The bubblers at Trident are keeping it completely open, way more so than I've seen in the past. I don't know if it's this crappy winter or if they supercharged their system. We accessed further South and found good ice everywhere, from 4-7 inches with a mix of black and white depending on where you were. I have no idea about Sandy Bottom. Fishing was slow - lots of dink perch.

Spot on with the dink perch all 3 of us caught last saturday north end

Thoughts on how the ice will hold over this next week?

ERIEPERCH · « **Reply #963 on:** Feb 26, 2020, 05:28 PM »

Be safe boys. Getting sloppy but still managed some gills and an eye

perryt · « **Reply #964 on:** Feb 28, 2020, 04:42 AM »

I'll be there Saturday morning ……….

ERIEPERCH · « **Reply #965 on:** Mar 01, 2020, 07:15 PM »

Possibly last day on ice today. Last limit of eyes

I thought I would bring thread back into play. Has anyone got the good info on that truck that went through a couple a days ago?

Yea I’d like to know what happened too... I got a feeling it was a “hold my beer and watch this” moment from the bar. Cuz if I’m not mistaken that’s right around log cabin. Ain’t it? Bar at trident?

I have a video on my phone from Superbowl Sunday 2 years ago of a guy driving mid lake from one end to the other going about 100mph in a Ford explorer. He beeped and waived got on and off at the marina where the little bar/ restaurant is.
It was pretty awesome, didn't know what the hell that sound was till I opened up the hut and stepped out.

I was off trident that evening. Remember that well. Got a limit of craps that evening too

How has the fishing been on Honeoye, I went a few days ago, caught a small Perch over an hour Span and left. Curious as to where to go to on the lake. That was the only time I’ve ever been there.

bills25 · « **Reply #971 on:** Feb 03, 2021, 12:33 PM »

Anyone get any crappie out deep yet?

jhl4661 · « **Reply #972 on:** Feb 03, 2021, 01:07 PM »

it has been terrible for them. last two years have been slow

Pequod1 · « **Reply #973 on:** Feb 03, 2021, 03:13 PM »

Two years ago, there was a slaughter there during the spawn back in the reeds in the south shore. I bet that has something to do with it. In a couple trips there this year I have caught a dozen craps and not one of them over 7". Hopefully, there is a good supply of young ones for two years from now.

the same for myself and my friends with 5 to 7 inch calicoes . this ice season (last 2 weeks) together we total 30 or so dinks. last bunch of spring runs just look at the parking lot,filled up to the road ...me included. Even early summer catches maybe with 3 guys in the boat we were happy with 15 to 20 keepers at best . pressure pressure pressure !!!

rgfixit · « **Reply #975 on:** Feb 03, 2021, 04:18 PM »

And everyone is complaining about the proposed changes to the size and limits.

Mossy10 · « **Reply #976 on:** Feb 03, 2021, 04:41 PM »

I don’t think the pressure has increased it’s been that way as long as I can remember.

FingerLaker607 · « **Reply #977 on:** Feb 03, 2021, 06:18 PM »

Not everyone rg...just the predictable few. The comment above doesn't even think there's more pressure these days

Makes you wonder how much time some people even spend fishing or outdoors.

rgfixit · « **Reply #978 on:** Feb 03, 2021, 06:26 PM »

I guess so.
I’ve fished Honeoye for 40 years or so. There’s good and bad. Take it for what you get. That’s fishing.

bills25 · « **Reply #979 on:** Feb 03, 2021, 06:42 PM »

I’m going to give it a go either way Ive done well there. Is there any access closer to deep water, I’m thinking tridents the closest?

Mossy10 · « **Reply #980 on:** Feb 03, 2021, 06:48 PM »

Lol ok fingerlaker. Back in the 80s guys would take buckets to the city to sell couldn’t find a place to park in the old lot. Look in the mirror bout who fishes.

Checked out the new bait shop Doc's bait and tackle, 8960 main street. Very impressed Nice shop. Great selection of fishing and hunting supplies live bait. Great assortment of ice rods.

elmerross · « **Reply #982 on:** Feb 04, 2021, 01:29 PM »

They have the most ice fishing stuff then most box stores. Tons of tungsten jig's and the freshest bait around!!!!

bills25 · « **Reply #983 on:** Feb 04, 2021, 08:44 PM »

Have honeoye a go for crappies fished from 330-730 caught 5 crappie after it got dark. Nothing marking suspended until it got dark then they moved in. There was at least one fish on my screen the whole time from 6-730, suspended 3ft off bottom but they weren’t interested. Every once in awhile a Gish would come through suspended 10-15ft off bottom and those were the fish threat were caught. There still in there just finicky spring bobber is key.

bills25 · « **Reply #984 on:** Feb 04, 2021, 08:46 PM »

Correction 6-830 the craps were caught

By lantern light?
Just curious. I was out last night also. South end. Had a steady pick of gills from 5pm-9. Fired up the lantern just before dark and the crappie were steady until 9 as well. Probably could’ve kept it going but I had work in the morning. Gills off the bottom, crappie 5 foot below the light.

Fished Friday 1:00 to 5:30 thank god for the 4 wheeler! 5" of black 3" of white on top with 3" of slush. Made it out to 22 FOW caught some Jumbos on tip downs and few jigging. The bit was light with a lot of lookers. I will be there again today with family and friends for our yearly Tournament. The winds will be blowing!! Yee Ha!

Palmyraslim · « **Reply #988 on:** Feb 09, 2021, 08:22 AM »
