Ice thickness Carry Bay/ Islands
« on: Dec 28, 2010, 11:32 AM »
Has anyone fished Carry Bay, went by last day of Duck Season 12-16 Carry Bay and most of North Hero and Alburg locked up.  People were fishing the West side of Alburg, have a camp on Carry Bay would love to hear any ice total reports. Thanks be safe and good luck to all out there starting the season.

Good to hear there is plenty of ice at Carry.  Be out there tomorrow thru Sunday.  Five days of fishin seems like a good way to kick the season off to me.

heard its been slow, i couldnt even jig up perch out there 2 weeks ago, had some friends pike fishing right off the access, only caught about 5 keepers, but nothing too impressive, hopefully things have turned around by now

I found there is more pickerel than pike, but sometimes just the opposite. Sometimes you wont even get a flag.
