Cayuga out of Taughannock 7/7 AM + Skaneateles Lake 7/7 PM
Cayuga AM: Guided Dennis and Marge for the 1/2 day starting at 6 am. Dennis did all the fishing while Marge kicked back and relaxed. He had a good AM landing 4 nice lakers – all 27″ to 28″. Fish were full of vigor, ripping out plenty of drag. Shakers and flukes did the trick. Both lake shores were good. Best depths ran from 65′ out to 105′ or so.
Skaneateles PM: Guided Jack from Texas for a 1/2 day on Skaneateles. I’m not doing much “lake hopping” this year, but occasionally I make exceptions. Jack did well on smallmouths despite the high hot sun and lack of wind. Fish were active and we saw plenty! Tubes, dropshot rigs, superflukes and topwater lures worked well. Bass are loads of fun and today was no exception! Surface temps ran from 78 to 80! Nice day for a long swim.
