Booked up after a few years of having it on the expanded destination list. Looking forward to it. High risk, high reward.  ;D

Noob question here, but what species are you targeting on the guided trips? We fished Champlain last year and loved it and the family wants to do another ice fishing trip this year.

Hi Buddy, We mainly target Walleye and Perch but the Pike and Lake Trout are great fishing as well.

Hey Mike! Good to hear from you..  We have some ice forming in some of the siacked areas but hopefully we can get a little lucky and have ourselves something to fish on around New Years. I guess we'll see. Shouldn't be much longer before we can be on some inland spots tho. Maybe we can get a good report out of Ron and do a Lake John trip over Christmas.. Talk soon

Hey Louis. Hope you are well Sir! Looking forward to the trip. Doing some waaaay too early planning and gear inspection. What line would you recommend for walleye there? Thinking 10# flouro leader but unsure about main line.

Never too early my friend! Lol... I use 10lb Suffix 832 braided line to a 10-12lb Fluoro leader, sized so the leader ends before getting spooled when I hang the hook on the hook keeper. I also really like the Ultra 8 Carrier Superline by Berkley in 10lb as well.
See ya soon!

This looks to be about a hour north of Pulaski, made that trip many times from central pa.  Been asked to go along this season with my ice buds, recommend for a healthy 70 year old?

We fished with Louis 2 years ago for mainly perch.  We had 6 people that went to stay with him and all I can say is it was absolutely phenomenal.  Louis was very knowledgeable with fishing that area and was very friendly and accommodating to everyone.   We caught so many perch it was crazy.  In the 2 days of fishing, we caught over 1000 perch.  Size ranged from 4 inches to 13.5 inches.  Was a blast when they came into the hole, would hook up as soon as would get down the hole.  We are looking at another trip later in the season again, but several of us work in health care so not sure if can get off work.  It was definitely nice to have the snow machine cause was a decent drag with the snow on ice and also with the cold temps.  Can't go wrong with his guiding service.  Nez

Just got home from fishing Chaumont with Louis the past 3 days. Top notch. Highly recommend it if you want to catch a trophy walleye.

 I lost a SLOB the first day. Rest of the trip had them pretty sluggish due to the artic blast but guys were still picking trophy eyes. The 13# fish caught on Friday was within a stones throw of our shanty. Today we pulled to new grounds with another group from the lodge and the other group got a 27” beauty. Had to tuck tail and run home to beat the snow.

Louis knows his stuff. Super knowledgeable and helpful for anglers of all experience levels. Genuinely loves to fish and put people on fish. It shows.

Also met so many great people and die hard anglers at the lodge. Gotta be dedicated to fish -12!  ;D

 Pulled hook on the shiver minnow first day was a heartbreaker, but had it on for a good minute and it was doing whatever it wanted. Guaranteed slob. Amazing fight. I will be back to get it!!! 

Thanks Lou! Keep up the great work Sir! Looking forward to the next one.

Made my last ice trip of the year to the same place as my first. Bomb cyclone be damned. Stayed with Lou and fished all day Sat and Sun am with a buddy. We lucked out on the cyclone but moving around in the wind was not too fun on Saturday. Started out by Herrick and my buddy set on a big creature first thing but the hook slipped. Ice out there was starting to rot from the bottom. From there it was pretty tough. Moved in shallower but just perch here and there. Started closer to duck bay on sun am and had some walleye cruising but wouldn’t commit. Better perch action with some nice ones coming up to say hello. Even got a bonus pickerel that gave a spirited fight. Moved to the other side of a hump and played with some rovers for a bit. Assumed they were perch. Just as a snow squall started creeping in I was marking with looked like 2 perch until it wasn’t…. Hookset determined it was an elusive golden eyewall. 25.5” and a new pb. Perfect placeholder until next year! Will be back and ready to conquer a giant. Thanks Lou, keep up the good work buddy!
