Was wondering what is the best crappie lake in ny? Is it common knowldge or up for debate? I've fished most lakes in Western New York with ok success for the calicos.
-
Whats your favorite crappie lake in ny?
-
Silver, but thats my favorite for just about everything. I fished lime lake last year at the tail end of the season cause its not far from home (not cause of the scenery ;D) and I talked to a guy walking on at dusk and said he hammers big crapps at night. Anyone concur?

Most ice fishermen are tight lipped
-
Good luck getting this info out of anyone on here ;D ;D ;D. Might as well ask guys for their first born daughter!!!
-
and i thought everyone was helpful on here, thats all i have hearing is how everyone helps others out , heck i would let someone know where to go but not everyone is like me i guess, to each there own, i just like to see people catch fish and have fun
-
most CRAPPIE fishermen are tight lipped....the most quiet group in the whole community....
-
Biggest crappie I have ever caught came out of eagle lake in Essex county.

There is a big difference between sharing a good spot with some "ONE", and posting your favorite spot so THOUSANDS can see it...... Not sure where you live but the two best crappie lakes in NY are Black Lake and Chautauqua Lake...
-
Champlain if you know where to go

Many of my crappiest days have been on Silver........

-
Does it have to be a lake? ;D
-
Hhhhhaaaa u guys r killer. I believe my profile says rookie but it ain't my first rodeo. I don't hand out my "spots" that easily either but I thought the mention of a few lakes as a whole was ok. ???

You guys talk of silver lake but there are multiple silver lakes. The one I live on you can only hammer the crappy in summer, winter is a tough time for crappie here. I have heard that lake Champlain has some good crappie fishing on hard water though. I also have a house right down the road from eagle lake and I have a feeling that it will freeze before paradox lake. Looks like im fishin there first.
You guys also like to keep your fishin spot a secret but why? I fished some good spots on champlain and other lakes in vermont as well as here in new york but it takes the right bait equipment and time to haul in a big catch. Just because you gave up a good spot on here doesn't mean everyone is going to go there and fish it. Then if there are people who will try to fish it they probably wont catch much. On one specific lake in Vermont, fairfield pond, I was using some meal worms and pip squeks and I caught nothing. I also had to walk through a foot of snow and even 2 feet in some spots. The next time I was out I used some minnows and I killed the perch, I caught a fish every time i dropped to the bottom. I caught maybe 10 perch and some were as long or longer than 13 inches but I just kept enough for a meal for myself. The next time I went out on the ice which was a few weeks later I caught maybe 3 fish over 3 or 4 hours. So really it takes more than just one trip from some outsider to catch a bunch of fish, even if they come back a few times they probably wont be able to perfect the technique each lake keeps secret. For you people that are afraid to give up a good fishing spot, its a gamble but you have the home field advantage. If any of you take the time to read this whole post I appreciate that and these are the reasons that I dont have a big problem sharing some good fishing spots. Some spots are big enough that everyone could enjoy a good time fishing. I would rather people catching fish or even trying to catch fish in some of my favorite fishing spots because the challenge of finding the fish and getting the right technique is the best part of fishing.

might wanna check on that...might have been people fishing both lakes this weekend ;)
-
Lake nunya its right down the street from lake X...fish it at night while the sun is out...and you'll find them right on the bottom where infinity is...good luck to ya
-
In Orange County greenwood lake has the largest if you can find them. I have caught several in the 13-15" range.
-
It was at one time WHITNEY POINT than the state thought it wood be a great idea to put an 18 in limit on walleye. From than it has gone down hill. Many of us who remember the good days no longer fish it.They should ask the people from Minnesota what happens to the Crappie population when the Walleye population goes up.

know whats really interesting...EVERY SINGLE PERSON on here that has no problem talking up any lake or pond and can't understand why people would show retraint in naming their fishing spots - EVERY SINGLE ONE is new to the site and has been here around a year or less. They just haven't learned the hard way. Just ask SSmokinSS from myfishfinder about how talking up his own favorite lake worked out for him.
-
PRIME EXAMPLE. And look how much he posts now.
-
i second john23 there are huge crappie all over orange county lakes!

Outstanding... I bet Mendy's serves up a wicked Crappie Platter.
(but as for Crappie fishing locations, I don't have any input... But I can help a little with tactics!) ::)

-
Honeoye is great in April. Wish I could find em during ice season.
-
Lake Erie.......nuf said.
-
Cazenovia Lake used to be a hotbed for beautiful Calicos...but, loos lips sink crappie populations. Then to top it off...the Residents killed all the weeds in the lake over the past 3 years. :blink:
AW
-
Most ice fishermen are tight lipped
haha true that never give up your favorite spot! :P
-
In my experience, Black lake.

Chief, your joking, right????
-
black lake in the late 70s early 80s. the good old days. where you been hiding andy?
-
Everybody knows that Lake X has the best crappie fishing. But X Pond in Maine is better. ;D
-
the best lakes are not lakes they are reservoirs. espically the ones in Westerchester county. they all hold some big crappie including a 17in 3lb 5 oz that was caught last month and won a local fishing contest. i think it came out of diverting reservoir or croton reservoir. When i used to live down there they were always cathching big slabs in any of the NYC watershed reservoirs. Glenida or gillead were also good, but it took forever for them to freeze.

Chief, your joking, right????
we tried to tell you that he aint wrapped to tight ::) ::) ::) ::) :P

I have done very well on Honeoye lake for crappie. I used 1/64oz bucktail jig with a chartreuse head tipped with a full niagra minnow. I fished from 8-15ft of water. I was north of trident marine. Also caught 4 walleye that day all jigging. Hope that helps, good luck!

You ice fish the Oneida River, or we just talking general spots? I'm thinking there's not too many years and too many places on that river that ever get safe ice.
-
Good luck getting this info out of anyone on here ;D ;D ;D. Might as well ask guys for their first born daughter!!!
Yeah, id'e give up my first born daughter for your crappiest crappy lake ;D
-
Dude, I can't believe you just burnt my spot up like that! ;D
well i figure why not share the wealth theres enough in that lake for all the members of iceshanty.com to come and enjoy the echo lake crappies ;D.besides isn't that what this site is about sharing info on fishing spots @)
-
That's where the state record LMB was caught!
Allegedly caught that is, from what I heard from a DEC biologist. ;)
-
So did everybody get the answers they were looking for? Everybody all locked in on everybody elses spots now? Nicely done boys not a single location coughed up give yourselves a round of applause ;D

I thought this was a debate on which is the best lake... ??? Thats what it says..
-
Does a thread ever go as planned? ;D
-
Seems like the best lake would also be the crappiest... Weird how that works, huh?

Have another beer !!!!
-
ONONDAGA !! west of syracuse. its awesome, full a crappie.
-
this idea isn't for ice fishing but for crappie open water fishing the new Alabama rig that came out for bass fishing i wonder if u could use that to catch some big crappies in the spring?! any ideas
-
well,guys this is my first reply I have written on Ice Shanty.I live in western ny some lakes of the lakes I have fished here r Cuba, Chautauqua,Lime,and Findley lake they all have decent fish in them but I have to say your odds for bigger crappie and quantity would be Chautauqua lake but every lake varies in technique. {Clue } to all is fish slooooooooow.
-
actually i think rock bass is a better fish , the meat is firmer the fillets thicker , there more abundant ,easier to catch most times and no limit ....... oh and they fight better and take flies really well ........
-
beleive it or not i caught a crappie last year in front of a dec officer checking fish count that was almost the size of a 5 gal bucket laying on its side in lake george . he figured it was a state record. but they are few and far between. south bay on lake champlain is an awesome spot to catch crappies summer and winter. very nice size to them also

Was wondering what is the best crappie lake in ny? Is it common knowldge or up for debate? I've fished most lakes in Western New York with ok success for the calicos.
Well, a good spot is Carter`s pond in Washington County. Its not a lake, but I`ve caught some nice crappie out of there in the winter and summer. :)
-
My area in Oswego Co. is dotted with these 30=120 acre lakes......I look for gravel, and fish the drops at dusk. I notice that when I tie a dry fly 2'' stinger to a small jig, I wallop them. You might want to try that big pond just in sight of the road ( now that theres no leaves ) on the way home from work.......it might keep you busy for weeks.
-
I find that the HUDSON river is the best i have ever fished for the numbers and size
;D ;D ;D ;D
RAT
-
I second carter pond...
-
Carter's pond and a lot of big crappies ? Really. Just got done cleaning 43 from Champlain Never seen that good of a day on Carter's.
-
most CRAPPIE fishermen are tight lipped....the most quiet group in the whole community....
thats because they keep there grubs in there mouth ???
-
There is no more crappie in ny! :whistle:
-
i like to fish my neighbors pond pull a dozen over 12" every time...makes a fantastic dinner
-
There is no more crappie in ny! :whistle:
No there isn't. ::) Cheeks out!!! @)
-
Nothing wrong with sharing some info with friends, but be careful with the entire internet. Four or five years ago on Lake Erie found the spot. Told 1 guy, and told him don`t tell anybody. Next day 40 - 50 people within feet of where we were. The catch definetely fell off!
-
The best crappie fishing in NY is at the local water treatment facilities .... Big clunkers can be caught around 6-7 am at the one near my house. Especially after wing night...

This past summer while fishing an FLW tournament on Champlain, I caught my all time biggest crappie a few miles north of South Bay . It was a white crappie and I caught it on a Rapala DT 10 crankbait. You could have closed its mouth and not known it was in there. It was huge. Since I was bass fishing I let it go without weighing or measuring, but for a moment I stood there in the nice cool breeze under the July sun and pictured myself all alone on a frozen lake, sitting on a bucket... :icefish:

SECRET SPOT!! thats the best spot

Secret spots!!! lol had fun with this a few years ago :tipup:

There are no secret spots anymore ;)

It amazes me, that so many people on this site took the time to write a negative opinion of the initial question , Why even click on the question? Unless you are actually looking for spots? Apparently not as accomplished a fisherman as they would like the fishing population at large to believe. I can respect the fisherman that puts the time on the watery/ice to find his/her hot spotsand keep them to themselves, but those same fisherman would have absolutely no need/use for this forum. Apparently,the fisherman with the negative comments, need the attention of others(see the number of post of these people) even though they have nothing of value to offer, other than mocking the author of the post or a helpful respondent.
Be nice if a person that wasn't interested in a post, just pass it by. Not a big time ice fisherman, but in my section of the state, Chautauqua,Honeoye,Sandy Ponds would appear to have decent populations of crappie caught ice fishing. I can understand the secrecy of bass spots with the number of money tournaments in the state, but PANFISH?? How did Iverson say it? PRACTICE???????

well JMNY004, obviously you have never seen what people do once word gets out about a good crappie bite...
so where can I get some crappies?
;D :tipup:
-
Crappie are probably of the most sought after pan fish for eating, i don't blame guys for protecting their honey holes. Never hear of people just C&R Crappies. SO if word gets out about a place with decent population & size, it WILL get crowded very quickly. And don't think people won't drive a long distance for them ... look what happened at Cando' with Perch !!
My 2-cents
-
That's a million dollar question...this fisherman is poor! But I have caught some great fish on Conesus. Especially late season crappie, maybe that I'm partial cause its close to home. Good luck out there. Hopefully we get some colder weather!
-
My guess would be that the best crappie lake is one that hasn't been posted on this thread.
-
I see this thread has caused some mixed feelings which is kinda the point, everyone loves a little debate ;D. Also by no means am I an inexperienced fishermen so I can take and expect a few shots, so lets keep this train rolling
-

I don't even target Crappies, probably only caught a 1/2 doz ever through the ice :P... so i have no say either way as to where to find them & best tatics to catch them. But IF i find a great spot during my travels ... i won't be announcing on the web. :P But will gladly help out with depth, lures,colors etc ...
Again just MHO
Good luck all
-
Caught 5 crappies weighing 2.2 lbs in my secret spot and they all went back in the lake. All I can say is it was in Ulster county
Catcha lot of 9-11 inchers that make the frying pan
-
Great idea. It doesn't take long to hurt the population.
-
Stealing from another user who posted something like this a few days ago on another thread. I forget who.
"The best spots on IS are the one's with the psychadelic trees in the background. Look for the psychadelic trees in NY and you'll find the best fishing in the state!" I got a kick out of it.

I love fishing there!

Shocked I haven't ran into you down there. @)
-
I have found almost any body of water can be great for crappie as long as you know where to find them. Although I stumbled onto a private body of water that hold the largest I have ever seen or caught I kept ten fish to eat never weighed them but the biggest of them would of been close to the record had I known what it was I would've called had it on a scale before I breaded it up. As soon as it freezes ill see if I can get a few for pics.
-
Yeah man. Psychadelic Trees Lake. Groovey! Seriously, it's good to have a thread that is not so serious otherwise I'm going crazy waiting for safe ice around here.
-
Personally i think any lake with crappie in it is the "BEST".......... ;D
-
I've done great on lake bonaparte
-
lake sunnyside! a little private mudpuddle ive got acces to!
-
i was wondering were is a good lake to catch some nice crappie fished on a couple lakes but no crappie thanks for any help
-
The answer to your question of what is the best crappie lake in NY is, probably the one that no one knows has Crappie!!! ;D. Bigger question is, what part of the state are you in?

You'd have an easier time extracting your own tooth with a rusty pair of pliers and no anethestic than to get a hint at what's a good crappie lake in NY from these guys.

i have only found crappie in 3 bodies of water ive been on.2 of which were smallish lakes.more like big ponds. people find out and will flock but that doesnt mean im not willing to share. fish replenish. the other spot ive got alot of crappie out of was the the canal. you can find some nice slobs but they rarely school. ull find them cruising behind a bass or walleye. this is just what ive seen on camera. largemouth comes through....10 seconds later 2 er 3 crappie following

Was wondering what is the best crappie lake in ny? Is it common knowldge or up for debate? I've fished most lakes in Western New York with ok success for the calicos.
Well, its not a lake. Carter`s pond in Washington county produces nice black crappie in the winter and summer. :)

im not giving my spot up just saying only a couple close friends know of my spot and let me just say if they blew up my spot i would booby trap the ice lol

Caught 5 crappies weighing 2.2 lbs in my secret spot and they all went back in the lake. All I can say is it was in Ulster county
Catcha lot of 9-11 inchers that make the frying pan
Sturgeon Pool?

There are no crappie in ny.dont even look for them they dont exist just forget about it move on. I hear there is excellent carp and catfishing though concentrate on that.
