ONEIDA LAKE DIEHARDS THREAD 2013/2014

[Hookinup]

The high barometer should drop slowly tomorrow throughout the day, but there's a HUGE drop in barometric pressure coming on Saturday morning. The info that I look at has it at 30.08 at midnight and dropping to 29.35 by 3 P.M. Saturday afternoon. That will also generate some wind...but a little lighter than originally forecasted. That should put them in the mood...

Nice pics Shane . 15 eyes on a bad day . Haha

except first 2 hours I wasn't on structure, in the mud lookin for perch, eyes were a bicatch, when that barometer goes, guys are gonna slam them, I marked hundreds of non biters, well I didn't finess tiny stuff, or run minnows.... just jigged my raps......

Awesome shots snagger!!! Gonna hit em hard Saturday hope the bite pics back up. Gonna try and get some pics with the GOPRO as well. Hope they turn out this time...

[burningdownthehouse]

Plenty of parking in the park lot...I would still recommend getting there early. As for pressure cracks, the only one I know of is if you head east on the lake. Anybody else is welcome to chime in if they've noticed anything else.

Nice fish and nice pics!

Going to hit the north shore today. Fished Lewis Point area yesterday away from the city. Pretty quiet except for one good run - I lost two good fish while my buddy landed an 18" and 20". My buddy landed one more and all I had to show for my efforts was a huge mud puppy. Nice being out for the first time in quite a while; would have been a lot nicer with some good yellows or a few waldos.

I like that picture Chief - one problem -  I see a lot of Labatts. You been holding out on me buddy?

[ChiefCatchemall]

I'm pretty new to ice fishing and fishing Oneida certainly can be a humbling experience.  I've fished Sandy Pond several times this year and have had some moderate success - enough to at least think I can catch a few fish.  Fished Oneida yesterday out of the park east of Constantia.  Fished entire afternoon using some of the same jigs-lures that worked on Sandy and never had a hit.  Makes me question whether I need a completely different thought process.  I have 2 general questions: I walked out yesterday and don't mind the exercise but if I want to be more mobile and change spots completely a wheeler would be helpful.  I have 1 but no chains.  With warm weather Sat would I be able to get around without chains or staying on foot will be better? Secondly, is this park (name?) a good place to start my Oneida learning curve?  You guys are usually great with advice and helpful info - I will take any suggestions - thanks.  Love this website and the challenge of Oneida

[iceman13166]

I'll be headed out Saturday Morning.  Looking to get into some perch and a waldo would just be a bonus.  Just bought the Micro Aqua Vu and looking forward to breaking it in.  Along with that I have a Humminbird Ice 45 so if they are there I should be able to see them, lol.

Haven't ice fished Oneida since I was about 10. Thinking of making a run Sunday, 5 hours of driving for 5 hours of fishing. I know sounds kinda nuts but have to be home by 4 for Spaghetti dinner fundraiser. Been reading up on access points. How is the ice out of Godfrey's? Probably end up somewhere on the east end. I'll be there solo, walking out. Thanks for any info. Never caught an eye through the ice.

CEJ, thanks for all those numbers, put some of them into my phone for reference.  I sure hope ECO Head does't use the nickname Dick.

He checked me last year - forgot to renew my license so he wrote me up.  But he was actually very friendly the entire time and we chatted for a bit after I pulled my gear back to Williams Beach. 

(ticket got dismissed in court as I renewed my license on my way home that day)

Heck yeah! Just got this app. Really impressed

[315stickbow]

On a side note. Had to cancel my Oneida trip today. Damn car is blowing smoke out of the vents. Blower motor shorted and melted. It's been a fun morning to say the least

[1beaver]
