Hot Knot!

Never tie an improved clinch again!

It's known as the Pitzen or Sixteen-Twenty knot.  It's too good not to share!  I haven't tied an improved clinch in months and I simply love this knot.  Here are two links: Pitzen knot and Sixteen-Twenty knot.  The second link (pdf warning) is easier to follow, while the first makes a better final product,  I prefer the smaller angle created by the tag.

The Cayuga Fisher- Fishing in Ithaca and the Finger Lakes

Welcome!  The Finger Lakes provide a simply beautiful setting to enjoy fishing and the outdoors.  My home water is Cayuga Lake, the longest and second deepest, and I spend most of my fishing time trying to unlock its secrets.  From the lakes to the streams, trout to carp, fishing in this area can be excellent all year. Take a look around and enjoy!

The 2008 spring season is here!  Birds are arriving and the days are lengthening, it's time to get out there and bask in the improving weather!

The Cayuga Fisher is a resource for lake and fly fishermen on Cayuga Lake, the greater Finger Lakes area, and beyond.  This is a one-man effort, so it's slowly coming together.  Suggestions, comments, questions, tips, any emails of that nature can be submitted via the link at the bottom of the page. Thanks for stopping by and good luck!
