    slower  than anything today on the pond  only managed about 6 keepers from 6am till 100.   One was a biggie though.  Caught a 18 or so inch large mouth along with a few dink large mouths in the 6 to 8 inch range

    Steelhead on ice .. From the hardwaters seat..
    Walking over 100' today was sweet.
    Can't wait until morning to do it again.
    May sneak another week in before booting up the waders ..
    Well ... ?

    HT I would love to come up and join, but at this time it is not in the cards.   Between chores on the farm, helping take care of granny and overall feeling the pain of what it coast you guys to come up to the river..............
    Trying to save up for a shanty too,   I have had enough of no place to get warm on the ice.   Trying to decide between a sled pop up 2 man or a larger tent type so all my nephews can come.  Also sonar is on my mind, but the shanty will come first.  Will PM you when the time gets closer to purchase.   Next year I really hope to get up there with you on LG or Schroon.

    Waders are going to have to wait awhile longer. Too hard to leave good fishing for crowd control fishing.
    Heck I may never walk in a Ontario trib again .. Well that might be pushing it.

    Good luck to any late icers ..

    Thanks guys,
    2012-13 was a fantastic season on ice.. While I didn't chase the pike like normal this year , it was great to be back on the big lake chasing trout after a non-freeze 11-12 season..
    Now FINALLY I'm DONE, Done, done on the ice.. Going to pressure wash all the fish slime from my gear today and pack it up for 2013-14 season... CANT WAIT !!!!
     
    A little break next weekend to get some things in order around the house before the open water season kicks into full gear again.. Man , gotta love NY for the opportunities it offers ..
    Gonna be making the SR trip to fish Fri-3-22 if anyone is around and wants to share some water ..
    So long Ice, it's been GREAT !!!!

    HT-
    Birthday weekend for me, and my wife wants to go fishing on 3/22, but it'll have to be a daytrip with one still in school, so I'll have to pass on the river that weekend.  If the ice is off the little finger lakes, I'll be shore fishing.
    Nail 'em, though.

    Hey lucky you still fish?
    Was waiting to hear if anything happened yesterday pm.
    Don't have to punch the clock till 11 tomorrow and am thinking of steeling a couple hours in the elevator shaft  first.
    But not if the run is over.

    Fished Green point  today and brought  46 keepers home.  I kept 7 inches and up.  Most were 8 t o9 inches, but there were a few hawgs.   Went alone and was running all day.   Fish wanted perch eyes and fatheads the most.   Bite was VERY light but they were hungry.   Caught a few that  had minnows in their mouth  along with the one on my hook.     Ice was 9 inches but getting bad. 

    Probably it for me too on the ice too.
    HT got to work on that weekend.
