You guys are too easy...I'm breaking stones. I don't fish Harris and never would.
I have never fished it either.
I tried one year midday after spending the entire morning out deep...saw the madness and was deterred. It would be fun to pike fish that spot.TJM makes a good point...I've come across plenty of illegally placed no trespassing signs.
People are too preoccupied with trout there. There are definelty pike that size in the lake. Wouldn't surprise me at all if they shock some when they survey the lake.
I just have to throw my 2 cents in. First biggest laker iv ever seen or heard of being caught on lg came out of Harris bayNext I have seen at least 3 pike well over 20lbs come out of lg. I dont thi k most people go to LG for pike. If more people spent time relying for pike and using proper baits to target bigger fish I'm sure you would see a lot more +20lbs fish. Ssmokin not sure why your shocked laker charter boats catch bass and monsters. Iv seen poke and pickerel caught just under the ice and off or near bottom in over 90fow. Why would bass not travel to the depths looking for food. All around the world big fish,eat little fish, that swim like a rapala. Just for the record im just passing some info here I'm not trying to start an argument or try to convince people to fish Harris bay in fact hope the posted signs keep some peome off Harris place gets crowded as it is lol
My apologies if my previous post about seeing the chain and posted signs was misleading. I’m not suggesting people trespass. I seldom fish there, as I prefer deep water lakers. But I often drive by Harris and see the crowd and the mess and hear the complaints about it as well as people not being far enough off the road. As for northern’s, I’ve seen some or Richie’s slammers and have a photo from a 22-pounder my buddy caught about ten years ago, or more, that won the tournament they used to have. If you talk to anyone who dives in Lake George, they’ll tell you there are both enormous pike and lakers in there. So big, you’d think twice before you went skinny-dipping.
The 10 day forecast is looking pretty good with no days above freezing and low winds. The next 3 days especially. This might be our shot!

Yep, next few days look promising if water is cold enough. (Image removed from quote.)
