Salmon fishing on Eastern Lake Ontario is starting! Saturday afternoon we boated 5 king salmon and broke two more off. The brown trout, steelhead and lake trout were biting as well. Early in the morning we trolled for brown trout in 40-60 foot of water. Small stingers run off the down riggers and leadcore worked great. The trout were down anywhere from 10-30 feet. In the afternoon we ran out deep for our first try at salmon of the season. We didn't get all the rods set and we were into our first king! In less then 4 hours fishing we took 10 hits! Salmon, steelheads and even a lake trout made for a fun afternoon. Our best depths were 160-200 feet fishing the riggers down 70-90 feet.
Spoons and fly rigs both took fish but the BIG king hit a fly rig fished off the copper run 500' back!
Oneida has been productive for night walleye fishing. Slow trolling worms and stick baits in shallow water is still working well.
