I specialize in trout and salmon through the ice. Mostly Cape ponds and an occasional trip to Wallum Lake in Douglas. I am trying to put together a weekend in Lake George New York to ice fish. This would be Presidents Day in Feb. I have trolled there many times for Lakers and Landlocks and would love to set a set of five in front of the Sagamore Inn in Bolton's Landing.
I got three Salmon last year all on the same day at Cliff pond ( kept one ten pounder and gave it to Bassmaster on the way home). Peter's put out a couple too. Biggest trout were 3 and 4 pounders, surprisingly a lot of big Rainbows last year. Last springs stocking was the best we had in twenty years on the cape so with the fall drop and last spring's holdovers it should be great. I do some perch and bass jigging in Waquaqet, got a couple 14 inch plus yellow pwerch there last winter and some nice largemouths. Down Eastham way are some great Pickerel and smallmouth ponds.
What I like most of all is setting out the tilts and starting up the coleman stove and cooking! Venison sausage, eggs and homefries, Pheasant, venison and fresh trout for lunch! Ooh Boy that's living!
