We snuggled in on the clam of the north shore of NW Bay where we've been having some luck and discovered a desert, not a fish to be found. Played around for a while and then ran down to the South shore and immediately scored two lakers - fished another hour with only a "hit & run".
Ate lunch - homemade pea soup - Mmm, Mmm good while I ran down to Beaver Brook where I'd done a bunch of fish last spring - nothing there - looped around the bottom of the 100 FoWline for a while, a couple marks, but nothing to stay for - with no results headed east to where I did good last fall - just crossed over the "state line" and Wham - dipsy fires - Scott pouts a nice laker in the smoker box
We continued to run the 70-80 FoW line north and marked tremendous numbers of large bait balls and fish - we landed 5 more lakers and broke off 3 more fish including on leaper before it was time to head for the barn.
Alol fish where in CI with gold or copper backs - colors didn't seem to make much difference - 2.4 Mph, 30 feet back 10 feet down - curious??? water north was 38 and crystal clear, in Fishville was 41 and tainted a bit.
VT side, southend is worth looking at - especially if you want lakers.
This could be my last report until Oct as it's striper season and my slip will in Albany be ready Saturday - good luck to all and stay "high and dry"
