IFA, where'd you go out?  I was out on East side 4-7pm, hoped with the dark something might change.  NOPE. Gonna do a late nite shift tomorrow.

Fished today 1_9_14 from 7:30AM until 11:00 AM off of Bakers Beach. 15 to 18 FOW. Jigging. Caught 25 perch from 4" to maybe 7". All released. Lots of action but not 1 fish that could be kept. It's fun to catch a bunch of fish, but a little frustrating when there are no 12 inchers mixed in.
I fish because I am an optimist.

Yup, I'm pretty honest on here, if I'm not catching good fish, I'll let you know.  If I'm on the hot bite, you won't hear a word from me!

Nice Ljc!  That is the way to fix the over population.  Good for you for being the first to "admit" to keeping smaller perch, it's the right thing to do.  THANK YOU.

I believe he is referring to his home or favorite lake. Not his personal lake. Have to read all posts to understand where people are coming from not 1/2 way through. I have fished Cando on many occasions. Nice lake but have to put your time in. Nice views for when it's slow. Hope the weather doesn't mess the ice up. Would be dangerous for fisherman who were there 3 days ago and coming in thinking like 3 days ago..

I'm from CT and know someone that lives on Canadarago and I was just wondering how the ice is and if anyone is catching anything.

The ice was around 6"+ before saturday's pouring rain and 50* temp.  I have not been out on it today to measure.  As far as catching fish..well..I"m sitting here at the computer, what does that tell ya

Thanks, and have you gotten any walleye at all out of there in the past few years? i heard that the population wasn't very strong. Not asking for where or how you caught em, but if you have heard of any being caught. We went up last year and even night fished and didnt get anything except for perch and one big pickerel

Very very few walleye have been taken out of the lake through the ice over the past several years...like, count them on one hand.  Read my various posts in the Fishing Cando thread.  Basically, there is virtually no natural reproduction, very low survival rate of stocked fingerlings, and yet during the summer many people still continue to take out as many of the remaining adults as they can.  So, it's like your bank account...if you keep making withdraws without putting a paycheck in, you're bankrupt pretty soon!

System , that's a good way of putting it, i think that also holds true for the largemouth and smallmouth bass , years ago we used to catch a lot of smallmouth but not so many any more if we do catch any bass it's c&r 99% of the time. I know some fishermen keep the bass which they have the right to but like you say sooner or later the population is going to go the other way .

Not everyone that fishes Cando posts their results on here.  There's guys that regularly catch the eyes through the ice out there.

Fished east side today with papacoondog. Had steady action and we were chasing flags all day. Came back with an empty bait bucket. Got 20 YP and 2 CP. Largest YP was 12" and pickerel were 22" and 23". Kept all YP under 10" and C&R everything else. Nice day out.

Nice LCD, I that beautiful weather must have been so great..I was not happy at work.  And, you not only talk the talk, but actually walk the walk - Kudos to you for c&r the big perch and eating the shortys.  You guys are the best.
