Thanks everyone, I know that they weren't the biggest fish but any fish is always fun to catch. I'll be out again tomorrow till noon and I hope I have some more fish to post about. Good luck out there and be safe.
You going Saturday Jeff?
I posted this on the conditions board, but figured more people might see it here.OK Here we go.Lake George South Basin from MDB North to Canoe island, Including Dunham's,Harris,katskill, and Warner bays is locked up. East side of of Long Island approx 2/3 of the way up the island is frozen over to about Elisabeth island.From Canoe island north to about Basin bay is open or sketchy.Basin Bay is locked up and had 6 guys fishing on it as of about 1pm today.Huddle and Bolton Bays out to Dome island are frozen, but not being fished. Sawmill Bay north to about Bell Point is frozen out to the point of Tongue, then South to Dome. Large open area north and east of Dome and directly east of Dome towards Phelps Island is either open or Sketchy. Pilot Knob is frozen but looks sketchy way out.Northwest Bay is open in the middle, frozen on either end.Narrows appear to be locked up but don't know for sure. Narrows North to silver bay(Hulletts Landing) is frozen. Rest of Lake from silver bay to Rogers Rock campground is WIDE open.I do not know any ice depth. Just reporting what I saw.
I don't like fishing in the rain, unless I'm already out when it starts. I'm going to Vt. to see my girlfriend. Did you guys get a lot of Lake effect snow from that wind Tuesday and Wed.?
Jump start on filling the freezer !!!! Had some help ... Thanks guys !!!!! It's taco time !!!!!!!
Successful day on MDB. Got a newbie hooked!! He was pulling his last bait up on our way in at 2:30, turns to me and says "Dude I got a fish on!!" Freakin out by the hole, I thought he was joking. I grabbed the line...FISH ON, I had to calm him down and had him bring it in. 20 inch Laker first day out on ice on a 2 hr quick gear check trip..lol He's all in!! I got skunked....but did I?
Fyi, The spot you guys chatted with us really lit up after you left. We took another 30 or so in the last 1/2 hour. Nice one's too. Not like the ones you saw in Rick's sled. Cool guy, but after fishing all day and him keeping those dinks. He tells me at the parking lot that he thought I was taking all of the fish. I'll take the meat any day. But, MAN did my knife skills get put to the test!
Jon and I w/2 others went there, we hammered the Pumpkinseeds good size to them, the biggest I ever caught out there. Some guy was on the other side of the break and was walking as if to try and cross, so I stopped him, he seemed kind of lost. Some people.
