I've had a bunch of problems with my website over the past two weeks. My hosting service has changed servers and the site was down for a bit off and on, and now I still can't update anything.
They are working on it. That's what I'm told.
I got my boat out over the weekend on Cayuga Lake. Did some fly-casting for salmon on Saturday afternoon without any luck. Salmon have been around on Cayuga, but it looks like it's going to be a mediocre year. The last two years were great, so I guess we were due for a slow one. AES has been mostly dead all winter, except for pike fishing - which had been OK. I watched a lot of trollers go by and none circled around. I've heard some decent Cayuga reports - people have encountered fish, but they seem hard to find. Taughannock has been pretty slow. On Sunday I showed a friend how to fly-fish for pike. Calm sunny conditions make it very difficult and we could see bottom clearly in 10'+ of water. We saw a few small males. Had one almost grab a streamer but that was it. Found some lakers N. of AES and my buddy caught his first jigged fish in around 140'.
Seneca has been hot for salmon and appears to be the hot lake this year. We caught some good ones from shore on Friday - a couple 20"ers and one smaller one. I hope to get out a bit over the next few weeks. H2O is around 37/38 on both Seneca and Cayuga Lakes.
