Cayuga Lake out of Dean’s Cove 6/22

Reports

We had a tough 1/2 day on Cayuga today, mainly due to the wind. I met Pat and Karen at the launch around 6:30 am. Conditions were overcast with light wind and plenty of baitfish around. I spent a bit of time teaching them the technique. It didn’t take long – maybe two or three drops of the jig before Karen was latched onto a 20″ lake trout. A few other hits were missed. Then the wind came up strong out of the north. Pat and Karen were having some trouble detecting the bottom and the wind didn’t help anything! We fished hard, but had no more action. Today’s tough day was more of a day to day weather variation, than a seasonal one. Expect fishing to remain good to very good for awhile.
