We arrived in Youngstown about noon on Thursday. Unloaded our stuff at the motel and hit the water for a couple of hours. We were able to go 3 for 5 for three hours of fishing, a decent king at 19 pounds, and a good laker at 10 pounds. The other fish was a king about 8 pounds. Water was cold and clear which made fishing a little difficult an fish spread out.
Friday we were on the lake and fishing by 6:30 after fighting the 3 foot waves to get out to our area. Again, we had gin clear water and tough fishing. We managed seven for seven. An 11 pound king was our best. The rest were 3 to 6 pound kings and coho’s mixed. The good note was that the stained water from the Niagara was moving out due to the wind dieing in the afternoon.
Saturday when we arrived to our fishing location we noticed The stained water had moved well beyond our location and we were into fish right away. We went 13 for 17 today with my personal best king of 26 ¼ pounds being the highlight of the day. A 23 pounder and several fish between 10 and 15 pounds along with an acrobatic 9 pound steelhead would finish out the day.
Sunday we went out onto the lake to find all the water to be stained. Found fish right away but they were all of the 3 to 5 pound class. We decided to leave this group of fish to see if we could find better size fish. We searched the rest of the day. Managed a good run on the wire diver out 200 feet, but lost it after about a 250 foot run. We went 11 for 15 with the best being about 10 pounds.
Over all a great trip, just the average size was a little smaller. There are some great fish out there but the weather needs to get a little more stable to set things up. Meet up with Storm Warning at the motel to compare notes a couple of days. A great group of guys.
Hope all went good for all.
Tight lines.
