Got an early start trolling the north shore of the lake, marking fish in the 16-19' range, about 10' down. Started at 4:30 am and had 2 in the boat by 6:30 18/20". Trolled deep blk/silver Rogue and brn/orange Renosky-both fish on the Rogue. After sun-up, the fish were being marked at the breakline from 19-32', trolled the breakline back and forth, running the lures up and down the breakline, keeping the Rogue and changing the other lure out. Caught another 3 eyes through the day, and as soon as the sun set, caught 2 doubleheaders, with the fish the biggest of the day 22-24". I had changed both lures to ReefRunner deep divers-1 wonderbread and the other a gold with brown spots-and they worked!
Fished Sunday from 6:30 to 11:30 am- took 1 18" and lost 1 big one that buried the board when it hit. I was getting ready to net the fish when I bent over, dipped the rod tip and the fish came unbuttoned. Since I only had 1 in the livewell, and it was doing great-I let it go and called it a day for the 4 hour trip back home.I felt it was a pretty good fall trip to Oneida....
