Fishing Report #6

05/25/09

 

Hello to the fishpeople:
 
    Another week, another fishing report. Ah the vagaries of fishing! Just when you think you have figured it out the fish don't think the way you do. On Sat., May 23 rd. MY GAL CAL II and her two charters ( morning and afternoon) boated an aggregate of 25 walleyes and kept a total of twenty (ten each outing). The flats, south of buoy 119 provided the venue for me and Matt Dolansky, Ralph Moore and dad, Tom Dolansky all from the New Harford, NY area. A stiff east wind at 15 knots provided a vigorous drift. Both the Bass Pro Shops half ounce XPS Lazer Blade (gold) and the half ounce black/purple jig brought walleyes to the boat. You can see them in the forefront of the picture.

                                                                                      
    The afternoon group from 4:00 P.M. to 7:00 P.M. encountered just the opposite condition...clam, quiet and barely a ripple drift. Surprisingly the walleyes continued to bite and this time it was all jig and a night crawler. The Jingalewski's, Tom (Saratoga), Jerry (Syracuse), Bill (Syracuse), Mark and daughter Sam from York, PA applied the jigging with perfection. Twelve year old Sam was not to be outdone she landed her limit.

 
                                                         
 
    The very next day, Sunday I left the dock with all the confidence that a pattern bite has finally setup on the little "O". Well to my dismay we boated one walleye, one burbot and one perch in the same vicinity of the previous day's catch. So at best Oneida continues to be on again off again. My advice...pick the on again days.
 
    On Monday I took the Tavares's, dad, and sons, Evan and Ryan, from PA, neighbor, Nevin Meck and cousin Mark Gomes from NYC to lake Ontario for brown/steelhead. It was a tough bite but a fun outing watch the action at YOUTUBE  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WOVrvjTvx44
