We had another great trip for my good buddies and after a poor trip last year they got what they came for this year. We headed out to the 33-35 line straight out of Point Breeze NY with some 5-6 foot rollers that James and Kelley always need to have a memorable trip. We started catching big Steelheads right out of the shoot and ended up with a few King Salmon but mainly Steelies. Danny caught a 24 pound Steelhead that went to the taxdermist and Kelley caught a 23 pounder. We mainly stayed with our program of 210-265 back on the wire #2 dipsy and used nucleur spin doctors and white flys seemed to be the best. Our riggers were set down 65-125 catching spoons were glow/ghost, purple thunder and froggy/glow. These guys brought there own small boat up with them to fish in the small inland lake were we stay (Lake Alice) and boated several smallmouth bass, largemouth bass a 28 inch walleye and a 27 inch northern pike slow trolling with an orange thunderstick. You guys are always great and I look forward to fishing with you even though you guys get sick alot!
