Can I assume crown point is not fishable?

All open water at Port Henry.  So your assumption especially with the wind direction today is a reasonable one.

I heard from my parents in Alburg that the ice was good near the pump house down Lake street . Lots of fisherman fishing Thursday from the cove to windmill point. Thursday night high winds and it broke up and now open water in front of their house . Odd year for making ice . 🥶

Anyone been out from Sandy Point?  Heading up in 2 weeks and was wondering how the ice has held up north of the bridge.


A bad day of fishing is better than a good day at work!!

Fished Hog Island in Swanton over the weekend (2/17-2/18)... open water at the bridge but further down there was 5-8 inches of good ice. Fairly productive, got into some pike and perch, nothing huge.

Tight lines!

Took a ride to St. Albans yesterday. Saw 6 trucks at the boat launch, most were fishing close. Wind was whipping pretty good. 3 vehicles at Kill Kare, saw 2 people way out. Ice was pretty thin there not to long ago. I didn’t fish. The ramp side looked iffy. I’d like to hear or read a good ice report before venturing out.

Fished Tabor Point yesterday morning for a couple of hours with my son.  Not a banner day but we caught a few keepers on 8" of ice.  Nice day to end the season made even nicer by the guys who gave us half a bucket of yellow perch on our way out.  Not sure who they are but we're very thankful that they shared!
