Fly the Team Iceshanty Flag! Iceshanty Proshop
So we pay taxes to the same. I own property in the hamlet of cranberry. Stay home? My house is 30 miles away and iv already fished cranberry more than you. And I'm not sure where you get off calling me a poacher? My entire start of this conversation was in a nice attempt to try to conserve a trophy pike lake, and hoping the dec would make better regulations to do just that. I certainly would not be keeping all the pike out of there. Take meaurements and stick them back down the hole. Eat the little ones
Thanks, I think most people who know Cranberry know there isn't a "hot spot" You have to fish it alot to bring in anything. 100 people could setup in the same area and not have a flag all day. There are not a ton of pike in there for the size of the lake, they are not easy to catch, and for every 10 people who get a big one on the hook, 1 will make it out on the ice...... Like I said, I wasn't there, I didn't take these pics. They were shared time and time again on facebook and thought people here would like to see them, I know I appreciate a pic of someone else's big fish, and I don't go right out there and setup next to them just because they caught one, seams kinda ignorant to me... Hopefully others will just enjoy the pics, and not try and poach their way in, but I guess there are those types out there.... But rest assured, these guys don't necessarily fish right out the door of the shanty, thats just base camp, not necessarily the fishing hole and its very movable.....
You brag about living 8 miles away, and yet have not fished it yet. And then post your buddies trophy fish with their shanty all over the internet blowing up their hotspot. If you were my friend, you would never be told where we were catching fish again, or be invited....I know from the names of the shanty, at least one of them is on ice shanty, and he didnt post these pics, I wonder why? How do you think they will feel when they go to their permanent shanty this weekend and there are 50 out of towners posted up in front of it? I wont post again, just something for you to think about.
