Agreed, that lake is touch and go lots of springs. I stick to places I know I dont travel over lots of Ice there not worth falling through for a couple fish.Be Careful!!

Fished off Candlewood shores in Brookfield. Had a great day caught several smallies and a handful of perch. Had 6"-7" of Black ice. Saw a few snowmobiles go racing up the lake towards New Milford.

sportsman79 · « **Reply #14 on:** Jan 18, 2010, 06:07 PM »

i want to go back this saturday but i dont know about the ice. please keep me posted on ice conditions thanks guys

Depends where you fish. I always check first when on that lake. We had 6-7 inches black ice on Friday so there should be some decent ice left. The nights will cool down before the weekend and should be good, but always check to be safe especially on Candlewood

sportsman79 · « **Reply #16 on:** Jan 19, 2010, 03:58 PM »

yeah we fish down towards new milford i dont know if its called chiminey point im not sure but thats where we fish

linebreaker · « **Reply #17 on:** Jan 19, 2010, 05:59 PM »

Yea we could just about see chimney point from where we were. Should be ok for ice

sportsman79 · « **Reply #18 on:** Jan 20, 2010, 04:57 AM »

plus now i believe the rest of the week isnt going to be too warm the nights are suppose to be back down in the 20's or high teens
