Hinkley Lake, NG for fishing, don't waste your time.
You should check out the West Canda Creek book, a great read, and it talks about Hinkley being a dead lake due to the draining over the winter time. They tried stocking walleye but with the drain it didn't hold the correct ecosystem to house a health population of fish.  :-\

Still looks good to have ice on it, meaning that it won't be long till we have ice.  ;D

this morning my pool was frozen over and there was a big eight pointer in my back yard. now all i need is for the the Baltimore ravens to win today. o and it would be nice if all the lakes freeze. lol

There was a bit of edge ice on the small lake we cross to get to our hunting watches.. it was a nice site..
I know last year we had to use an oar to bust up the ice to get across the last couple of trips. I did not want to break the beautiful ice :( 
Looks like there is a possiblity of another early season here in the southern Adirondacks :)

Keep those fingers crossed
