just have to find them.

We spent the trip in the short water as the Brown bite was on for us and you just can't leave fish to find fish. Whenever we turned to the depths to find a salmon, the rod went off with a trout. Not a bad thing As the temperature was coming up we even managed to hit two kings in the short water and boated one of them. A nice day after a late start due to more lightning.

 Oneida Lake anglers are continuing to do very well walleye and bass.  The deep and shallow water are both producing. Shackelton Shoals, Dutchman’s Bar and Lewis Point have been especially active.

A Few pictures from the last few days.

The skunk boys showed up only to turn and go home as the wind an thunder storms hurt us bad on Friday :(

Bill is so eager to get into the river, he wore his waders to stay dry on our lake trip?
