Gills in the creek.....

I'm gonna give it a whirl later today ! 

[mcully]

Drove the south side of the lake yesterday to Sylvan. Was surprised not to see nobody out on the east end.  The ice is pushed tight to the shore and up and over in some spots as the photos show. Smart nobody out  but still surprised. Canal is high and muddy. South shore launch is clear of ice out a few hundred yards to where guys were fishing last weekend. Oneida shore launch still had ice in it but getting close to where you can get a boat in. Can't go far but it's clearing. Big thick sheet still on the lake. Went home and cleaned to boat charged all the batteries again and started putting down mulch so that's off the list.

they haven't started MFF yet.   Sully...

Diehards thread is up and running on MFF

Gills in the creek.....

cant fish in the creeks can we?

[spoon-n-eye]

cant fish in the creeks can we?

I am pretty sure 1/80th oz jig with a maggot is not going to attract econ.

creeks are off limits , until first sat in may except the canal to the bridge , page 42 of your bible

well guys back from vegas and caught up on all the posts! it was a great year of ice fishing! i enjoyed all your posts, pics  and also the videos! had some really tuff days out there but most of all i enjoyed being able to get out and enjoy the friends i was with! time to get the salmon slayer out(BOAT) and get to the browns and kings! me and kowboy usually go, so got a spot open for anyone wanting to get out with us! but we fish all day and dont go home at noon! LoL (franky) pm me if u like! thx again for everything from weather conditions to ice conditions and everything in the middle! see you all next ice fishing season!

I have kind of a stupid question.....

I was along the south shore today and still quite a bit of ice out there in the middle but not much along the edges.  Just wondering at what point they call it an "ice out".

I would assume it is when the lake is completely void of any ice sheets....could be wrong

I could get another week in if I put the waders on but with the sunshine , trout fishing is on my mind  and getting the yard work done  , and getting the boat ready , so many different kinds of fish to catch and so little time

Nice photos Freddie. it was good fishing with you again this year. glad I was with you when you got that monster Eye early season. good times

[reeleyz]

Great ending to a great season Fred!

[filetandrelease]

yes it was nice fishing with many of you on here and some that aren't members , great pics Bruce and HT , choo choo , and snag ,just to name a few ,and a great trip to LG with the PA connection,  and many great reports and many different subjects this season , HT bone up on the pans the old man is coming to flat fish city next winter 

[choo choo]

Nice pictures filet. That was a looooong ice season for you.Great job on all the eyes , perch and flats! Sounded like you had a ball with those flatfish late season. The only thing missing was a white perch slaughterfest. I never got to see you  and most of the crew this season, but hopefully next ice season we will cross paths and get to BS out on the ice.I will make it a point to hunt you down out there
See you soon out there  in our boats filet!

Lot's of great scenery, fish, and kids ice fishing pictures this year by so many O L fisherman. The day's we were'nt out on the ice, we could always count on some great stories , pictures, and badgering here on the OL Diehards thread, to perk up the day. I'm looking forward to next year already.Fishing through the ice is a great way to put highest quality fish filets in our freezers, and beat the winter doldrums  here in NY state. Ice fishing is sometimes frustrating, but can be very therapeutic and loads of fun!!

See you all next year,... no wait ,... later This year,.... December I hope!      On to MFF !

[H.T.]

Nah!  There would not be any of those fish in there! 
My last day on the ice was yesterday.  Used a plank to get on and had to get wet to get off!  Water rose over 2' in 4 hours!  I'm done with ice for this season.  April 10th - the latest I've ever been on ice! 
Got a volunteer day this Monday at the Constantia Hatchery - they are expecting to have fish to work with.

[Oldtimer]

Thanks to all of you who posted here .. Enjoyed following your escapades ...  Time to move IS from favorite bar and replace with MFF..   Have a great summer...
