So are all they bait shops done selling suckers in the southern LG area?

Sounds like the US is out due to ponds in South Dakota being completly frozen. They sure are losing a lot of money by not having any.

Went out into the narrows yesterday morning from Vet's. Still great access and conditions. Pressure crack in Sawmill is starting to open up but just pick your spot and give it some gas

Perch bite was solid and ended up with quite a few hoggers in the bucket. Saw a handful of other wheelers around the islands.

How do you guys think access at harris/assembly point will be Friday am? Worried cuz of rain and want to play hookey from work.

Iceman · « **Reply #5734 on:** Mar 27, 2015, 10:26 AM »

We went out by the Scout cabins on Tuesday and it was solid in the morning but at 5 PM the ice settled and a pressure ridge formed from the point on the right all the way to the point on the left, water on the ice and we had 3' of good stuff to get off on. Not sure what it looks like after the rain but we figured that was our last trip out from that location.

There is no more ice in hague/ticonderoga.. the whole lake is wide open. put some gold fish in an ice tray, fill the trays with water...put in freezer and drill some holes in the morning see if you can get some goldies.... i hear perch eyes are working well.

Anybody have any updates on access points from today (saturday)?

I spent all week in the hospital with my daughter after back surgery but we are headed home today and i am hoping to sneak out tomorrow

Thanks!

JigSchtickGeorge · « **Reply #5740 on:** Mar 28, 2015, 09:41 AM »

I'll be checking some access later today. Possibly fishing I'll report back, but the fresh snow on the ice makes me nervous trying to cross any cracks, especially alone $:-\$

iceshantyrookie · « **Reply #5741 on:** Mar 28, 2015, 12:28 PM »

Headed up tomorrow... Gonna bring a board to cross the stress crack. Northern end

My access up here on north basin is going to be good for over a week probaly more. Got out today for perch, it was way too windy for the tip ups. Really had to sort through them and after a while stoppped getting so picky and got my limit plus 23" &24" lakers that went back. Walking was easy everything had hardened back up

lowaccord66 · « **Reply #5744 on:** Mar 28, 2015, 04:36 PM »

Nice post Berkley.

MikeVT · « **Reply #5745 on:** Mar 28, 2015, 04:40 PM »

I fished out of Blairs Bay today. Ice is the same as Berkely's picture. Pretty windy today, but the lakers are still there. Everything was in shallow, 50-70 feet. Shorelines are still solid. No one out today, had the whole place to myself. I'll be off to the Battenkill in little bit, see you next year.

TC5 · « **Reply #5746 on:** Mar 29, 2015, 05:10 AM »

Not a good feeling, I've been in up to my neck. It gives you a new appreciation of staying on top. Glad you're buddy made it out.we chose Piseco yesterday.

Anyone know how access is to PK? Any problem with the pressure ridge? Is getting there now from the beach with a quad an option? How's the perch bite been? I'm sure we didn't lose much ice from the 18" we had 1 1/2 weeks ago. Will probably start losing the shore soon. Planning to head up to the KING Tues. AM and considering heading out to PK. Wish there was still access out to Huddle Bay. Had a good year with perch out there this season. TKX ahead of time.

Pickeralpicker91 · « **Reply #5755 on:** Mar 30, 2015, 06:34 PM »

I was out there on saturday and the ice was getting bad fast and quite a bit of it was coming up in chunks when drilling and it was thinning from the bottom up as well due to currents. The pressure ridge was fine when I was there buy like I said, just because there is a lot of ice doesn't mean it's good ice.

Channel Z · « **Reply #5756 on:** Mar 31, 2015, 02:04 AM »

Pickeralpicker91, Thanks for the update. Will be leaving the quad home and do the hike out around the point north, hoping to get into perch. Will bring my board and spud ******d hoping I will not need to find out how good the full flotation suit works. Heading up in a few hours. Cheers!!!

I will probably pay for access. Trout House in Hague will let you on from their property if you stay with them.
