northernmaddness · « **Reply #4 on:** Mar 08, 2011, 06:50 PM »

i doubt there will be a category for either, havent heard of any lake trout caught in a long time and walleyes are few and far between in east caroga but there are giants in there, there was a 10lber taken out of there this year, probably just be perch, crappie pickerel browns and splake

They just label it trout division, perch n pickeral usually.

it got rained out lastweek--518-835-2201

northernmaddness · « **Reply #10 on:** Mar 08, 2011, 07:50 PM »

ive never caught a splake. What are they aome form of a trout? Do they have any size to them?

paul23 · « **Reply #11 on:** Mar 08, 2011, 08:09 PM »

Cross of brook and lake trout, used to be they averaged 14-15 inch. Might catch a bit bigger one now that its not stocked efficiently.

northernmaddness · « **Reply #12 on:** Mar 08, 2011, 08:19 PM »

thanks. So is this tourny on both east and west caroga or just west? Sorry about all the questions but i normaly just fish the canal and with all the streams running into where i fish the level is up quite a bit and im not to into laying planks to get onto the ice. But i really would like to try this tourny out.

beerbellybob106 · « **Reply #13 on:** Mar 08, 2011, 09:46 PM »

tourney is for both lakes and splake run bigger than 14-15" some of the nicer ones average 18-22" your more likely to catch a brown though because they are be stocked in there now

beerbellybob106 · « **Reply #16 on:** Mar 09, 2011, 09:19 AM »

northernmaddness · « **Reply #17 on:** Mar 09, 2011, 12:00 PM »

Joe Snag · « **Reply #18 on:** Mar 10, 2011, 06:23 PM »

6" of snow today and rain for tomorrow---i'll try to let everyone know by Saturday-

pvbob · « **Reply #19 on:** Mar 11, 2011, 06:46 PM »

Any help here would be great. I'm 3 hours out and just heard of the tourney. How much ice after this weather and where do you sign in / register? We're melting out fast down here in Putnam.

o2rmk800 · « **Reply #20 on:** Mar 11, 2011, 07:11 PM »

register @ vrooman's hotel all weekend and starting @ 6am sunday morning. contest runs from 7-3. talked to lady up there today and it's still on, little sloppy but its suppose to get cold tomorrow afternoon and over night.

Hardwaternubie53 · « **Reply #21 on:** Mar 11, 2011, 08:07 PM »

What / where is Vrooman's?

Joe Snag · « **Reply #22 on:** Mar 12, 2011, 06:03 AM »

Caroga Lake---Fulton County--

pvbob · « **Reply #23 on:** Mar 12, 2011, 09:07 AM »

Thanks for the info. Gotta see if I can get some company to take the ride but either way I'll be out there.

Cook078 · « **Reply #24 on:** Mar 12, 2011, 09:36 AM »

Any idea on the cost to enter?? And is there an age limit for kids or do they have to pay also? Thanks!

Joe Snag · « **Reply #25 on:** Mar 12, 2011, 10:44 AM »

i think it's 10 bucks for everyone--no kids division but 100% payback--

o2rmk800 · « **Reply #26 on:** Mar 12, 2011, 01:17 PM »

yes 100% payout. $10 to enter. 1st 2nd 3rd perch, splake, rainbow trout, brown trout, pickerel, crappie and walleye. was just there and entered me and my son. walked ouit and there are spots of slush and slop. shoreline was good, guys riding sleds all over. was a group of fishermen out on west. see everyone out tomorrow.
