Oneida Dam
Time 1 PM -5 PM
temp  68
Water colder than the air by a lot
Winds 15-25 with 40-50 mph gusts
Visibility was about 1 foot
Water was as High as I've ever seen it

I fished a jig black n blue, t-rigged worm black, and a chatterbait black n blue with a green pumkin hulagrub.
Debbie was throwing a black n red senko ( Thanks smallie_stalker )

We fished the two mid section riprap walls all the bites came about 5-10 feet away from shore.
I caught and landed one big fish and had one break off at the knot ( should have retied ) both on the Jackhammer.
Debbie landed two, one big one on the senko.
We had a couple other bites but they didn't hold on to the worm and senko.

Set ups

Chatterbait ended up on the Dc744c with a Daiwa SV103. Planned on jigging it but ended up dragging it just fast enough to vibrate. also used the jig on it.

Senko was on a SA703sf with a Shimano Sahara 2500

Worm was on the DRX755c with a Daiwa Zillion svtw

I definitely picked the wrong day to go this weekend. Congrats on the nice fish!

Nice fish!

The water in our bigger lake is just about at the 50 degree mark. Hope to get out a bit more.

I'm trying to get out there tomorrow after I finish up work. Hopefully I can dumb into a few.

Yes since your guide won't be there to help you catch them.
