Do they get them mostly jigging or with tip-ups? I'm new to the area and I am just trying to get a feel for the lay of the land $:-\$

Yes.... but everyone I know usually targets the 'eyes with tipups and jigs for perch... I would like to try jigging for walleyes using my vex.

if your looking to catch panfish on bigbay try the middle of the bay go straight out from right awayabout 150 yards start there in 7 feet of water work your way to the mouth of the creek in about 5 feet of water . if there not there try the shore line where you get on at the whole shore not just a single spot about 30 yards off the land you well pick a few if there just slow. use rockers,demons and bettles, chartuses and orange are great colors for there.
watch out for the bigbay shuffle.

Let me know if you have any success this time of year. Ive never been skunked there till this past sunday. I couldnt even mark any on the vex. Tried all over the bay. I know the importance of mobility in BB. Just never fished it this late.

yep.. thats the south shore area I always talk/ask about, and its no good right now. Edges are shot.... and I would not have trusted the ice before this warm spell.

That was probably me that Scout57 was talking to the other day at Williams Beach. I cut 6 or 7 holes checking the ice. I stopped about 150yds offshore. That far out there was 2" of good ice.

bigbay crappie buster · « **Reply #51 on:** Feb 17, 2006, 06:07 PM »

cnyfishing · « **Reply #53 on:** Feb 18, 2006, 10:44 PM »

I drove by yesterday and the lake was all slush

I don't think that this is the year for Oneida

mustad · « **Reply #54 on:** Feb 18, 2006, 10:48 PM »

look like short bay is fishable,but you need to know someone that lives there to get access.

bigbay crappie buster · « **Reply #55 on:** Feb 19, 2006, 08:26 PM »

ice in bay heard there was a few guys out in front of boat house but not sure, i would give it a day or two before venturing out.let the snow melt and turn to ice.

cnyfishing · « **Reply #56 on:** Feb 20, 2006, 02:37 PM »

I fished off of Sylvan beach today. There was anywhere from 4 to 12 inches of ice, mostly all good and clear. I only marked a few fish in the 4 hours I was there. Very windy too.

RedWolfUSAF · « **Reply #57 on:** Feb 20, 2006, 03:26 PM »

Good to hear there's ice... bummer to hear of the lack of fish. Funny how they're there one day and gone the next. Were there many guys out today?

bigbay crappie buster · « **Reply #58 on:** Feb 20, 2006, 06:09 PM »

from reports i see we are in for a cold next week and the follwing one too there will be plenty of ice for march hopefully we get to april killing them big blues and craps......
the lake has ice on it wether its good ice is the question............

jo-jos_jigs · « **Reply #59 on:** Feb 20, 2006, 06:34 PM »

Just got back from Sylvan a little while ago. Marked a few. None bit. Its a little hairy getting out there. The first 150 yards or so are ice drifts. Just be careful there were a few soft spots. After the drifts there was some black ice with allot of spider webbing. I sat out for a couple hours drilled about 6-8 holes. everyone was 6-8" Met a few guys guys and introduced them to the IS. The ice was moaning as I was leaving. Seems to be making ice pretty good.
