Ok Tourney Guys

Won a couple of door prizes and that was it. Junk fishing all weekend. Queechy was in much better shape today. You could actually walk on top without sinking. Guy got busted for trying to enter a DEAD walleye in the Bailey Mtn Tourney yesterday. Dude was hammered when he showed up with the fish. Was actually pretty funny to hear him explain how he caught a fish and it "froze" to death in 42 degree weather. DUH !!!. I'm all fished out and exhausted right now. Gonna have to take the week off and attack them again next weekend. Crooked Lake and Burden Lake tourneys both next saturday. Also, I believe Tim Blodgett is putting something together for Saratoga also next weekend. Oh well, I'll probably fish Crooked Lake next saturday and then head back up north on sunday in search of the elusive lakers.

You got some fatties there bro, NICE catch.

I know your beat but don't give up on those lakers. I'm looking into some new water for the weekend. Got the handles for the auger friday , man what a deal, again thanks to your dad !!!!  I'm Happy!!!!

Looks like a great time being had there Jimmy. Good luck on Ballston. I was there this morning for a few hours. Had a little better day than the last. Brought home a few crappie. Also iced a 12" and 20" bass. But it definitely has slowed down there. Think we're in the mid-winter lull right now.

Gonna take a week or so off from fishing. I've been neglecting my poker playing lately, and have a few tourneys coming up that I need to sharpen up for.

Fishing has definitely slowed down. I need a break and then I am gonna make a real push to land them lakers. Lakes are probably gonna be a mess after weds and thurs anyway until we get another deep freeze. As far as Glass Lake and the Bailey Mtn tourney, there was a total of about 20 fish caught by roughly 260 entries in the tourney. The only category to pay all places was pickerel obviously. There was only 1 walleye and 1 trout caught i believe. We got skunked on Reichards. I will never fish that lake again. That was the dirtiest lake I have ever seen. Should have fished Glass like we were going to. I may fish the Crooked Lake tourney on sat and thats it for me this weekend. Taking Sunday off. Time to go drinking Saturday night.

Jimmy you dog you !!  Nice gathering there, did you get to stay right in N.O. ?

......Looking like unsociable burnt toast.....

Hey Jimmy I was on Ballston sunday morning at the crack of dawn... c and r' ed about 60-70 bluegills but only one perch and no crappie. No flags on tipups.  Bluegills annoy the crap out of me, couldn't seem to find anything else.  Not even a Ballston Pig.
Gonna try Burden tuesday am around 7 I'll let ya know how it went.

wow, nice bass. haven't been on ballston since the beginning of jan.
how thick is the ice up there??
