Broad Lake Steelhead
Broad Lake Steelhead
Went out this morning to my usual spot, most of you know where, avoided the whirlpools, Japanese WW2 mines, dangerous rip tides, and caught a nice 7.9 Steelhead, 75 down, Silver Heavy trolling, Honeybee. Thanks Jim. Fished over deep watet near a drop-off. If you go these are dangerous waters and not for the faint of heart.

Congrats Jeff...we trolled around down south for a goose egg. Bringing big boat home for lake george/ontario and brining shallow water boat back.

Knew it was chrome right away, 75 down and the fish came straight up and airborne. 4 or 5 leaps, one 10 foot tail-walk. Solo in 2 and 3 footersReelax wrote:Did it jump? Did it jump?

Beautiful fish, congrats! Got a late start today - just one small Brown for us this morning but fun to see one.

Re: Broad Lake Steelhead
That is sweet! Clean looking fish. Was hoping to get something like that in Oswego this morning in the five footers but only boated one king.

Jeff I was out there thursday and friday both days were very bumpy. Thursday got 6 lakers and one salmon friday 4 lakers in the first hour and then they shut off for a couple hours then picked up a couple more. My probe was showing 52 degree at 40 feet so I ran them at 35 and 40. The farther north you go the more floating weeds you would find
Re: Broad Lake Steelhead
Must have been a lot of north wind last week, south wind today drove the temp to 65' first trip, later today it had climbed back to 55' after the wind died. Only fish I caught today, never dropped down for lakers.
