Today we were joined by Walt, Dan, and Bruce for another day of King Salmon action on Lake Ontario.  We ran quite a ways East and set up in 90 FOW and within a few minutes had our first rip, but after a brief battle, the fish and our fly parted ways.   That fish took a White Double Crush Glow Spin Dr/Sigg's White Crinkle Fly fished 80' down on our downrigger.  After another dropped fish in the waters we were working, we talked to a friend of ours at about 9am who was another 5 miles or so down the lake from us.  He was lighting the fish up and given our relatively blank screen we pulled lines and ran down to his waypoints.  Within a minute or two of setting up we hooked up and landed a nice King:



That fish took a Green Double Crush Glow Spin Dr./Sigg's Green Hypnotist fly down 82' on our Cannon's.  A few more minutes later and we were hooked up again and from then on we just made loops in that one area and we had double digit hookups in there in a two hour period.  For a while there it was almost fast and furious....let's call it entertaingly steady.  I sure wish we had gotten there about three hours eariler!  Today's best color was definitely either a white Spinny or E-Chip pulling a Sigg's White Crinkle or Sigg's Glow Ghost Fly, and the fish seemd to want those presentations trolled SLOWLY....1.6-2.0mph down speeds on our Depth Raider were our best speeds.  It took me a few minutes after we got set up to figure that out but as I was almost springting by a couple of boats that were hooked up it hit me....slow down Bill!  Once we did we got em to go pretty regularly.  We also tooks a few shots on the above mentioned Green set-up and a Chartreuse E-Chip/Sigg's Mtn. Dew fly, but White was mostly what they wanted today.  Best depths were 80-110 FOW for us and we were a long ways East of Fair Haven....OK, so we were a few miles east of Oswego too...like I said above, we ran quite a ways East.

Here are a couple of the other fish we boated today:





We lost more fish than we boated today, but that's the way it goes sometimes.  Even still, we managed to take home a respectable cooler full of Kings & a Coho and we definitely had a great time!

Thanks for a great day out there guys.  We had a riot with you today and we look forward to fishing with you guys again next season!

Until Next Time,
Fish On!!
