[Bean]

Are you a traveler or not?

[polarfisher]

i want to go to other loacl lakes but never got around to it. the fishing was toooo good on my lake

[icejunky]

I have 4 standard lakes that I fish each year, (Bay of Quinte, Jack's Lake, Dickey Lake, Dog Lake) but I try to mix in one or two new lakes as well...last year was simcoe for a overnight trip and this year it will be up in the Haliburton region

[GAMBELL]

I have 6 bodies of water here in Western New York that I fish.  They are Braddock bay (first in the are to get ice), Honeoye Lake, Conesus lake, Canadice lake, Hemlock lake and Irondequoit bay.

[hard_water]

I try to get out at least 3 times a week. and at least 2 times a month it is out of town to different lakes. I live in western ma. and I will travel all over the state, Vermont, New York, and New Hampshire looking for a bigger pike. Yes I have a fishing problem!(((((FLAG)))))

Are you a traveler or not?

Yes, we sort of follow the conditions of the year. Some lakes have better access than others because of their shape, long, wide, etc;to the winds or just because they are used more and the paths are better packed down. The deeper lakes have some good green weeds and so forth, but most of all enjoy the scenery change. Yeah, the path of least resistance usually yields more enjoyment for us IMO. Definitely traveler.

Being in the S.C. area of the state, ice is usually late getting here when we do get it, so that means I have to go where there is ice. Whether it is in the N.E/N.C/N.W. or whichever part(s) of the state have ice.

[perchking4ever]

I have 4 main lakes I fish,(Glass lake, Crystal lake,Richards lake,and my buddy's privet pond). I try to get to at least 15 different lakes every year.

[flagrunner]

   I have 4 lakes that i mainly fish, Indian,Long,Eaton, and Tupper Lake.Tupper is about 125 miles from home.

[kimball07]

i hit as many as i can, usually more than 10, but mostly crystal, highland,

[jeepsw1]

I usually fish more than 16, I don't have what i consider a home or favorite lake, and have found good fishing at least a dozen lakes, and then there are always new lakes to explore.  Seeems like every year there is at least 1 or 2 that i didn't make it to.  I travel at least an  hour or more 1/2 the times i fish

[holeinhide]

3 lakes in my local area (if they get safe ice) and one long range trip.

[mmb]

Last year I was on three, but this year I hope to make it to at least 6 different lakes.

With Lake Saint Helen, Higgins Lake and Houghton Lake within an hour drive, I should make some time to get out and about.

[Master Angler]

I have 6 that I fish mostly, and within a half hour drive, 2 within 5 min., 1 at 10 min, 1 at 15 min., and 2 at 30 min.  So i don't travel much.  I do fish up to 10-12 lakes per year, but usually only once a season for half of them.  I do make one long range trip (3 hr drive) at last ice for afew days. 

[WARRIOR_ON_ICE]

My pattern is pretty well set after 20 years of ice fishing. I live in Beacon, NY and travel to Warren Co. to fish regularly Loon Lake, Lake George and an unnamed small reservoir. Very occassionally, not even annually, I will ice fish on southern lake Champlain. Closer to home I have really just 2 reservoirs that I bother going to - the West Branch res. in Carmel, NY and the Amawalk res. in Somers, NY. So my answer is 6.

[RLWagner]

I have three primary lakes that offer up limits most days, but I also like to hit some bigger waters like St Claire and Erie or Huron for different species. Then I make it a point to explore at least two new locations a year and then hit a few others that are hit or miss.

[1MOFISH]

i uasually fish 2 lakes but with the price of gas alot of lakes are closer to home i fish wilhelm- arthur -hereford manor -marshall -north park -pymy-cranberry glade-conneaut-black moshannon-  mo

[baldy]

In New Mexico, my choices are limited.  I usually fish 1 here and make a couple trips to Colorado to fish with Dad at a couple lakes.

[Van_Cleaver]

How many lakes I fish has a lot to do with how cold it gets in the southeast. The closest big lake to me is 35 min. away, and when (if) she gets tight there usually isn't any reason to burn more gas. I like to get up to Promised Land and Shohola early on, and late as well. Sometimes I'll hit Scotts, Hopewell, or Antetiem, depending on conditions. So, three on a slow season, probably six on a good ice year.

[deadsmelthead]

I have 2 lakes I fish just about every week and they are Delta Lake and 4th Lake of the fulton chain of lakes, usually I sneak a couple new spots to try every year.

[Sven936]

Last year was about 20 different lakes.....    A couple were regular, but I fished a lot of different lakes.

[fishfry]

3 or 4

[crappiekid24]

I fished 2 last year and plan to hit more this year.

[pickeral boy]

10 to 15.

[sticks]

I was only able to hit 4 different lakes and ponds last year, but im hoping to be able to hit a few more this year including, Crystal lake, Bryant Pond, Highland, Sebago, Otter Ponds, and Panther Pond. I'll probably try a few days trips out a little farther away from home.  Let me know if your interested in hookin up and hitting a body of hardwater this winter.
