How is the ice on Sebago... around the park
I was out on the station not too long ago, only 4.5"-6" of ice where I was surprised there is 12" now?
I fished at the Station yesterday. I found 12" +/- of ice all the way out to the Portland Water District Boundary. I only brought the flasher and the jig pole, after a dozen or so holes and a mile of walking I eventually found where the togue were hanging out. They were about 20' off bottom around a school of smelt. I dropped a bunch of different lures to them and only had one hit on a MASSIVE laker taker swedish pimple with a custom paint job. I lost the fish when I was trying to back the drag off while reeling him in. I only got looks and no hits on swedish pimples in cooper & silver, white tubes jigs, and air plane jigs all tipped with dead shiner. What the hell do these togue want? Do you need to put some stank on your lure?On a side note, there was a guy fishing way inside the Portland Water District Boundary. Are you allowed to go in there for ice fishing or is it still off limits? I'm pretty sure it is a hefty fine if they catch you in there....
If they will chase but won't bite downsize your lure. If they are stuck to bottom and won't chase good luck.
