Ontario salmon/trout fishing

[Poles293]

I went up last Saturday and Sunday out of Olcott. I only have two wire dipsy rods for salmon fishing as all my other gear is for walleyes and way too light. We were fishing 200-250 feet fow on Saturday and had the divers down about 80 ft. Marked a ton of bait fish and fish but didn't catch anything. Most of the boats were fishing in 60-100 fow in full combat mode. On Sunday I caught a well written report for Olcott on LOU and they were fishing 350-450 fow and did well on flasher / fly combos.

Sunday I followed a charter boat out and got far away from the close in battle lines. We marked tons of bait and fish down 55-60 ft over 350 fow. We let our dipsys out on the wire 120 and 130 which is about 60 down. Didn't take long to hit a 20 lb King on an Atomik fly off a white with green dot Spin Doctor. About half hour later got a 12 lb Coho on the same rig and about an hour later finished the day with a 25 lb King again on the SD / fly combo. The other diver had a spoon on and we missed one hit on that rod. Everything was between 350-400 ft of water about 60 down and GPS speed was 2.8-3 mph. Hope this helps.

Did you fish inside? Someone else over on Lou said it was quiet today also. I'm thinkin that wind blew the water around.

Hopefully the lake stabilizes and more fish move into staging areas by next weekend. Depending on my floating in the air plans for the weekend we might hit Erie this weekend for perch.
