thats true except any sign would be torn down this is a town owned culvert pipe between to parcels of land , and the people using this right of way are paying another land owner to park , this debate has gone on for years and the town always has backed the fisherman ... the problem is this land owner has some honest complaints .... like the noise like the trash and like the wood being used .... interesting note the DEC uses this access to get on the water also ..... as sportssmen if we want it to stay open ... we have to pick up after the slops we have to tell people hey keep it down ! we have to police it a little you see the mans wood moved put it back or at least knock on his door and offer to help!
Murf 20 .... I was there all day did not see any one get wet??
Just like the Amish Mafia! Wasssup Trap!?
Go see Lebanon Levi..... He'll send John on his scooter, get to Oneida around April 1.
emtorn, the ice at big bay is fine there where many people there today. ice thickness 4-6 inch's. good luck and have fun
So....... Is BB still a mine field of crap ice like before the warm up?? Have Monday afternoon free and the kids are out of school and I wanted to get them out with the new shack and chase some pickerel. Only got my oldest out once so far this season and my middle one is really chomping at the bit to get out fishing but I'm not going to take them out there if they're going to end up swimming. I know...I know....." Go burn some gas and check the ice for yourself". And I will once I get there but if its still scketchy I would rather save myself the pissed off kids in the car when we get there and I don't feel comfortable taking them out on it and we don't have time then to find somewhere else for the afternoon.
If your after pickerel and worried about the ice, you might try some of the smaller madison co lakes, like tuscarora, deruyter, or lake moraine..all have lots of pickerel and probably more ice, check the small water madison co thread.
Okay, after reading through all the pages I am still sort of confused as to where is best to access BB. I'm coming from Rochester and have never fished it before and am not familiar with the area so would anyone be able to post or pm me in the right direction? It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! -Jeff
