Guided Mark I. for a full-day on Owasco Lake starting just after 8 am. Our target today was pike on the fly. Mark fly-fished the whole day, save for 15 minutes spent casting gear in one marginal area. We had tricky weather forecasts going into...

Owasco Lake 12/5 midday
Guided Zach for a 1/2 day trip getting underway around 10:15 am. We were after pike on the fly. He did not want me to bring any back-up gear (i.e., spinning/baitcasting tackle) onboard. It's what I call "fly or die" fishing. Your success is based...

Keuka Lake out of Branchport 2/20
It's been pretty darn windy in the Finger Lakes region as of late, so I haven't taken my boat out since my last trip. Today looked like the best day of the week and I really wanted to get over to Keuka Lake. With the...

Seneca Lake out of Watkins Glen 12/8
Guided Mark I. for a full day today getting underway at around 8:30 am. We knocked off a little early, at 4 pm. Action was a lot slower for us than what I experienced on Monday. He spent nearly the entire day fly-fishing although we...
