Sounds great guys I think the 31st works best. Ill set that as our date!

The lake is in Lycoming County about an hour an half from the New York state line. In the center of the North Central part of the state.

Rose valley has some amaying perch, if you can find them. I found one dead last year just a touch under 16 inches. I figure with this many good ice fisherman, we should be able to pin point a school or 2.

This cold streak has me excited

I want to keep with a different lake each year I think that's a good idea that way we can draw different people.

How far is Williamsport from RV? Also last year there was a guy on here who had a cabin very close by that offered to have people stay over.

I live in Williamsport and RV lake is only 15 miles from here. There are a ton of places for people to stay in town. I think they built 2 new hotels this year alone. as for space, RV is my loal lake and there is quite a bit of area for everyone to fish. Easy access as well.

let them find out for themselves about the perch action. you dont want this lake to become the next lake jean.

the 31st might work for me. If i can get unpacked from the honeymoon intime to gather everything up and get over there

Jigerman I don't think you need to worry about your perch fishing! I know I will not be fishing the lake to keep fish on that day but to meet some new friends and a few old ones. I understand your concern but after all what is this site for to help people out in catching the fish I don't think anyone of the guys that will be coming to this gathering is going to kill your perch fishing the lakes go through cycles.

r.v perch and gills have been down for years now, due to " overtaking of fish". Just like hunting state game lands, this lake is not what it USED to be. Now its starting to effect the bass populations. Too many people have kept 2 many bass over the past 5 years, used to be able to catch 17,18inch fish per trip, now your lucky to get 1 legal fish, which is 15inches. anyone who fishes tourneys up here knows that. seen plenty of times people with bass limits of 14inch fish, and they say " close enough for me". Thats a bunch of crap!

Howdy Boys, Just drove by Rose Valley yesterday and the back bays had a little ice. It wont be long now. Icy Jay and I are planning to attend. Hope to see you all there Good Fishin' Newberry

Hope to see you NewBerry and Icy Jay.

Beer Idk what the heck you would keep bass for anyway. They don't even taste good!!

I eat a few perch and gills from my home lakes but I killed one bass the entire ice fishing season last year and none this summer.

I know all to well that lakes go through biologic cycles.

I did not say that the gathering itself will hurt the perch population it will not even begin to put a hurt in the population of the lake. the thing that will hurt the perch is the the many fish that will be caught from word of mouth. one person catches and keeps a few decent perch and they bring all there friends the next trip and then if the fish cooperate then they catch and keep a few big perch. each of those people go back an tell one of their friends about the great perch fishing, and then they go back and get some more the next time they got out. and dont forget the person that will go to the tackle store or gander mountian and tell a few guys the report. and the "cycle" goes on and on for a few years and the population of the perch or any other fish that they are targeting gets decimated to a population that will take years for it to even come close to matching the day that the one big perch was caught that started it all.

How's that for a cycle. Anyways I never said that there were alot good sized perch in the lake or even that the fishing for them was great. What was meant by " the perch action" was that there is some but very limited big ones in the lake. It would not take much to vripple the lake.

I might show up in the am for the get together or i might show up towards dusk to get some walleyes, I hear they do good at night off the south launch in 20 foot of water durring the last 30 minutes of daylight and the first 2 hours of dark.

I would not waste a good Saturday on Rose Valley

marshrat · « **Reply #51 on:** Dec 16, 2008, 09:26 AM »

Well Chuck I guess dont come then but I already have about 30 people that want to go so !

GrnDay33 · « **Reply #52 on:** Dec 16, 2008, 03:15 PM »

Rose Valley is a good place to get together. There is a lot of room to fish, and park. The fishing isn't anything to write home about. Everyone should have a good time.

BrewCrew27 · « **Reply #53 on:** Dec 16, 2008, 05:35 PM »

Icewagon,,,, I fish r.v. all the time, its only a 15 mile drive. If i had to drive any further, i wouldnt fish this lake either. If u want to catch fish, its not going to happen here, but you if want to get out and just have a good time, then attend the party.

JiggerMan · « **Reply #54 on:** Dec 16, 2008, 07:17 PM »

brew

to catch fish you have to know were to go on this lake. Some times it can be great chasing flags all day for Pickeral and bass. If you target certian fish then it is harder to fish. you can do well on walleye and perch pretty much anyday. I dont think i have ever been skunked on this lake. The fishing i would say is average.

JM

I am driving almost three hours to fish it. I probably wont fish hard untill later in the day though. I am mainly going because I love to fish this lake. You never know what you may catch.

danielemt · « **Reply #55 on:** Dec 17, 2008, 09:05 AM »

i also live about an hour to an hour and fifteen minutes away. myself and two other friends are planning on being there. catching fish is great, thats why your there. not just to stand on an ice cube and be cold. but even if you dont catch anything the fun of being out with many other guys who love to do the same thing you do. and the part of just getting out. remember "THE WORSE DAY FISHING IS BETTER THEN THE BEST DAY AT WORK!!!"

so just come enjoy the day met new ppl and see what they are using, look at the new toys they are using, tell some stories and just have fun!
