In regards to registering a quad or snowmobile

[BigCountry17]

Hi everyone, just had a question about registering a quad or snowmobile in the state of New Hampshire. I will be heading up to Lake Winnipesaukee again to Ice fish this winter and would like to take the sled or quad up. Didn't know if they have a 3-day pass so I don't have to change the Mass plates. I know that Vermont has a 3-day pass thing and you have to carry insurance which makes it expensive and a pain in the rear. I hope its easier for New Hampshire. Any information is much appreciated. Thanks again

No pass as far as I know. Out of state reg I believe around $70. Good from start of May to end of June. Don't know why we don't have reciprocity on OHRV's.  Guess its a hassle tracking down violaters if there from out of state.

Personally its just a way to dig deeper into our pockets......You dont have to get a visitors "Pass" for your car in another state or canada or mexico

am i reading this right.......your registration for an atv is not the same as a boat registration.......if i was to go to  maine or mass with my boat i am legal.......just need to purchase a milfoil sticker for maine......however, if i go icefishing in maine or mass i need to get a registration for those states........am i correct?

Jibbs That's the way it is June 30/08 to June 30/09 $73.00 Non resedent. If I want to ride in Me. or Ma. You have to register there also and pay the frieght again. It SUCKS

hey art......what's that pond that is connected to silver lake called.......there are surely some bass in there, but it is one heck of an adventure to get in there......also, can you park at silver in the winter along side the road if you are a non resident or do they not want you to park there due to plowing, etc.......i know the main launch is residents only.......lastly, is there a way on that back pond in the winter.......i would like to wet a few lines this winter, but don't want to cause any waves with the parking situation.......we witnessed a few people back there on the beach and it looked like they were parked along side the road......let me know

Hey Jibbs, when the time comes and we get some ice on those lakes and ponds, let me know when you head up to Lake Attitash if its the same one I am thinking of up by the Amesbury town line. I went to fish that lake last year, but the edges were so broken up cause of the rain it wasn't worth it.

it is.......some nice largies in that lake.......they have a derby each  year and the size they weigh in is incrediable.......i think the top ten last year produced 4 1/2 or better

Yup, Jibbs is right, I fish it every year (for the past 8 or so) and just about every year the "Top 10" fish are all over 4lbs. My buddy and I got knocked out of 8th and 10th last year with 2 that weighed 4-7 and 4-8.  Years back we placed 4th and 8th with fish again in the 4 and 1/2 range. The winner is usually 6 or 7 plus .

Jibbs, depending on how many of the "Strictly Business Crew" are going, I can give you guys a hand. We use a 4 wheeler with a 4X6 flat-trailer behind to tow gear and passengers.

Rumor has it their may still be a couple, but to my knowlege the last pike caught there (through the ice) was in 2001/2 ?

the biggest one i know is 44 inches long forget what it weighed its hanging over an old freinds pitcher window

Its been a few years now since Maine had reciprocity with N.H.  Strictly another money thing for the State in typical govt. fashion....

Keep me posted on when that derby is at Lake Attitash.

Will do.

It is usually held the weekend or second weekend after the Winni Derby.

i don't wan't to resorrect any phantom pike from the past or anything but i fished the flat on attitash early spring this year its flat and very shallow while floating around in the canoe i noticed somthing whitish on the bottom and paddled over to it . it was a fish head that somone had discarded was either a pike or a very large pickeral now if it were a pik it had to be in the 4 to 5 lb. range judging from the size of this thing it was big..i'm talking about the area on the other side of the bridge.

[snohiker]

were you in the lake or or the other side of the bridge witch is meadow brook there are or were alot of very big pickerel in there as well
