Just thinking about ice fishing the king got me hyped up to catch more of these.

Correct me if I am wrong but is that a land locked Salmond?

adkRoy · « **Reply #2 on:** Nov 30, 2005, 07:22 PM »

22" inch salmon. I caught him on a tipup 1ft below the ice on a medium icicle on the last day of icefishing last year on the king. He put up a heck of a fight.

WHat is the King?

Morrocco_Mole · « **Reply #4 on:** Nov 30, 2005, 07:38 PM »

I was not sure if it was the "King" or a "Lure"... I have never fished on the King how is it over all? Also what can the average ice angler except to catch or see pulled onto the ice by someone?

Slipbob

Do they use specific baits to catch Lake trout or Salmon? Do a lot of folks fish for Perch there? The last one what's the average size perch one might be able to ice?

Well, Slipbob

Your right about the questions and thanks for answering all of them.... Also you are very correct about me fishing Brant last year if was a lot of fun... If I can remember I think you have a Nils Master Auger? I cannot weight to fish the King this year.... If I start walking from Lancaster, Pa now I might make it there in time for 1st ice? Hey thanks again for all of the good advise and taking the time out to help old Mole!....

Nice fish adkRoy, I got lucky and caught 4 last year, all just underneath the ice. 2 short ones (15 and 17 inches) went back and a 24" and 21" got set on the dinner table. Can't wait until this year.

Morrocco_Mole · « **Reply #8 on:** Dec 01, 2005, 01:27 PM »

I would love to catch one of these bad boys.... Will the Salmon hit smelt? Or do they like plain old minows?

Morrocco_Mole · « **Reply #9 on:** Dec 01, 2005, 01:58 PM »

Great.... That's nice to know.... I will try something else...

adkRoy · « **Reply #10 on:** Dec 02, 2005, 07:40 AM »

Morroco mole Set you tip-up just below the ice with a medium icicle or shiner. Don't use smelt it is illegal. On lake George last year the Encon officers were out in force last year and you don't want to take a chance.

My brother was lucky enough to catch an 18 inch salmon also. He is having his mounted. His foul hooked in the gills so he kept his. I caught and released my salmon.

You had me all excited when I saw the LG conditions tread was being used though someone might be telling us what the current water temp was and such.

No, I think it is going to be a while for LG to freeze. I'm just getting ready for it, going through last years photographs from there.

one thing I know...if there is 4'' of ice and no open water in sight...I'm OUT there, and not for perch.

Does anyone know why this was moved over here from the reports section?

Mentiply · « **Reply #20 on:** Dec 05, 2005, 09:57 AM »

Probably because most of the info did not relate to current reports / conditions of Lake George

We took a charter and only caught a 6" smally but we still had a great time.($200.00 non keeper lol) Keep us posted when the ice forms love to come up this season.
