Eastern did you park at the marina and get on there? Wassnt sure if anyone would give you any problems, it seems pretty provate
Looks like you were closer to the open water than I was....sounded like a train though when the wind was blowin'.I'm addicted to perch...got a laker , 2 nice bass a cisco and lost another laker jigging perch today. I get just enough taste of catching other fish so I don't bother jiggin' for lakers
Jon can't be at 22. He only has 20 fingers and toes
fishwd the same bay combsey fished. got a dozen slab perch. 3 lakers and 1 salmon. pics to come
man it was a bit nerve racking when the wind kicked up and the ice was making those noises,then got real sketchy when we started loosing ice and the ice seem to sink in certain spots.idk what happen just not so obsessed with perch this year like past years,but don't worry left with a full pale today
Fished out of Huletts today. 4-5" black ice all the way out to the middle. Laker bite shut off around 10. Slow day with a lot of wind. Great to be back on the ice.
. MeLworm is it true they used mats to kill off the weed beds in harris bay want to make the trip up for perch driving from oneonta just asking if the perch are still there if all weed beds are gone
I like that spot..how far out? I only caught big perch out there last time even though i was set up for lakers
walked on the ice at about 630 yesterday strait out from the beach at hearthstone. we ran tip ups from about 70 ft to a 100fow. had 3 flags by 730 with 2 short lakers to show for it. I want to say thank you to those who have given me tips on jigging lakers. Got 4 yesterday on the jigging rod and will be back first thing Saturday morning to try to get my numbers up. what a great time that is.
Well I joined the " iPhone down the hole " club today. Snagged two lakers and left with 41 perch. Perch were getting bigger when I decided to test the " gravitational pull " an ice hole has theory. Gets it every time. And by it I mean anything you drop while ice fishing lol. I dropped down right after and nailed a pig. Had to leave couldn't take it, tomorrow I'm going to try a camera see if I can snag it. Still ringing not going straight to voicemail so there's hope. Or at least the otter box is salvageable.
