Think they made a charge today!

So here is my very vague but possibly accurate report. My camper neighbors have returned from the dsr every day usually by lunch, today did not come back at all and I left the job site at 4 got there at 730. Then on the way to rt13 to hit Duncan and 81 there were many "tards" fishing off the bridge and yanking hard, many boats in estuary some with6 to 8 people on them all working their rods like there was something going on. Hit the hatchery also and the top of the ladder has a very nice amount of steel and hoes in it rest of the ladder pretty much empty, except for the same(I believe) brown that was there in the same spot on the second rise 3 weeks ago, amazing! Have the strong urge to go up tomorrow but will hold off a bit and let this push get to my favorite waters.

       I'm headed up tomorrow I will report when I get back. Hopefully get a tug on the line bigger than a chub this time. But either way I will find so quiet water and enjoy the time. Good luck to whoever else is venturing out this weekend. I'm sure the red light district will be glowing when I pull into the lot.

    Dsr had some fish this morning but overall slow. A larger holding pool below where I fished seemed to have been holding fish. Nothing moving though. Upstream side of port Ontario. Bridge seems to have quite a few fish in it along with many boats and anglers... Something might happen...

    Jack I think that your spot will be holding some fish by then... Got a late morning report from my dad... SLOW... Watched on and off in town for a few hours today to see nothing!!! Folks really have to just fish when they can and hope for the best... Lake reports are still just as scattered as they've been with no large pods conglomerated. Fish being charted anywheres from lower 100' of water up to 500'!!! Eggs are small and tight in anything being caught. The fish i killed a week and a half ago was the same... Small fish with small tight eggs. Those fish boiling above the port bridge this morning are definitely nothing to write home about..

    How long are you gonna be up for jack? I missed ya last year... Would like to catch up with ya this time around

    I started my wood. It is difficult with the 30# restrictions and not being able to run the saw, but I leave the big chunks for the wife and the nephew to lift and dad and uncle buck them up. Once they are split I just handle them one piece at a time. The work is good therapy and I feel myself getting stronger. I will probably venture out next week.

    Nothing else to report about from yesterday Still slow fishing water is still warm. Headed out for a planned trip Tuesday through Friday hoping for better but I think that's is asking a lot I saw last nights low was 60 that doesn't help. I think a good trip would be a hook up or two. The good thing is a lot of people around me were complaining how last year this time they were catching fish and they scheduled their trip and no luck and they could come back. So I guess that's good for us less people when the run starts haha.

    Well guess my stupid thought of many fish was worthless .
    Thanks for the reports guys, fishing here is only by reading.
    Major work going on as I won't have another " free weekend " until November so gotta get it done.
    Good luck to anyone who ventures the water. Sounds like a fish or two would be a great day.
    Back to work.... Ugh
