Otisco Lake 9/22
Guided Otisco Lake for a full-day trip getting underway at 7 am with Mark I. Tiger muskies on the fly was the target. Tigers can be hard enough to catch on gear - with the fly-rod it's usually tougher. It's much harder to cover water...

Got out here for a 1/2 day fly-fishing trip for tiger muskies with Fred and his brother Matt. Both have joined me in the past for laker trips. If I said we had any semblance of good conditions today, I'd be lying. We had next...

Otisco Lake 11/14

Otisco Lake 5/22
Guided Mark I. for a full day starting just after 8 am. Mark spent the entire day fly-fishing for muskies using his 10 weight rods. That's a LOT of casting! A lot of GREAT casting in Mark's case. He really is a superb caster and...

Otisco Lake 11/8 midday
Guided Greg again for tiger muskies, getting underway just past 10:30 am. It was cold outside and I don't believe the temperature ever got above 39 degrees out on the lake. The wind stayed down, which helped us stay warmer, but that usually doesn't help...
