MyFishFinder.com Just like iceshanty but warmer
havent been....stupid work was going to investigate the upper river, but the flow jumped back up fast.....behind the hotels is always slack water...... i would use a small fly or jig tipped with a waxworm the time for trolling is almost here billybono
I'll be heading out to a remote pond that is seldomly fished for some hog pike!!
It is but I think dmatuska isn't from NY which is confusing to people because this is the NY board. Yes the opener in NY is May 6th not May 13th.
Yeah slip, dmatuska is from MN thats why I put NY. I hope everyone is straight now!
Oops, sorry guys. I was just so excited that I'm going fishing this weekend I forgot to look at which board I was on.
Doesn't mean you can't go fish a lake with trout & pike in it and accidently catch some pike.. I wouldn't go keeping them or youll be gettin a love letter from the ECO.
But can you fish for Walleye in a lake when Walleye season is still open yet Trout is closed. and both species are present.
well if your sitting over 150 foot of water, jigging with a medium rod, using a vex, on a lake where trout is closed,but lakers are present, i think you can expext a ticket billybono
Lakers are Trout
thanks professor read it again i guess billybono
Isn't the mere fact that no one is certain what will hit the end of their line the reason they call it FISHING !!
So you are saying that because I fish for lake trout in 5 feet of water and catch them there and the fact that just because pike season ended and I always use 20# test that I am going to get in trouble.. Hang on let me call my uncle hes a recently retired ECO..Hello uncle Bob yeah someone told me that if I go fishing for lake trout up north along that shore line where we always get into the lakers in 5 feet of water throughout the whole winter and I accidently catch a couple of pike like we usually do every other time we go there that I am going to get a ticket.. Well you can tell who ever told you that the they can go pound salt as long as you return the fish unharmed to the water there is nothing anybody can do because the lake is open to ice fishing and there are trout present.. Now on the other hand if you went to lake and the only other species were Perch which would be in season and Walleye which aren't like Delta Lake and you are using 5 inch suckers you got some explaining to actually you better just hold your hand out cause your gonna get a ticket.. Yeah I kinda thought so but just wanted to make sure thanks..Well there you have it
well it seems as though everyone is a little up tight about this years crappy season. i say you should all relax and go striper fishing on the Hudson, nothing like hooking into those hogs and they taste good on the BBQ, too.cant we all just get along. fish- on!!!!
I know!! They stole my thread too . We'll be at Gillman lake north of Wells!!Robb
Sorry Robb for stealing your thread. I was just trying to alert people that pike fishing is closed, and targeting them is against the law right now. Mostly alerting:1. People who might not know the law. (bad - everyone should have a decent knowledge of the laws concerning the species they target)2. People who might not care about the law. (worse - disregard for the law, AND disregard for sporting ethics and the species in question)
