A quick heads up.

Boat Ramp at Wellington State Park (Newfound Lake) Closure for Deicing Protection of Dock Pilings

 

BRISTOL, N.H. – Beginning early on Monday, February 29, the public boat access facility to Newfound Lake at Wellington State Park in Bristol, NH will be closed to accommodate deicing protection of the dock pilings at the ramp. The deicing process will create open water at the ramp so that snow machine, OHRV and pedestrian traffic will not be safe and will be prohibited.  Access to bob houses will not be available through this location.

 

The deicing procedure is preparation for a project this spring to upgrade the dock piling anchor system so that in future years deicing will not be necessary. The piling upgrade project will take about a month and is planned for a period in April and May with open water to accommodate the placement of a work barge.  During the project the ramp will be in the work area.  There will be no opportunity to launch or retrieve boats during this time period.

 

New Hampshire's Public Boat Access Program is funded through boat registration fees and federal Sport Fish and Wildlife Restoration funds.  Fish and Game's Facilities Construction and Lands Division acquires land for public water access sites, refurbishes existing sites and builds new public boat access areas.  For more information on boating access locations in NH visit www.wildnh.com/maps/boatfish/index.html

With that info provided, which launch does the gathering take place out of?
- In every walk with nature, every hunt, every fishing trip....one receives far more than he seeks.

Jiggin is currently talking with the conservation officers up there about it.

If We don't have access to the Wellington? The Gathering will take place at the base/foot of the lake. Which is the South end.

They will leave the gate open for the ice shanty gathering however the shore line is broken up which means access to the ice could be iffy. We could bring planks if needed but only foot traffic.
 Right now Psycho and I are going to take a ride and check it out. Will report back  with an update

 So I just got back with Psycho checking the Wellington boat launch.  Fish n game was there as well.
  We still have access to Wellington parking lot for the gathering and they're going to leave the gate open.
 However getting onto the ice with any vehicles is going to be extremely difficult.  The shoreline is garbage And with the weather coming in for this week its not looking promising. 
 There might be access  onto the ice via foot travel, Psycho and I are looking into building a bridge at the Canoe access  with some long planks  this week.  More on this later.
  Your call NHTF.

Update***

The TEAM NH GET TOGETHER IS ON as scheduled!

I spoke with Jiggin tonight. He spoke with the local conservation officers up at Newfound and they will have the gate at Wellington State Park OPEN for us for our Gathering on March 12, 2016.

Jiggin and many (approx 20+) of the Newfound Circus Members will be there as well as many others that have contacted me in one way or another (40++)

As of right now there is still plenty of fishable ice on Newfound. However No One accurately predict what it will be like in a week+ 

If You choose to fish Please Use Caution and Check conditions as You go as You would on any water body towards the end of the season.

Regardless of Ice conditions most people have stated they will be there regardless for the BBQ and Raffle. A Big part of the Get Together is to put a name with a face and meet many of the other members here on the site.

Hope to See You all There!

Stay Tuned for more on an Updated Raffle Prize list as it is Growing!!!  ;)

fyi,

The boat launch will most likely have a bubbler running so access at the launch itself is highly doubtful especially with any type of atv or snowmobile. It is best to stay away from that area.

Might be able to get on at the canoe access but as NHTF mentions, it is too far away to predict. Although cold now, we have some warm weather and high winds coming.
Psycho and I plan to build a plank bridge to help access via foot traffic next friday evening if deemed accessible but again hard to tell at this point. Once the bubblers start running, it may open up at the canoe access too.

For those of you not familiar with Newfound Lake, The foot of the lake (south end) should have accessibility away from the river, you can park on the side of the road to fish. Other areas, I'm not too sure about so as always use caution and your best judgement.

Cheers!

Trying to work out a way to go... if I can, it'd be the same for me... no fishing, would just like to meet the Shanty crew and shake a few hands. Last year I had a wedding to attend, this year it's on my bro's birthday... My mother threatened physical violence if I missed either and despite her being 75... I'm still afraid of her lol.

I'll be there enjoyed it last year! Just who ever brought there wife that won all the prizes feel free leave some to us this year LOL

I feel the need to clarify; nobody brought "the wife who won all the prizes". That was Ladybug, who brought her own bad self there. Some of us know how to fish without help.  ;)

She and I are both planning to show up to socialize later in the morning. I sometimes wonder if anyone missed me at all this year (lol), I have only been out 3 times this year, mainly due to just having bought a house and not really being prepared moving in mid-winter. I never really got my gear in order either. But.....I always have my disorganized stuff with me, so who knows?

I look forward to seeing everyone!

Have to buy some chances on Roccus' plugs. ;D

I feel so stupid asking this...but figured if I was going to fish I'd be there at dawn.
Well, I'm not planning to fish but would like to connect some faces with handles.
What would be a good time to show up?
When does the crowd dissipate?
Thanks in advance. looking forward to it.
