6/4 casting report

Went out this morning with a buddy to do some casting for eyes. We started at cone reef fishing the top. Marked a few fish but didn’t get any interest. Worked around little pickerel on the north side next. Marked lots of fish but only picked up one and a couple shorts. Moved to the west side of Niagara and caught a keeper and a couple more shorts and a bunch of sheepshead. Moved to the east side of Niagara and picked up another keeper and a couple more shorts. Probably fished 5 hours total. We tried multiple different ways and spinner/weight combinations but it didn’t seem to change our luck. Lots of mayflies.

We fished n and e of Kelly's caught 2 small keepers and a bunch of shorts so small didn't even know they were on there and lots of sheep head. Dead mayflies every where. Two guys at the fish cleaners got there limit out of vermilion.
