Kahle lake

anyone know how the repairs on Kahle Lake are progressing?

thank you psu_fish

Anyone know if there are any decent-sized carp in this lake?

keep the carp out
 
 

I've never caught them there, but I've seen them feeding on the top. They are in there, but like PaCarper suggests, not too many. I fish Kahle for panfish, mostly. Carp are fun to catch, but I like to eat what I catch. Therefore, I leave carp alone! LOL! There is to be an ice fishing tournament on Kahle Lake this year. If you go to the North East Ice Tour online, you can read all about it.

I can really say I've seen carp in Kahle. I've seen some monster snapping turtles though. I've seen musky tailing too
 
 
 
With the water so low, I may just lift the jon boat off the trailer at the water's edge instead of backing into the lake.  

I'll second the comment about the monster snappers! I saw one last summer that would have a hard time fitting in a wash tub. That thing was a monster! I also saw plenty of muskies. The one evening I was out after crappie, I kept seeing muskies skimming the surface. The entire dorsal fin and tail would be out. There were at least two fish. I saw this happen 6 or 7 times in an hour. It could have been the same 2 fish or as many as 7 fish. Couldn't tell. One was really big, the other was a bit smaller. All of the other ones were hard to judge. As far as the carp go, every time I see them, they are in the thick weeds in about 4-6 FOW. Hope that helps.

Anyone check the ice on Kahle lately? I can't wait to get out on it this year. Please let me know as soon as you hear that it's fishable. Thank you.

Still waiting for ice. Anyone do any recon yet?

If I didn't live 35 miles away, I would. I just figured that there might be someone who lived closer that has checked it out lately and could give me an update. I'm not sure why you took it upon yourself to be rude about it. Hopefully you feel better now. Have a nice day.

must be a steelhead fisherman...

35 miles is nothing if you call yourself an ice fisher

Thank you for the update Sir. It is very much appreciated.

We stopped by Kahle this evening on the south side.There were 6 vehicles in the lot and guys were on the ice.Some had gone out to the left and right off the ramp and there were a couple out from the woods at the end of the lot where you drive down in.There was also 1 guy out on the north side.I have no idea how much ice there is as it was raining and I wasn't dressed to go and check.

i see what you mean. it's why i don't post topics on here anymore, just share when i can, maybe check ice conditions. was trying to trade the maps i have to try and score a woodcock map. only ones i have seen either show gps coord. of some cribs, or a hand drawn map. nothing with depth bands. finally scored a kinzua map. going to scan it on a wide format. that'll take one hell of a tip for me to send, i paid cash for it. i also use this forum to save myself driving to every lake on earth to find safe ice. without this forum, more guys would chance it because they came all that way. safety in numbers man....

AMEN brothers. The lakes are big. Plenty of room, plenty of fish. I help people every chance that I get. Once in a while it pays off and someone helps me too. It's how we learn. I know nothing of Woodcock or I'd help you out there. I wish I could get one for Kahle, but as far as I know, none exist.
