Vertical Jigging for Lake Trout Using Keitech Swing Impact Fat Body Swimbaits- Fishing Cayuga Lake



Today I took the kayak to Cayuga Lake in Ithaca New York to do some Lake Trout fishing. I was vertical jigging with Keitech Swing Impact Fatbody swimbaits over deep water and I was using them on 1 ounce Vmc Mooneye Jighead

  1. Nice video Ralph. I’m heading to Cayuga Lake state park with the kayak Labor Day weekend. Have you ever used a drift sock? I fear I won’t be able to hold my position. Any thoughts?

  2. Great video and beautiful fish. You reply to every comment and question which is outstanding and very kind of you. About 30 years ago I used to pull copper in 90 feet of water in Seneca and would always catch Lake Trout. I am just starting jigging like this in Keuka about 2 miles from the South end. I have pretty much the same exact jighead but even on dead calm days my line seems to go way to the side, not straight down. I even put a half ounce slip sinker on the line. Also, do you have any videos showing the fish finder screen as you drop down, jig and retrieve?
    Plus, do you zoom to say just the bottom 20 feet? Thanks!

  3. Another excellent video, Thanks for sharing! I fished a bunch of the finger lakes this summer with the kayak trying to vertical jig. I have yet to catch a fish but am not giving up!

  4. Great vid Ralph. Fished Cayuga this summer on a charter. We caught lakers from 12lbs to 8 lbs. It was phenomenal. They hit riggers, dipsy and lead core. Can you tell us a little about your fish finder. Was that a probe or your transducer?

  5. Love your video's. Did you mark fish at that depth? I'm new to this lake. What tips would you be willing to share? Like for example where are you on the lake, south? central? North?

  6. Awesome video Ralph! Like everyone else in the comments, I've never landed a Laker haha. Cool to see somebody catching them out the same kayak that I own though haha, I know it's possible now.
