Great to hear there's 6" of black ice at Wally's.Does the lake normally freeze at the far south end where School Street crosses the lake?
Hey Cowboy,what are those fish in your buds pic next to the perch?Walleyes FN
Hey all, Just wondering where the best access around the Batchellerville bridge is. I have never fished the lake through the ice and I figured its about time. Any information would be greatly appreciated !
Hi everyone! Does anyone know how things are looking in the Broadalbin boat launch/Sand Island/Frenchmans Creek area? A few of us are going to try and walk out this afternoon for a few hours after work. Any ice depths, snow depths, or suggestions for that area would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks very much GitRDone. That's awesome to hear, that's just the critter we're after lol. How much ice did you have? Is it driveable by truck or are we better off walking? Trying to go from the boat launch the mile or so out near sand island, and that's a LONG walking dragging gear lol.
You don't need to walk that distance to Sand Island for fish. Plenty of good fishing in a shorter distance. If you have a topo type map you will see the drops and structures you are searching for to your LEFT off Broadalbin Launch. Can't give specifics but need to find those areas. Maps are general and diligent searching locates them. Don't follow the crowd unless you want to talk all day and don't care about flags. Not trying to stir things up but anything foe less of a walk would be Northhampton.......... Kim
Thanks for the info Hardwaternubie53! Hopefully i can find some fish!
Pulled some eyes out of the Dead Sea today. I landed 2 , lost 3. Rowan landed 4 . Tons of ice. About 6-8 inches of snow on the ice.
