Well it finally happened last night,the lake froze as far as I can see from the batchellerville bridge.I checked this evening and I am happy to say there's over an inch,I don't think it's going anywhere.the best time of year has finally begun

o2rmk800 · « **Reply #274 on:** Jan 05, 2016, 06:52 PM »

Heard that mid lake in front on Lanzis is still open water, I would bet it will freeze over tonight though.

I am new to IS, interested in the Walleye Tourney but heard that it often sells out. Is there a limit on the number of people who can enter?

snelly · « **Reply #280 on:** Jan 08, 2016, 10:49 AM »

1750 sold out may not happen anyway

ActiveTrapChecker · « **Reply #281 on:** Jan 08, 2016, 10:52 AM »

thanks for the info. this weekend's weather will certainly go a long way in determining whether it happens or not

RaCKaHoLIC518 · « **Reply #282 on:** Jan 08, 2016, 08:42 PM »

We need 9" off sinclair point by the 18th or no challenge.... Fingers crossed.... And toes!

snelly · « **Reply #283 on:** Jan 09, 2016, 06:06 AM »

I think everyone should say a prayer to the ice gods that what we have makes it through the next 48hrs. then maybe we got a shot

octanehi5 · « **Reply #284 on:** Jan 09, 2016, 06:18 AM »

why by the 18th that's 12 days before the tourney.with the weather coming after sunday night,with a little positive energy it will be ready

I spoke to Lou from fuel-n-food yesterday and he said, a lot of people come from out of town so it's enough of a heads up. The reason for measuring 9" off sinclair point, leads to the conclusion there will be about 11-12" of ice just about everywhere else on the lake.

octanehi5 · « **Reply #286 on:** Jan 09, 2016, 06:52 AM »

I was just checking long range forecast,after sunday it will be below freezing for more than a week

RaCKaHoLIC518 · « **Reply #287 on:** Jan 09, 2016, 07:07 AM »

You are 100% right, that is going to help a lot. Constant ice making

ADK Tank · « **Reply #288 on:** Jan 09, 2016, 08:00 AM »

Was on 5" last night on the south end of the lake, only 1 keeper eye.

Does anyone know if the ice thickness applies to the GSLFF tourney? Or will that go on regardless?

Thanks.

headjigger · « **Reply #290 on:** Jan 09, 2016, 10:51 AM »

I'm headed up to the great sacandaga lake the weekend of the 22nd, does anyone know of any local places where I can lodge ? I'll be with around 2-5 people. Im looking for a cabin, house on the water, cottage, maybe a local motel near the lake, we don't need much just need a shower stove and a couple
Beds. We are also looking to target northern pike. We normally just use large shiners, creek chubs, or suckers. Anyone have any info on pike fishing up there too ?? Sorry asking a lot traveling almost 5 hours and want a heads up with gettin on some fish. Thanks in advance !!

Hey Cody, I'm heading there the 17th and 18th so I've been looking too. There's the Flip Inn in northville right by the water 90 bucks for a double very close to Daves bait and Blue Moon motel in Broadalbin about 10 min south of the lake 75 cash for a double. Basic accommodations. There's nicer places but they are further away. Two bait shops on the west shore too.

As for pike, I'm going in pretty blind but I've read almost every sacandaga thread in this site. Lots of info on here, pretty much find structure and you'll find fish. I guess there's a bunch of stump fields but I haven't been able to pinpoint locations yet but I'm working on it.

Codyjames215 · « **Reply #295 on:** Jan 09, 2016, 06:22 PM »

I'm pretty much right where your at lol. I called flip but they didn't answer gonna call the other 2 places tomorrow. I read just about every thread on here too lol. I called Dave's bait shop and he said when I came in he would give me all the info we need.

flyfish413 · « **Reply #296 on:** Jan 09, 2016, 07:19 PM »

Yup that's pretty much what he told me too. Good luck man, I'll report back if I see or hear of anything interesting once I get up there. We will try to save you guys a few 40's too haha.
