Veryyy slow bite today... Had high hopes with the weather coming in and it did not produce

Spent 4 hours off hearthstone this morning without a single flag or chaser before packing it in. Figured it would have been great today but nope not a thing.

Must be the lakers on the perch beds are always aggressive. It's always a game of keep away unless you want to hook a few. At least 10 times today lakers followed perch up towards the hole. You could literally look down the hole and watch them chase the perch. It cracked us up today, my buddies brother hooked a laker while he was on the phone with his tungsten jig sitting still. Perch bite was on fire.

Beach road bait and tackle main drag threw the village by the bowling ally

I really dont care I dont fish in the village.  I'm just saying I wouldn't complain about hitting up 307 that's like 10 mins from the lake.

[ice tripper]

There was snow dog tracks heading sw of pk Sunday morning so they were out in the middle of the lake on Saturday.

I wonder who that could have been😎🎣

[ship of fools]

It was frozen yesterday very thin MAYBE 2” on it should be “walkable” justttt spuddd make sure you hit all the eyeballs

The area I mentioned was open Monday at 3 pm when i left.

I talked with JJ who was involved in a rescue a few years ago and let the organization that rescues them know

[Adironzach]

Don't remember.

All good, I've got your back 

There's a reason why Logan named it the BS thread...its going to be so cold up there this weekend people will flake.

Anyone fishing today how much snow they get yesterday?

[flyfish413]

You had your fun the other day!

That I certainly did!

[wec]

Anyone fishing today how much snow they get yesterday?

5 inches around a PK area.

[hardwaterhonkey]

Anyone ever ponder the idea of a splake or two being in lake George? Chances of a couple brook trout flushing in are decent, one was caught in schroon I saw and got my wheels turning it’s possible but what’s the reality?

Moosehead lake in Maine has a robust population of brookies and lakers but i never hear of splake getting caught

like 4" of snow, crusted over. wind was punishing, sandblasted with snow,had to be 40mph gusts, but worth the trip

its weird I wonder if its because they spawn over different structures and the lakes being so vast with so many spawning areas that its rare they cross breed?

[60Fishman]

I have never heard of splake being spawned in the wild, I believe they really are only spawned artificially in a hatchery between a male brook trout and female laker.

[CatskillsFisher]

I personally saw a splake come thru the ice on LG a few years ago

you are correct about that very very few lakes that they do naturally reproduce in, just throwing the thought around

[ICE WANDERER]

           Has anyone driven down to the beach at Hearthstone?

           IW

[hardwaterhonkey]

Anyone fishing The Hague tourney this weekend?

[Spoondangler]

           Has anyone driven down to the beach at Hearthstone?

           IW

I was the last to leave on Tuesday round 4:30 and it was still drivable (though I drove up the hill round noon to avoid getting stuck).  Not sure if it iced up since then, but people were makin it up fine at the end of the day tuesday.

[warren53]

4 wheelers getting on at hearthstone yet???

[Spoondangler]

4 wheelers getting on at hearthstone yet???

On Tuesday it was only 4-5 inches maybe 5.5 in spots, so not that day.

[Lundpredator]

How much snow is on the lake? 

[Adironzach]

How much snow is on the lake?

And inch, maybe two in spots. A lot of it is compacted down or wind sheered. Out of huletts

[fishon10]

Does anyone know of what the conditions are around Gull bay?  It's a long drive for me and any info. would be much appreciated.  Feel free to PM me if you feel more comfortable with that.  Thanks.

They are there Nick, some days are better than others. What were you using for bait on the tip ups, how far down were they and how deep was the water you were in? Do you have a flasher?

[Nick_]

Yea I have a flasher was jigging primarily in 84ft of water got 1 chaser but that’s it(had suckers 3 ft of bottom) and yea you’re right I hope it’s overcast tomorrow
