Hay was the angler reeling in the fish, a 24 pound, nine ounce salmon caught the last Saturday of the derby for some last-minute heroics. It was weighed in at Wilson after catching the fish on the Niagara Bar and Hay was the one who collected the check at the awards ceremony at Sodus Bay on May 10, but it will be split three ways in the end. The 2015 Summer Lake Ontario Counties Trout and Salmon Derby is now over – held June 13 to July 26 – and it was a team of three veteran anglers (literally) that produced the Grand Prize catch while fishing out of Olcott in Niagara County on July 17. John Monroe of Rochester was fishing with Mark Eisenbach of Victor and Al Fernaays of Fairport during the Curt Meddaugh Memorial fishing contest being run by the Lake Ontario Trout and Salmon Assn. on July 17 for club members (www.lotsa.org).

Filthy Pouch Purple Wish www.BayRatLures.com Erie, PA (814)-315-0518 Spring LOC continued from page 1 “We were fishing the Niagara Bar that Saturday morning around 7:30 am when the fish hit,” said the retired UPS worker, used to carrying around big packages. This one screamed out over 400 feet of line like it was nothing and the fight was on. The bait of choice was a white and green dot spin doctor and a ProAm fly, using a diver set at 125 feet back on a No. 2 setting. They were fishing out of Keeler’s 19-foot Triumph boat named “Dirty Hooker.” It took Hay a half hour to bring the fish in. As far as credit, they pointed a finger at the Lake Ontario Trout and Salmon Association’s Salmon School held during the Greater Niagara Fishing and Outdoor Expo last January. They attended the school and were so impressed with the area and the school that they decided to fish on the Niagara Bar and give it a go. The rest is history. “We love the Niagara Bar,” said Hay as he accepted the cash and the trophy. First place in the salmon division was Lee Beaton of Clifton Springs with a 24 pound Niagara Bar king. He was fishing with Jim Skolny of Manchester and Gary Erb of Williamson out of Skolny’s 22-foot Wellcraft named “Dodger,” which he announced that it was for sale at the awards ceremony. “Fishing was awesome all week for us and this is the biggest spring salmon that I’ve ever caught,” said Beaton. They were using a Frostbite pattern Michigan Stinger spoon on a downrigger, 55 feet down over 70 feet of water when the bruiser hit. It took him about 20 minutes to bring it in before they headed to the weigh station at Youngstown Harbor. “It was chaos when the fish hit and I’m glad we were able to bring the big king to the boat.” Their catch earned them $2,500. Second place in the Salmon Division and the early leader in the derby was Nicholas Glosser of Amherst while fishing with Team Thrillseeker and Capt. Vince Pierleoni of Newfane. Also on board were Stephanie Pierleoni and Tanner Niezgoda of Newfane. Fishing out of Pierleoni’s 35-foot Viking “Thrillseeker 2” in the first King of the Lake Tournament of the Year out of St. Catharines, Ontario, the team ran to the U.S. side of the Niagara Bar, starting first in the shallows with stickbaits off flat lines on planer boards. They used the same program with a Live Target black and white stickbait on the drop off to take the big 23 pound, 14 ounce king – the only fish that they caught on the surface like that over 70 feet of water. It was still worth $1,500 in prize money. Glosser took 20 minutes to reel the fish in, help- Continued on page 3 Eleven year old Logan Dubuque of Hagerstown, MD won the the youth award in the Salmon Division. Logan was fishing with his grandfather Timothy Hyde and weighed in the 25 lb 4 oz Salmon at Woody’s Tackle.

Of the top 21 salmon in the derby, 17 were caught out of Niagara County. First place lake trout was Casey Prisco of Matamoras, Pennsylvania with a 24 pound, one ounce fork tail taken out in front of Wilson. The amazing thing for the “Dirty Goose” team that consisted of Emily Prisco, Kevin Keller and Justin Borowitz was that they were salmon fishing, focusing on the spring king bite. “We hauled in over 150 salmon for the week but nothing big enough to make the board,” said Prisco, who runs a 30-foot Pursuit Offshore. “The same program produced 250 lake trout during the week including the divisional winner.” The laker was worth $1,200. It was caught on a green Dirty Goose spoon, something Prisco helped develop with Finger Lakes Tackle. The team also took an 11th place lake trout when Rob The Slippery Sinker 716-778-0713 Fishing licenses, live bait, & a complete line of Lake and stream tackle.

Main St. Olcott, NY 14126 Ripka of Pulaski was on board mid-week. The spoon was an orange Dirty Goose spoon. “Fishing was great this week,” said Prisco. “We put our time in. We fished 98 hours this week.” It was the biggest lake trout that he’s ever caught. It came off a downrigger, 60 feet down over 140 feet of water. Second place lake trout was a 23 pound, six ounces fish reeled in by Charlie Eulitt of Oak Harbor, Ohio while fishing out of Olcott. Fishing out of his 30-foot Baha “Good Time Charlie” east of Olcott, they hooked into the runner-up money winner 65 feet down over 110 feet of water off the Microwave Tower around 10:30 am. It was the biggest lake trout of his life. He was fishing with Chris Roff of Erie, Pennsylvania. The lucky lure was a UV Michigan Stinger magnum blue dolphin spoon, caught off the rigger. Top youth lake trout angler was Jacob Mehegan of Wolcott with a 20 pound, 8 ounce fish caught off Oswego while fishing with his dad, Jim, and Capt. Andy Grisenthwaite of Liverpool with Broad Horizons Charters. It was the biggest lake trout ever for the 10 year old fifth grader. “I don’t know how long it took me to bring it in but I remember it tired me out.” Dad said it was about 20 minutes. Big brown trout was a 16 pound, 10 ounce fish taken by Mike Wichtowski of Rochester taken near Devil’s Nose near Sandy Creek. He was fishing with Jeff Coyle of Hamlin aboard his 20-foot Crestliner named “Reel Peace.” “We were in 70 feet of water in front of Devil’s Nose using a flasher-fly behind our wire diver 85-feet back on a No. 3 setting when the fish hit,” said Wichtowski, who won the brown trout division four years ago. “I thought it was a king it hit so hard.” He won $1,200 cash for the trophy fish. Second and third place brown trout were connected with father and son. Arin Keegan of Sackets Harbor was fishing with Peter Priest of Watertown off Point Peninsula near Chaumont Bay when they hit a big 15 pound, six ounce brown. They motored in to weigh their catch at Henchen Marine and pick up Arin’s dad, John. That’s when the father caught a 13 pound, three ounce brown that ended up in third place. On the same trip, they also caught a 19th place walleye that Priest weighed in. The second place fish was caught on a Michigan Stinger spoon 150 Continued on page 9 4 LOC Derby News - Fall 2015 GENERAL INFORMATION: Orleans County Niagara County Sportfishing Bill Hilts Jr. Niagara Falls New York Phone: 877-FALLS US Ext 303 E-mail: [email protected] Fishing Hotline: 877-FALLS US Updated Weekly Lake Road Youngstown, New York 266 Sites Phone: 716-745-3802 or 1-800-456-CAMP Niagara Tourism & Convention Corp. 10 Rainbow Blvd. Niagara Falls, New York 14303 Phone: 1-877 FALLSUS Web: www.niagara-usa.com IMPORTANT WEBSITES www.olcottfishing.com www.niagarariveranglers.com www.outdoorsniagara.com www.niagara-usa.com www.lotsa.org www.lakeontarioproam.net Sportfishing Organizations Niagara River Anglers Association P.O.

In what started out as the Niagara County Fishing Derby, this competition is now opened to three counties (Niagara, Erie and Orleans) in an attempt to encourage more involvement in this family-oriented event. With a big focus on the Junior Division, this move will give the kids more opportunity to wet a line because of the fact that they are out of school. With the huge Lake Ontario Counties (LOC) Trout and Salmon Fall Derby kicking off on Aug. 21, this will give contesthungry anglers an appetizer for the big bucks. While most everything is the same (except that charter captains and mates are exempt from purchasing a ticket if they aren’t fishing the derby themselves for prizes), there are a few new twists that could land you a few extra dollars. First, a daily $100 prize for the biggest salmon caught each day – taking a page out of the LOC event – is being offered August 22-29. Second, the Lake Ontario Trout and Salmon Association (LOTSA) is back again with a special $500 cash prize for the largest salmon caught by a LOTSA member while competing in the derby. In addition to that, the witness (which also has to be a LOTSA member) will also receive a check for $200. When you register for the Fish Odyssey, toss in another $10 for your LOTSA membership and you’ll be considered registered in that fine organization. You can also register online at www.lotsa.org. Species categories for the adults include salmon, smallmouth bass, walleye, carp, lake trout and brown/rainbow trout. For the kids 15 years and under, categories will be salmon, trout, bass, walleye, carp and panfish. Entry fee will stay the same at $20 for the adults; free for the kids. A one day pass will also be available for $10. It doesn’t get any easier than that.

Every year the derby remembers someone we lost previously that meant a lot to the fishery and this year it’s Ken Sprenger of North Tonawanda who passed on in 2014. He was on the original Derby Board, Niagara County Fisheries Board and an outdoor writer in area papers. We are sad to see Ken go, but his memory will live on in the Fish Odyssey. Once again, The Primate Sanctuary (thanks to Carmen and Christie Presti) will be donating a new bike that will be drawn at the awards ceremony for every kid that’s registered in the fun contest.

The angling trio are also service veterans – Monroe formerly with the Marines; Eisenbach with the Navy; Fernaays with the Army. “It was a team effort all the way around,” said Monroe, a retired airlines pilot, at the awards ceremony in Sodus Point on July 26. “We fished as a team and we should be recognized as a team. We will split the $11,500 in winnings three ways.” The check included a $500 prize from LOTSA for the biggest salmon caught by a club member. Using a spin doctor flasher and A-Tom-Mik green and blue fly 80 feet down over 170 feet of water, the fish hit on the downrigger and didn’t feel like much at first – until it decided to take off nearly 400 feet of line without stopping. “It was the strongest run I’ve ever felt on a rod! Fortunately it expended most of its energy.” Twenty five minutes later Monroe was holding his biggest salmon ever, a 28 pound, 8 ounce fish – the largest fish he’s ever weighed in during a derby. They were fishing out of Eisenbach’s 21-foot ThunderJet boat named “Black Jaw” and weighed their catch at The Slippery Sinker in Olcott. “It was a miracle we were able to get the fish into the boat,” said Monroe. “After the salmon tangled up all of the other lines, we were able to finally get it up next to the boat to net it. When Al reached for it, the hook was caught on the inside of the net but the fish was on the outside! How we managed to beat the odds is beyond us. I guess it was meant to be! And I’m really happy for Mark. It shows that if you stick with something long enough you can be successful.” In the Salmon Division it was Dave Colvin of Springwater fishing out of Point Breeze in Orleans County to win the category with a 28 pound, 5 ounce king. He was fishing in the King of the Oak contest on July 18 with Matt Briggs and his son Ben from Dansville aboard Matt’s 26.5 foot Penn Yan named “Reel Issues.” Also on board was Dave’s cousin, Jason Colvin of Victor and Joe Dallas of Dansville. They hit the big king 12 miles to the east of the Oak, using a 400-foot copper line over 220 feet of water. “I’m usually the driver,” said Colvin, “but I needed to stretch my legs. The rod went off and I grabbed it. It’s my biggest king ever and I will be getting it mounted.” It took him 35 minutes to bring the fish to the boat. Now available at: Bass Pro Shops Cabela’s & LL Bean Dave Colvin (right) of Springwater, NY and his 28 lb 5 oz king weighed in at Narby’s in Oak Orchard. Dave was fishing aboard the “Reel Issues” with Mathew Briggs (left) and caught the fish on copper line and cut bait and won first place in the Salmon Division in the Summer LOC Derby. Second place salmon was a 27 pound, 15 ounce king reeled in by Eric Rupprecht of Rochester while fishing with Steve Weiner of Fairport aboard Steve’s 19-foot Lund named “Triple S.” Fishing out of Braddocks Bay on July 18, they had been targeting browns early in the morning when they switched over to salmon. They were using a silver and black NBK Michigan Stinger spoon 50 feet down over 110 feet of water at 9:45 am when the salmon hit. “We were classmates at Fairport High School,” said Rupprecht, “and we tried to get together fishing several times over the years. We finally made that happen and it produced this winning fish.” Top Youth salmon was a 25 pound, four ounce king checked in by Logan DuBuque of Hagerstown, Maryland. He was using a spin doctor and fly while fishing out of Port Ontario on July 19 aboard “Dapper Dan.” First place lake trout was John Stanton III of Rochester with a 23 pound, 14 ounce fish caught east of Sandy Creek. He was using a Hammerhead attractor named crystalline watermelon with a homemade spin-n-glo that had been put together by Brian Gambell of Hilton. They were using a downrigger on the bottom of 125 feet of water.

The Niagara tournament started off 31 years ago, the brainchild of Lowrance Electronics and the origin of the Great Lakes Salmon Team Tournaments. It is still running strong, with Oswego jumping on board 21 years ago. To add to the excitement, Niagara added a second event and created a special Niagara Cup for the two Western Basin tournaments for its 30th Annual celebration. Niagara County, running out of the ports of Wilson and Olcott, held one event May 30-31 and a second one June 6-7 – the second year in a row that two back-to-back tournaments were held. Weather played a huge role in the fishing action as a hard northeast wind hampered both weekends. The first weekend saw only one day of fishing for the participating teams. In the end, it was the Thrillseeker squad led by Capt. Vince Pierleoni of Newfane winning the Classic Division (12 fish) in the one day contest. Winner of the Trophy Division (best 5 fish) was Capt. Rich Hajecki and his Yankee Troller team out of Rochester, NY. Pierleoni and team are a bit intimidating when it comes to fishing tournaments. While they have fished every single ProAm event on the lake since its inception (including sanctioned events that have fallen by the wayside in Point Breeze, Rochester and Sodus Bay), they have amassed an impressive seven wins in Niagara and 14 tournaments overall in the Pro-Am series alone. They have also won several lakewide cups for their mantel, symbolizing a model of consistency. That doesn’t even come close to scratching the surface of top 10 finishes. “We knew that catching a limit was going to make the difference for being in the money,” said Pierleoni. “We fished where most of the other boats were and used Dreamweaver spoons to put us over the top, catching our limit of salmon and trout.” Enter David of David and Goliath fame. Okay, maybe his name was Tony Chatt and his team was Five More Minutes. Chatt’s squad was mostly fishing the amateur divisions that last several years and this year opted to fish with the big boys – the giants of the Lake Ontario fishing industry. His slingshot was natural-colored spoons of black-silver, blue-silver and greensilver … once he found an area that was holding fish – and he stayed on them until he caught as many fish as he possibly could. The water was all messed up again from the easterly winds of the week. In fact, the morning of the first day in that second weekend was a delay of four hours because of a northeast blow. They found fish to the east and worked them over as best he could over 400 feet of water. “The fish were up high and once we found them we tried to stay on them the best we could,” said Chatt. “We caught 11 on Saturday and 12 on Sunday for a limit. It was enough to give us the win for the weekend and tie Thrillseeker for the Classic West Cup (two tournments combined). In the Trophy Division, it was Oh Baby led by Matt Laclair of West Chazy, NY winning the title – an encore from his Wilson Harbor Invitiational win a few weeks before. In combining both weekends, though, Yankee Troller had the edge for the West Trophy Cup. Big fish for both weekends was a 21 pound king salmon reeled in by the Tough Duty team led by Capt. Tim Sylvester. All told for the two weekends, more than $100,000 in cash and prizes were handed out to Niagara’s tournament competitors. Chatt and his Five More Minutes team wasn’t finished yet, though. There was one more event in Oswego July 11-12. They made the executive decision at that last minute to focus on salmon rather than brown trout. That decision resulted in the team’s first Professional win in Oswego and their first overall Lake Ontario Challenge Cup utilizing a unique scoring system involving the three Pro-Am events. “David” took home the cup!

It was Arin’s birthday at the awards ceremony, a nice present for the Jefferson County angler. Big walleye for the derby was hauled in by Travis Parker of Glen Park, a 12 pound, 13 ounce fish taken near Point Peninsula near the Black River. He was fishing with Skip LaVancha of Dexter and Paul Erdner of Watertown on opening weekend out of Erdner’s 18-foot Polarcraft. Placing a perch-colored Husky Jerk 130 feet back behind the planer boards did the trick for them. It was 9 am and they were over 26 feet of water. The reason they picked this particular spot was because they had caught a big walleye there last fall and they had wished for a similar one. That wish came true, resulting in Parker’s biggest walleye ever and earning a check for $1,200. Second place walleye went to Gene Bolton of Watertown with an 11 pound, five ounce fish he took in the Henderson Har- bor area on a Husky Jerk off a board. He moved into second place when the previous second place angler failed to show at the awards night. Top youth was 13 year old Jared Difrancesco of Baldwinsville. His 10 pound walleye, the biggest he’s ever caught in his life, placed in 16th overall. It came from Point Peninsula while fishing with his dad, Peter, Frank Spina of Solvay and Tony Chatt of West Monroe. Peter also reeled in a 10 pound, nine ounce ‘eye to take 9th place overall. The “secret” bait was a black and chrome Bomber stickbait for both fish.

That has been the weather pattern for the past 12 years. The good news for the competing teams for the 2015 event was there were no waves challenging the run to the finish line. It was a flat Lake Ontario for the July 18-19 tourney. Forty-seven teams were fishing the two day event and the majority of the teams waited until the last minute before entering the Sodus Bay harbor. Teams are required to be between the pier heads at exactly 2 pm. If you miss that deadline you are Visit Beautiful Wayne County Blind Sodus Bay Holiday Harbor*^ * Accessible by people with disabilities 10 ^Boat rentals available disqualified for the day of fishing. How competitive is it? Dave Antenori and his Screamer Team stopped near the finish line with three minutes remaining. Antenori dropped a rigger ball down and tried for the last fish of the day. It didn’t work, however the team captain said: “I still had time…you never know.” Sodus Pro AM continued on page 11 Monster King Salmon, Browns and Steelhead and perhaps the best Smallmouth Bass fishing in the Empire State.

Cast Aluminum / Free S&H USA Only “The bottom line in our plan was to go for browns,” Calus www.fish-pic.com | 800-537-8837 said. The strong wind on Wednesday forced the kings to scatter and I knew I needed 12 fish to compete.” The Sure Strike Team grabbed a couple of lake trout in 155 feet of water and then worked the shoreline between Pultneyville and the Ginna Power Plant in Ontario, Wayne County. “We had our full box in two hours on the first day. We had our team meeting (Bruce Stenglein, Ken Biemiller, Tom Widell and Scott Grandjean) Saturday night and decided to continue the brown trout program during Sunday’s final day.” It only took Calus and team three hours to box-out and they grabbed the top score on Sunday, winning the two day tournament with a total score of 479.10 points. Calus complimented the tournament officials for a smooth running event and added that “Sodus Bay is a great port to fish.” Tony Chatt and his 5 Minutes More Team took first place in the Amateur Division with a two day score of 265.20 points. Chatt, from West Monroe, NY, was coming off a first place win in the Oswego Pro-Am and the Lake Ontario Challenge Cup titl. However, the captain didn’t travel east back to Oswego for his brown trout catch. “We went west to the Ginna Plant and fished two hours catching some kings and a steelhead,” Chatt said during the weigh-in at Sodus Point. “Then we fished the shoreline near Pultneyville. We picked-up a bunch of nice browns.” On day two Chatt and team used the same plan. “We had a full box of browns and one Atlantic Salmon,” Chatt said. “We This catch makes the third division leader change today! were finished at 12:30pm.” The 5 More Minutes team had a two Thomas Widell of Webster, NY landed a 18 lb 3 oz brown and day score of 265.20 points. weighed in at Warren’s Hook Line and Sinker in Sodus Point. to Handle Your Fish $19.95 K&G SPORT FISHING Lake Ontario’s Largest Charter Boats 800-346-6533 • 315-343-8171 Mention this ad and get a FREE GIFT at time of booking!

LOC Derby News - Fall 2015 15 5 More Minutes Wins Oswego Pro-Am & OSWEGO COUNTY Challenge Cup for Lake Pro-Ams The final Lake Ontario Pro-Am that is part of the Lakewide Challenge Cup was held in Oswego County July 11-12. In the end, it as the Five More Minutes team led by Tony Chatt of West Monroe, NY who walked away with not only the Professional Division title for the two day Oswego Tournament, but also with the prestigious Lake Ontario Challenge Cup combining the two Niagara contests with the Oswego tourney. After tying Capt. Vince Pierleoni’s Team Thrillseeker squad for Niagara’s West Cup – the first time there has ever been a tie – the Five More Minutes anglers completed their lakewide cup quest by winning the 21st Annual Oswego County Pro-Am. The tournament win (their first in Oswego) was enough to put them over the top and beat Pierleoni (from Newfane and chartering out of Olcott) and company. Thrillseeker finished third in the tournament and second in the Cup points race. “We won at Oswego in 2010 in the amateur division,” said Chatt at the awards ceremony. “Last year we did fish the Amateur Division in Oswego because I could not find a 4th person for the team. Two years ago we fished pro. We finally won the professional division here!” Amateur Division winner in Oswego was the Goin’ Deep team led by Brian Kegg.

Gambell’s name should sound familiar to LOC Derby contestants. He won the lake trout division in 2005 and 2012 in the fall with some impressive fish. It was the biggest lake trout that Stanton had ever caught and the highest he’s ever place in the derby. Gambell fininished in 14th place with a 19 pound, 10 ounce laker. Second place lake trout was a 23 pound fish hauled in by Richard Driscoll of Victor, while fishing with his son, Christopher. Lure of choice was a white crinkle A-Tom-Mik fly on a white Pro-Chip flasher. They were fishing out of their 22-foot Wellcraft named “Lined Out.” It was Richard’s biggest laker ever, coming from 130-foot of water on the bottom 9 miles east of Irondequoit Bay. Christopher ended up in 8th place in the lake trout division with a 21 pound, three ounce fish caught a few days later. Top Youth lake trout was a 19 pound one ounce fish caught by Noah Patton of Glen Park on a Spin-N-Glo out of Henderson Harbor on July 25 while fishing aboard “Ramblin’ Rose.” Top steelhead was caught by Brian Gregson of Gasport with a 16 pound, 9 ounce fish he caught while fishing the LOTSA King Salmon Club Tournament on July 18. He was using a downrigger 40 feet down over 368 feet of water straight out from Olcott with a Sting Ray NBK spoon. After the fish hit, they thought they had a mid-sized king – until they saw the white mouth. Then they got excited! It only took them about six minutes to reel the fish in. He was fishing with his wife, Jill and brother Adam. It was the biggest steelhead that they have ever caught on the boat before – coming at a great time. Second place steelhead was a 15 pound, 15 ounce chrome taken by David Bonnell of Rochester. He was fishing with Rich Steubing of Brockport (who owns the boat, a 22.5-foot Thompson named “Live Action”), Sarah Lauth of Hamlin, Tim Skript of Rochester and Sheila Frank of Greece. They caught the fish July 12 at 7 am while fishing east of Sandy Creek. It was a green and black Michigan Stinger spoon that did the trick, 40 feet down over 120 feet of water on a downrigger. It was the biggest steelhead for all involved. Top Youth Steelhead was a 12 pound, 7 ounce fish outfought by 10 year old Morgan Felluca of Hilton. She was fishing with her dad, Capt. Jerry Felluca; her uncle, Larry Lapa; and cousin Chad Lapa. They were fishing in the Sandy Creek Shootout on July 25, catching the fish around 1 pm on cut bait. She is a fifth grader at St. Kateri in Irondequoit. The boat was “Runnin’ Rebel,” a 26-foot Pro Hunter. First place brown trout was a 20 pound, four ounce fish caught by Tom Duyssen of Ontario, NY while fishing east of Pultneyville with a black and purple Michigan Stinger spoon. He was fishing with Mike Barringer and Chris Chimenti (both of Ontario, NY) aboard his 24-foot Trophy Bayliner named “Stripinline.” They were fishing in the Wayne County Pro-Am in the Amateur Division east of Pultneyville, 10 feet down over 38 feet of water with their downrigger. Second place brown trout went to Tom Widell of Webster with an 18 pound, 3 ounce brownie. The captain of Reel Action Charters was fishing with another captain, Randy Calas of Webster aboard his 10 Meter Trojan called “Sure Strike.” They, too, were fishing the Wayne County Pro-Am and this fish came off a 100 foot copper line off a planer board over 45 feet of water at 8:30 am. It was Widell’s biggest brown personally. Also on board were Bruce Stenglein of Webster; Ken Biemiller of Penfield; and Scott Grandjean of Henderson. They placed first in the Professional Division of the Wayne County Pro-Am event, fishing near the power plant to the west. Youth brown trout winner was Joshua Hauman of Penfield with a 13 pound, five ounce fish caught out of Hughes Marina in Williamson. He was using a Northern King 28 spoon to take his biggest brown ever on July 2, fishing out of “FLX Troller.” For a complete list of LOC Summer Derby winners, see page 18 Morgan Felluca (center)won the youth award in the steelhead division with a 12 lb 7 oz fish caught while fishing with her father Captain Jerry Felluca (right) aboard the Runnin Rebel. Morgan finished 11th in the rainbow/steelhead division. Joseph Dolan (left) was also aboard and landed a 25 lb 12 oz King that put him on the leaderboard in 14th place. Great day on the lake! A great day was had fishing aboard the Escape on June 20th. John Stanton III (Top Left) of Rochester, NY won the Lake Trout Division and $1250 with a 23 lb 14 oz beauty. Top right is Keith Tessier of Hilton NY with a 17 lb 15 oz Lake trout and in the foreground is Brian Gambell of Hilton, NY with a 19 lb 10 oz Lake trout that finished 14th. All fish were weighed in at Narby’s in Oak Orchard. Jeffrey Kimball of Oriskany Falls NY weighed in the 3rd place in the Brown Division with a 17 lbs 13 oz male weighed in at Larry’s Oswego Salmon Shop. Jeff caught his fish on a Stinger spoon while fishing aboard the Missfitt.
