NEPA Reports Wanted
« on: Jan 17, 2021, 12:19 AM »
Can I make a suggestion? If you are looking for a report for a certain lake, why don't you make the the request in the counties I have posted. It bugs me when I to go to a posting about lake conditions and find a request "for conditions on the lake". I will check "Luzerne County Reports Wanted" thread and go to that lake in a day or so and check out the conditions at the lake. You can compensate me for my gas! LOL

Hey Dinkmaster,

I guess I'm missing something in your post and sorry if this is a dumb question but how do I do that?

Thanks

I just wanted to start a county thread where people could ASK for a report for a lake in a certain county. When I see a posting for a certain lake I expect to see that there is safe ice of there is not safe ice. We all want reports for lakes so why should people even have to ask? ::)
Maybe I should have put this NEPA Reports Wanted thread on the reports page but I did't want to confuse people. If this bugs you, don't ask, thats OK.  ???

Hey Dinkmaster,

I saw you other post, I get it. We normally fish Mauch Chunk in Carbon, although if we want to fish this year we may have to further North. I was thinking about Promise Land also.

Thanks

All i am asking guys to post reports for the lakes they are fishing? Don't say what you are catching, so no one will slaughter your honey-hole. Look at all the reports from across the state. Please put the reports on the Reports Page.
If I had enough money for gas, I would go to these places and vacation away from my wife.  ;D

Agreed.  I have been doing this and it would be nice if others did as well so we all had current info to make informed decisions with our fishing time.  There are tons of opportunities for all in PA.  I was wondering if people were not posting due to mainly "white ice" from all the precipitation we had.  No idea, but I will post when I am fishing PA.  Headed to Lake George this weekend, so no posts from me.  :tipup:

I plan to "Fly my Ice Shanty Flag" on my ice spud for the rest of this year. I have 10 Ice Shanty sled stickers to give away if you see me out. But then you'll have to post the conditions; Get it.  ;D

I've been putting names in a hat and giving out stickers to each loyal member who posts conditions. I only have four left. I guess you guys don't like stickers! ;D

Wallenpaupack has guys out at Wilsonville and Mangan. Fished a pond off of 590 yesterday and it still had 8” of white and 7” of black. Fish seamed to be moving to the shallows. Caught the majority of the fish in 6’ of water off a rocky point with a weed line.

What was the pull like? Did you get out to the cut area? The channel makes a swing from the launch side to the back side before it goes thru the cut. My son caught a tiger-musky there a few years ago.

I heard there was safe ice up in Wayne County, so we went up to Upper Woods on Saturday. Ice was good but fishing was not! 😩

A buddy went to Promised Land and reported the same.

Hey, I’m just hoping to get back on the ice one more time- don’t care if the fishing is slow- but after this rain it might be done! 🙄

If you want warm water reports go to myfishfinder.com. It would be nice to share some info on what's biting before the bass tournaments start. It would also be nice to know when the crappie are spawning. You don't have to give out your secret spot; just help some of the novices out.
You can use your username and password to log in. Go to PA, then to Lakes, and post conditions.
