walleye waters???

[synergyboy10]

i would like to try and catch an eye though the ice this year. i fish chataqua a lot for the calicos but not for eyes can anyone give me some tips on how and were to catch some eyes. i know silver has them also but have never fished it during hardwater. but any info there would be great. thanks

[synergyboy10]

Early ice off of predergast point in chatauqua is usually pretty good.....at least I've had good luck there in the past.....long point can also be good

if your going to hit pendergast go straight out and dont go to far to the right snug harbor creek comes out there along with another in the next bay,ice can be very thin in front of those creeks trust me on that one almost went in got half my leg under.Warner bar and point chatauqua are good places to start.Jigging rapalas tipped with a minnow on the treble works best for me.perch and black and gold work pretty good.got my limit out of pt chatauqua the one year actually we ended up with 13 threw 3 back.

how about around the bell tower?

nick, cuba has good eyes by the dam under the ice, also the resevoir near quaker in onoville, past couple state records have come out of there

[perchwisher]

synergy cant say i ever tried by the bell tower and i cant say i even caught a walleye there in the summer! ive caught a few in the summer in front of we wan chu cottages and mission meadows is good but not sure how well it freezes over there! theres a hole there that drops close to 70 ft.Warner bar i like cause you can really cover alot of depths.

hey nick. another lake to try would be lime lake. have heard some desent things the past few yrs. not to mention the norlundge that are in there. just a thought.

No yellows in CUBA
heard those silver buddies (blade baits work well) in Chat. caught a nice musky thru the ice on one coupe years ago.
How about honeyeye, DEC thinks theres plenty in there
Silver along the pines on the east shore I have seen them but not caught em.

Norlunge? Is that what I think it is?
That would be one mean freakin' fish!

never heard of them called a norlunge!
arent they typically called tiger muskies?

[butterworm]

same thing oak. just a local term that we use around here.
