Alive!!!?!!!!When ice fishing??
It's with the publicity from the contest and all the yahoos from Bumfrap Egypt that decide to try this famous Sliver Lake.
a lot of guys i fish with and myself personally fish that lake. that lake is just too small to have that big of a tourny on it. as far as i c it silver gets enough pressure on it as it. why cant they just move it to a bigger lake. the can handel the fishing pressure. like chautauqua.
I can not believe that this thread made it to three pages. This site is supposed to be positive for the sport of ice fishing. All of this negativity is really boiling my blood. I am firm believer in the fact that nobody owns the water or the woods. They are here for all to enjoy. Not just someone who lives on the lake. Sure, there are respect issues like not hunting in a tree next to a guy in his tree stand or drilling a hole next to another fisherman, or zipping by a fisherman with your boat that need to obided by. It is these negative mentalities that are the reasons for everyone posting their woods and restricting access to fishing holes through "their turf." Maybe everyone should keep fisherman out of their lakes and the only ones who can enjoy them must be locals. I can read the headlines now, "American's no longer allowed on Simcoe as they may catch too many fish." What a shame a world like that would be. I believe topics like that have started a few wars. I wish people would promote the finger lakes a little more. I wish everyone who loves fishing could experience them. Not to mention, boost our economy by staying in hotels, shopping, eating out, etc. I pray that guests on this site do not view this thread and think of us as a selfish group. I hope they will not as this is the first poor thread I have seen in 6 years.
And, sometimes threads like these are good for fishing and fishermen, as they allow differing opinions to be stated and read, and we all learn from it.
No financial impact for Perry??..........Try to get a motel/hotel room for that weekend. Ask the hotel/motel owner how many rooms they had available for that weekend two years ago. Same goes for Pizza shops, Bait shops, Restaurants, etc.
I posed the question earlier in this thread about the Whitney Point tourney, but haven's gotten an answer. Is there a limit of fish you can possess - or can you catch your limit of crappies and enter only the largest few. Do you have to keep your catch alive so that smaller fish can be culled and released? If they fish that tourney under different rules than it is like comparing apples to oranges.
Ice Team runs a respectable Tournament. They care about the resource they are using. There are certain rules, as mentioned earlier, that prohibit over harvesting. THEY ARE ETHICAL I am from NY and respect my resources, but if you look back to last year on the NY reports and conditions, you will find that Silver was one of the most active lakes if not THE most active. If you want to keep "your lake" from being exploited, then stop bragging about it.Or is that another thread
