SOUTH BAY CHAMPLAIN

[Ice Chipper]

FISHED BAY TODAY, BOAT LAUNCH SIDE AND CAUGHT 1-3" PERCH JIGGING WITH SPIKES. 12 TO 14 GUYS FISHING WITH TIP UPS. I THINK SOMEBODY RANG A BELL AT 11 O'CLOCK BECAUSE I WATCHED MOST PACK UP AND LEAVE AT THE SAME TIME. I SHOULD HAVE LEFT WITH THEM. STAYED UNTIL 2 AND SAW VERY LITTLE ON GRAPH,GOOD LUCK!

You were fishing the wrong side better fishing on the other side of the bridge

How thick was the ice?

[ICEHOLE]

Fished it for the first time on saturday. what a zoo!  I didnt expect so many people! tip up fishing was VERY slow. Jigging for me was poor, would mark fish, bounce my jig and they would flee the scene. My buddy and his girlfriend 10' away did much better jigging. i didnt measure but i would say 8-9"? there were wheelers and side by sides out there

  I thought about that, but I didn't want to park and drag my sled across that bare RD.

There is a spot to unload then you can park your car

No it’s just past the entrance to the launch you can pull off the road and unload there is a break in the guard rails that leads to the ice very easy to get on

Lazy people get the least amount of fish, just saying
