Talked to the guy that owns Bill's outdoors and he said there are ppl fishing it, mostly in the cove's. Just have to be careful. I'll be there in the am.

Thanks for the info Crappie Assain. I called Bill's Outdoors a couple of days ago, and got a message stating they would not be open until the 1st of Feb. Wow!!!!!

Do you fish Deep Creek often? I live in WV so it is a bit of a drive. I fish for perch and walleye. How about you, crappie only.

Exminer, i usually target gillz and crappie if i can find good size ones. I do fish for just about everything out there. I have never fished DCL before, but I'm going tomorrow. Lol. I hear they are goin to have some crappy weather out that way. I'm from upstate ny so I'm used to the snow. Just have to take your time driving.

I have heard of four people taking the plunge at Deep Creek this year. Two made the news and two did not. All made it out ok. The last one I heard about was lucky. Some people were driving by and saw him go through. They stopped and got him out.

There is a place on 219 South just after the burger king. It looks like a white barn kinda. they have bait, jigs and other fishing stuff. oh I think it is a hardware store as well. Hope this helps. Good luck!

thanks for the info. got a late start friday had a couple glitches. got to dcl about 2:30 got family check in at cottage and settle. went out scouting around north of green glade most places ice melted about 8 to 10 from shore. did not attempt to get on didn't see a sole on ice anywhere. went to the hardware bait shop you talked about and talk to them about possible places to fish. they reminded me about the guys that went though this season so i maybe thought i should scrap it this year. got up this morning and after about 4hrs of family stuff i seen a window of oppurtunity. headed for the back cove of green glade atlast clam shells on the ice went out and chatted to a couple fellow ice fisherman. didn't have my gear with me so i had to announce i wasn't a warden right from the get go. long story short got my license this evening and will be there in morning . all about 6inches of ice and not melted around edge there and their catching some nice perch! "anyone who believes globle warming is a joke don't icefish"

How did ya do on your day out your-end ? Yeah the last two winters temps have just been all over the place can't seem to get it to stay cold

your-end-ones-up · « **Reply #14 on:** Feb 19, 2013, 04:06 PM »

had lots of flags , but never had a bite wind was brutal wind chill must have been 10 below. stay for 3hrs got tired of resetting tipups , couldn't jig snow filled your hole in 30 seconds. no fish so guess i'll just have to eat crow for what i said about global warming. i'll come back next year with a better game plan. well i'm going to find out if raystown has any ice and may try that this weekend

Was the ice still pretty good still? Thinking about headed up Saturday

1976trout · « **Reply #16 on:** Feb 19, 2013, 09:06 PM »

I have never fished Green Glade Cove. Is there public parking, or a good place to park? Thinking about fishing there Saturday if there is any ice.

hesseltine32 · « **Reply #17 on:** Feb 20, 2013, 07:20 AM »

There isn't public parking on gg but there are places you can get away with parking on the side of the road or where roads end.

your-end-ones-up · « **Reply #18 on:** Feb 20, 2013, 04:36 PM »

yea ice was good about 6 with about 1" of snow on it. when we left to come home monday the ice around the edges where i was staying was locking up and the was a guy fishing right out from our cottage we were staying at on blakeslee dr.
