any ice?
« on: Feb 27, 2017, 07:42 AM »

      is 4th lake or 7th lake (n.y.) still fishable on the ice? I'm thinking of going there this coming weekend if it's still got ice. Thanks--


                                                                           :tipup:

Yup. It's still good on 7th. I read in the reports and conditions thread that the ice on 4th held up pretty good as well.. around 12 inches good black ice and 6 inches of white ice on top. There is some crap weather forecasted mid week but then cold again I think it will hold up just fine

Tblaster123, have you seen or heard how the 4th Lake shoreline is doing?

On the Fulton Chain of lakes thread for reports and conditions there has been a few recent posts.. it sounds like the shoreline is in ok shape, but obviously it is the first thing to go out.. I imagine its a bit soft but it's gonna get damn cold for a couple days/nights after Wednesdays rain everything should tighten back up nicely.

There are some nice brook trout in their.  We have had good luck at the mouth of a little brook that runs into the pond when the ice starts breaking up.  Fish bottom with worms.

Debating weather or not I want to fish 7th this weekend.. the ice looks a lot different than it did on Sunday when I was on it.. the shoreline has opened up in places.. hoping this cold snap will allow me to get out there one last time. I used to set up a plank and go out late in the season, but I learned the hard way to not do that.
