cant go wrong with suckers between 6" to 8" and if you can jig up some smelt while you are there better yet. if you have a fish finder find what depth the smelt are traveling at set just above them ,alon with setting deep i also set a couple just under the ice about 3' down i know most will say its a salmon set but i have gotten just as many lake trout doing this because the smelt travel just under the ice alot of the time ,plus you may score on some salmon as well. good luck
yea the laker fishing is really tough! i like the lake but i getting 5 lakers a day is a great day! but the pike and pannies can be huuuuuuge! ive taken second in the derby 4 years ago with a 5 pounder. have fun and stay safe guys and leave the weelers at home!
Here's a pic of the pike I caught on Tuesday, 26.5 lbs 45 inches long(Image removed from quote.)
Thanks guys.Being on black ice was awesomw. We got to see that fish come to the hole and then run away numerous times.Couldn't even describe the feeling that went through my stomach when I saw him the first time.He was caught on 8# mono.We caught a pile of lakers that day too
You took second in the derby with a 5 pound pike?? Or laker??
I am planning on coming up next weekend to finally get some ice fishing in, first time fishing this lake, first time fishing any Adirondack Lake actually, grew up in Wisconsin and moved out here this past year.
