Sayers Lake Forecast for 2008

[PheasantTale]

It looks like it will be a good year for dink perch and small crappies.  Hopefully we will have enough ice in three weeks to check out my prediction.  I know TUAB and FT are raring to get on the ice.

Hey PT,
I was on the ice today-- the bridges were iced over here in Lamar so hopefully this darn rain will stop and winter will start soooooooooooon!

And this is no different than other years? 

[Icenutter]

Last week the cut was ice over , but it's all gone today . we didn't need this rain

Hey John how've you been?  Keep us updated so we can come up their and clean out all them 5 inch perch. 

[john t.]

As long as they are FT legal they're going in the freezer.  Actually you can get a lot of meat off of those dinks if you use the Rapala electric fillet knife.  Any chance we could get support for the 9" limit again...that was the best year we ever had with perch in Sayers

P.S.  After advice from FT, might have to change my code name to TipupsnBasilHayden

[fishtales]

I like the latter better than the former although apple barrel is a lot less expensive than Basil Hayden.

Both are excellent over ice though!

[TipupsnAppleBarrel]

I'll second that FT.  On another note, that small hole in Colyer should be freezing up now

[Wheres Walleye]

I agree on the Rapala knife. Even though there mostly dinks I'm glad the numbers have held steady. TUAB make sure you bring some of that tasty jerky with you when we finally hit the ice

[TipupsnAppleBarrel]

Jerky is almost gone so the ice at Sayers better harden up soon...or the musket better fire...weather not looking good for the weekend   Might be a Black Mo kinda year if things don't start getting colder around here.  Hey WW, since you're the expert on this, what's up with that new Hooters Billboard that just showed up around the State College area

[Wheres Walleye]

What better place to be if you can't be ice fishing and now that I think about it those, wings I had tonight were all about the size of those dink perch at Sayers 

[Icenutter]

Walley, where you from in Blair County? 

[Wheres Walleye]

Same area as you, I.N. Looks like all this rain is gonna melt any chances of fishing Hunters Cove this week.

[Icenutter]

Yeh the edges will probably open up.  Yesterday they were decent if you walked a little ways. 

[john t.]

does anybody know if this lake Will  be ready for the weekend  ?   i cant get up to look at it till fri.

[john t.]

So far this years outlook looks a little better than last . lots of blue gill's in the 8 to 9 inch range and the perch are a year class bigger than last , some small but not as many as last year. on word yet an the late draw down but it  is usually in mid to late FEB.
