I will be sending out a mass emailing come around march, to get a spark under their butt of those who are interested in the early bite. We will talk to ya soon, have a great winter. Capt Bruce

Salmon in the front door

Capt. Bruce — Tue, 13 Sep 2011 09:57:55 +0000

The mature salmon showed up in good numbers 9/8 after all that northeast wind. They have slowly progresed up the river to spawn. The deep water steelhead bite is nothing short of fantastic. There are still some mature kings out there as well as 2yr olds. This year class of fish are some of the largest we have seen in 10 years.(lots of bait) I would say the average is around 24 or 25lbs. We need a weather change to bring some more salmon into the river. Sounds like this week. Stay tuned,,,,,,,

Big salmon this year

Capt. Bruce — Mon, 29 Aug 2011 00:03:32 +0000

I just finished running 14 trips in the last 10 days. The bite has been as good as you would ever want it. The browns, salmon and a few lakers with a couple of rainbows thrown in the mix have been the normal catch. Some days there are more salmon then others. They are moving around looking for that special girl they want. My last trip was offshore to find some steelhead, 2yr old salmon and matures. We found the mother lode of steelhead. The boys from n.j. had a ball. They heard me yell reel more times then i care to admit. I boated a 32.14lb and a whopping 35.53lb salmon so far this year. These are the biggest fish Hookedup has seen in several years. This year has some some very large and healthy salmon. I will be fishing to the end of september this year. Stay tuned.

Salmon are starting to show up

Capt. Bruce — Wed, 17 Aug 2011 01:35:37 +0000

The last 6 of the 8 trips have been offshore in the 400 to 600 ft range. The water has been stable there and so is the bait. The inside waters have had salmon come and go, leaving us to catch browns, some salmon and lake trout with the occasional steelhead. The deep water has had 2 year old salmon and matures, along with plenty of steelhead action. The last few charters i have fished the inside waters and found plenty of fish. This should only get better as september rolls near. 31lbs has been the largest for hookedup so far, with plenty of mid to upper 20″s. This september looks like it should have some slobs to tussle with. I will try to write reports at every two weeks if not sooner.

Roochester fishing

Capt. Bruce — Sat, 06 Aug 2011 22:17:20 +0000

The last four trips starting 8/4 have been great action. I would say 70% steelhead and 30% salmon. That should be changing soon, with more salmon action as they move closer and loosely school up, to get their last feeding in before they make their spawning run up the genesee river. The bites have ranged from 15 to 30 or so a day. If you can capitalize on those you are in. Stay tuned i am out for 6 more trips this week. GO FISHING!

Tha awesome fishing continues

Capt. Bruce — Mon, 25 Jul 2011 10:57:09 +0000

This is one of those years where no matter what mother nature throws at you ,(wind wise) it just doesnt matter. The fish stay around, and the temperature doesnt move all that much. I am still fishing under 200ft of water, mostly 120 to 70ft. King salmon, browns, rainbows, and lots of lake trout have been chewing quite nicely. Limit catches have been the norm rather than the exception. I still have some days left in july, as well as august. This year has been AWESOME! Dont miss it, give me a call. I am sorry it took so long to get a new report out. Our internet service was out while we were moving.

6/10-6/11 fishing report

Capt. Bruce — Sun, 12 Jun 2011 01:08:57 +0000

The old time customers or ohio brought their 10 year old grandson. Needless to say he is hooked. We had 21 bites and landed 13 fish of all different species. The day was just perfect for all, with cosistent action for the most part with a couple of slow periods. Top water action was the man, rigger bites earlier in the marning. Fishing has been great so far this season. Yeaaaaaa!!!!!

The Awesome Rochester Fishing Continues

Capt. Bruce — Fri, 27 May 2011 13:15:48 +0000

The last 3 trips in late may have led to options of where to fish, and what to catch. The shallow waters are still giving up plenty of brown trout action. The deeper waters are where the steelhead, kings, cohoes and lake trout are camping out at. The bait is just starting to move in which will put the browns in a feeding frenzy, and leave the other fish out deeper hungry. Dont miss the action, give me a call and lets go fishin.

Awesome spring fishing continues

Capt. Bruce — Tue, 03 May 2011 16:43:21 +0000

I just finished fishing 4 trips with and we had 128 fish on with 94 of those landed. A mix bag of kings, cohoes, browns, lake trout and even 2 atlantics. The biggest was a king that weighed in at 20lbs. The steelhead bite should be fantastic in late may into june this year from all indications. If you are interested in fishing call now so you get the date you want.

Just another awesome spring in good old rachachaster. There seems to be plenty of fish around, not many cohos showing up yet. The browns were loaded with monster gobies. Someone needs to make a lure the same shape, size, and color of the gobie. It only needs to dive 4ft at the most. One could only hope it would be in the future.
