LAKE GEORGE BS THREAD

[jwania]

thanks for the reply slipbob..how about Silver Bay? Is there a place to park and acces the lake if ice conditions are good? Also, I hear Bullwaga on Champlain is a great place also...thoughts?

I asked for it. I think I made it out more times last week than the entire previous year. But hey, I had fun!

                Warning guys the dock @ Huddle Beach rd. has a bubblier & looks sketchy getting on there.

[adksmitty]

How is hearth ? Is it safe. And is it ok to walk out aways to the north ? Should you recomend parking at the topp ? Anyone else going? My buddy backed out. Had to work. Just me and my fl18.

            It's good, you can walk to where you want around there, I don't think there is any snow on the road, do you have 4 wheel drive?

[mealworm]

man sounds like we're loosing all kinds of access now,first posted and no parking signs now with the bubblers

[bluemountainlaker]

it sucks! i guess dec needs to get a few more agling access areas on the lake. especially for us walkers. lol

[lockdown199]

Got on today been waiting for a year. Bite was slow and then the ice started cracking and moaning and bite just shut off. I was jigging for perch and set up a couple tip ups for pike with no luck. I'll be back up next week.

[adksmitty]

Thanks for the info on hearth , ice wanderer. I do have 4wd. But tires not the best. Any one here going there tomorrow ?

Finally got out to jig some lakers with a good buddy, headed out after 9 am and was home by 3 pm. The lakers were very cooperative, I iced 11 or 12 and lost several others; 2 biggest were 27-28", let them all go but one 23"er that was bleeding badly.

sweeeeet! 

[lakerdave]

Nice pics jj.

[JAGER61]

Great fish JJ!  Very impressive quality of those fish! Nice when they cooperate!

[combsey]

Nice fish and pics JJ.     Taking off under black ice makes for an awesome pic

[5watchman5]

The King was real good to me and a couple of friends today.  Great day to be out there.

[adksmitty]

Wow , that some good fish. I wish I could get out there. But don't have a buddy to go with. Will not go out for the first time this year without a buddy system. Just everyone giving good signs then people saying stay away. If I was to walk out from the hearth would I be safe. I like to go up out of vets , and walk the 1/2 hr  walk , but people say not safe. So see what I mean. Anyone can send me private message its fine. Will checking message till 11pm. If anyone wants to meet up .

[step2jimi]

great fish jj. looks like an awesome day.

[tipuppppppppp]

Hey i have fished at huletts a few times and caught perch good but was wondering about lakers is it a good place to set tipups with shiners or is jigging a better option.  And also what does everybody jig with for them.  I have only got one quite a few yrs ago and it was only like twenty inches.  any help would be awesome.

[ICE WANDERER]

         Lakers are all over the lake, but are generally caught in deeper water than perch are in. When I'm fishing perch I sometimes will catch a laker but I don't plan on it. I will jig for lakers in 80' of water.

[Iamthenextone34]

Headed out on Harris bay this morning hoping to get into some perch will let you guys know later on this afternoon how we make out 

[mike304]

Does anyone know if the conditions are safe going out in Hague at Memorial Park? Looking to head up there this weekend.

Last time I was up there it was open.

[riverat24]

What are you Jigging with to nail the lakers? I am going to fish in Hague this weekend. I can hit 80' there easily. I haven't had much success with lakers and thats all I want to catch.

[Blackjack]

Nice lakers!!!!

[aj454]

Well with all the snow predicted im glad i got to fish LG a few times this year. Don't know whats gonna happen but i have every monday off for the rest of the month. Hope we don't lose to much.

[daytondedrick]

How is the ice in NW Bay? There doesnt seem to be any more open water. Anyone been up there yet? Thin spots?

[EasternCentralNY21]

I want to get over deeper water and fish for lakers but I have no clue where to go, Im looking for a place where parking is nice and I have small car that sucks in snow so it cant be a steep hill to get in and out. I know route 9L pretty well i was thinking about fort ann beach or any of the bays on 9L but still not sure where to park i would have to wing it haha im willing to go pretty far up into bolton too idk someone head me in the right direction please
