Brad,Do you ice fish Cowanesque? I fish there a few times in the spring for crappiesand perch, but have been told that you cannot ice fish it. What's the straightskinny?
Hi BradI live outside of Wellsboro, and fish all the local public lakes and some private ponds in the area...also take several trips to Pisgah in Bradford County each year...Welcome to Ice Shanty...Ford Hume aka iceintioga
iceintioga,have you ever fished that small pond on the right on rt 349 just north of Gaines?Brad
Iceintioga,I have had the same results at Pisgah that you have had. Usually/sometimesquite a few nice gills, the perch have always been hard to catch. But they sureare nice, when you can get them. I only live 20 min from Pisgah, let me know when you are going to be there and I'll try and meet you.
Hey i live in Ansonia and me and my dad normally fish hamilton and beachwood all the time i think that pond you are talking about is beachwood and there are a lot of nice fish in there we just got a new boat and are going to try downrigging in 8 to 12 ft of water hopefully we could hook into one of those big browns we will so fish alot in new york hemlock and lamoka. I am 100% sure you can fish cow vally on the ice all though they do stock it for trout it is a better perch lake and bass. Ps watch for the river that goes through the lake sometimes the ice can be 10 inch's and all of a sudden go to 1 inch and thats not fun the waters moving fast. good thing i was running and only my waste fell in but keepright on going or i might not be here lol i can laugh at it now but not at the time we packed up and got the heck off there
BradI haven't fished that pond...but I am always ready to fish a new spot...Do you mean the pond that looks sorta like a beaver pond?I always assumed that that place was private and never thought to ask permission...Have you fished it?ford
