If I can find someone to walk on with I'm going to tomorrow. Early ice on LG scares the heck outta me. I do know for a fact that a bay has been fished.

There is ice in some places but a lot of it just formed Saturday night.

please post updates on conditons of the ice tomorrow after you guys go out if possible. I was planning on going out saturday and hitting some other lakes before but if its 3" all over ill be on the real lake finally

Fishlakegeorge- You can't miss my portable. Black Ice cube. There will probably be a good handfull of us. Stop in and say hey. Believe me we'll be approaching with caution but all of us appreciate the emphasis on safety. It's not being a jerk at all-kingfshr16. Some of my buddies were a little more rude than that.

prchslyr · « **Reply #11 on:** Jan 12, 2010, 04:09 AM »

I'll also mention for safety's sake. Most of the locals around here know where to be and not to be walking around out by those islands. For those that don't know the lake as well that may take a trip up because they saw these posts. Stay the heck away from the islands. Do NOT try to walk between them. The water around them has a slight flow to it and doesn't freeze the greatest. In retrospect it may have been wise to keep it to myself. Once I decided I was settled on Harris, I noticed someone else from here was planning on making it so I made an attempt at buddying up until I realized I had a few people joining me.

i might drive up and check vets tomorrow... day off. I won't have time to fish it but will walk out and drill a hole. I will definately be fishing it end of the week even on 2". I'm hungry

Black cube on Harris eh, maybe we'll say hello. Thanks for the ice updates, hope you're having fun.

prchslyr · « **Reply #15 on:** Jan 12, 2010, 09:12 AM »

I'm on harris now. There's 5" near the islands. There are 10 of us out on the new ice with 2-3". Not much action. While I was posting this I got a flag and stripped lol. A few dinks bait stealers is all that's going on for me.

yeah this guy aint bravin 2" ice even after losing 25 pounds. its weird, last year first ice out there was slow and the fish were also bighting ridiculously light . 2 years ago they were practically jumping out of the holes till that rat race started. thanks for the info!!! stay on top.

prchslyr · « **Reply #20 on:** Jan 12, 2010, 12:52 PM »

Waaaayyy slow for me. I'll try again thursday. It didn't look like anyone was doing the greatest. We hung around on 5-6" of ice til some old dude headed out without batting an eye. We followed his footprints out.

fishinfurkarma · « **Reply #21 on:** Jan 12, 2010, 01:01 PM »

suprised u didt get blown off the ice with all this wind? thats some hard core fishin!

prchslyr · « **Reply #22 on:** Jan 12, 2010, 01:33 PM »

The wind was bad. Mad props to the guys out there with no shelter. Bird21s was out there near me most of the time. No shelter and still outfished me like 8-1. He didn't want to get warm because it would make it colder when he got out. Call me a wuss but I spent 2/3 of the day in my cube with the coleman going. Which is also why I did so poorly (Gotta blame it on something!) The guys that did the best did a ton of moving around.

iceman260 · « **Reply #23 on:** Jan 12, 2010, 04:32 PM »

Was on lake George today. Started at huddle beach no luck went to harris caught 6 perch. my buddy got anice pickeral. That two inches of ice was good and hard.

prchslyr · « **Reply #24 on:** Jan 12, 2010, 04:40 PM »

That makes me feel better that I wasn't alone with the slow bite.

shearinsanity · « **Reply #25 on:** Jan 12, 2010, 05:02 PM »

Two inches is too scary for me. Good luck with that buddy.... I only weigh about 170 so Im not a fat body...

prchslyr · « **Reply #26 on:** Jan 12, 2010, 05:32 PM »

Believe me man. I'm no daredevil. It scared the heck out of me. I didn't even like watching them guys walk out. Tonight and tomorrow we should be making some good ice where everything is already capped. This weekend will be crazy down there. Hope noone pushes it to far though.

needice · « **Reply #27 on:** Jan 12, 2010, 06:04 PM »

How is the ice around silver bay looking like?Was thinking of maybe coming up on thursday or friday.Fished near there a couple years ago and had some fun.

LAKEGEORGEFISHER · « **Reply #28 on:** Jan 12, 2010, 06:13 PM »

just to let you guys know that were on lake george today, DEC was watching you from assembly point. usually no big deal but just giving you a heads up.

prchslyr · « **Reply #29 on:** Jan 12, 2010, 06:20 PM »

I definitely appreciate the heads up. But, there's no shame in my game. I guess its good to know they're keeping an eye on people.
