Hi,

I've never fished Carry bay. I was wondering where people fishing Carry bay park their cars to get on ice?

Thanks,

There’s no official launch area just park on the side of the road and walk out. However if people keep driving campers out there and tearing up the shore like last year I don’t know how much longer that access will be public

You mean alongside route 2?

ice fiend · « **Reply #3 on:** Dec 18, 2017, 11:17 AM »

I think so I’m terrible with route names

I checked on Google earth and it's the only road anyway...lol

Thanks for the cue!

Are you talking about the bay at the bridge to go into ny? If so there is a roadside lot to park.

I have never seen a camper on carry bay lol

Was multiple campers last year.

Yeah, lots of people accessing it right by the little shed. Tearing up the ground hauling fish houses with wheelers. But that's the only way to get on. Be sure to have your paperwork because that's where the state loves to check.

ice fiend · « **Reply #11 on:** Dec 19, 2017, 01:26 PM »

Yup wardens check that spot very often

On Carry Bay? I must of missed them since I didn't fish it until late February.

Yes. One big one towards the end of the season.

It is always nice to ask the land owner 1 st.,before you cross there land.

troutcrazy · « **Reply #15 on:** Dec 21, 2017, 11:01 AM »

I talked with one of the landowners last summer. Nice folks. They are actually taking a risk by letting us use their land for ice fishing access, in terms of liability and insurance.

They're letting it happen under the radar. I'm even reluctant to talk about it here, but since the cat is out of the bag it seems more important to urge everyone to be respectful and low-impact on their land.

To clarify: they're not giving explicit permission to use their land for access. But they're not posting it, either. (also, They don't want it used in the summer)

Lol they screwed up the culvert and filled it full of gravel last summer gonna need to be fixed

Champlain Islander · « **Reply #17 on:** Dec 25, 2017, 08:39 AM »

That was a new culvert just about 3 years ago. I think the current carries gravel in.

ice fiend · « **Reply #18 on:** Dec 26, 2017, 08:06 AM »

The camp by where everybody parks took a excavator to try and improve their property and ended up filling in most of that deep pool and most of the culvert with gravel state is going to need to fix it....again

Heard there were dozens of cars at Carry today - anyone have a report? Looking to poke around there tomorrow for panfish.

dbldnii · « **Reply #20 on:** Dec 30, 2017, 06:52 PM »

I don’t know about dozens of cars. Didn’t see one actually. But the ice is a good 8-10 if you’re thinking of driving in it.

Capn Ez · « **Reply #21 on:** Jan 21, 2018, 07:34 AM »

Any updates? Bringing some first timers up in a couple weeks. Hoping to get on and stay on some fish.

ice fiend · « **Reply #22 on:** Jan 21, 2018, 07:38 AM »

The panfish are there gotta work to get em but if ya hole hop you should do well got ten pound in a few hours last Wednesday word got around they were there I guess

Capn Ez · « **Reply #23 on:** Jan 22, 2018, 06:40 AM »

Thanks, man. Any like or bass in the mix?

ice fiend · « **Reply #24 on:** Jan 22, 2018, 06:45 AM »

A lot of bass i mean a lottttt of bass caught a lot of them

Capn Ez · « **Reply #25 on:** Jan 22, 2018, 01:56 PM »

Hahaha...ok. That's great news. I've caught MANY big largemouth there and a few nice smallies from time to time. Anybody fishing out by the mouth of it or just back in the bay? I mostly stay away from the the passage side during winter because the current is so strong there. Never know how the ice is and always have to be careful and spud constantly, but the fish love that moving water.

ice fiend · « **Reply #26 on:** Jan 22, 2018, 03:11 PM »

I go by the staircase that comes down over the bank or out from the flagpole

Capn Ez · « **Reply #27 on:** Feb 11, 2018, 07:14 AM »

Any updates on Carry? How's the ice? How's the fishing?

VTMatt · « **Reply #28 on:** Feb 11, 2018, 12:38 PM »

Bite was pretty good for panfish and largemouth. Have to hole hop to fill a bucket but a surprise 3-4 lb bass is fun. Almost nobody there yesterday. 30 cars on db though.

Capn Ez · « **Reply #29 on:** Feb 12, 2018, 06:23 AM »

Anybody driving onto Carry? If so, from where??
