    hi river rat and tks for the welcome! I’m going to try a small lake across andalusia road from the camp grounds. I was on Big Island a couple weeks ago right before the Conservation Club entrance..lots of small ones I did better on a small pond just on the oter side of the canal..north. I fish the canal alot in spring when the water is high by highway 92. Hope all the folks on Big Island keep up the good fight against all the proposed changes there… just worrie about the environmental impact!

Again, welcome to the site. It’s the best site your going to find on the web and the best bunch of guys your going to meet.

    Well had a change in plans on sunday, I went with my brother in law to a old rock quarry North of Cordova. Did good for gills with green teardrop/waxie 23 fish total mostly hand size got 5 crappie 3/4 to 1 lb they seemed to like pink/white ratso with a waxie. Some nice bass in there but didnt take any minnows with.

    It’s ok, I know that in this sport, it is easy to forget that there are some girls out here. You are forgiven. And maybe someday I will take you up on that boat offer.

    Hey tweaked33, Welcome to the site. I’m a neighbor a little to the north. Pool 13 and 14 mostly. Are you talking about the sand pit just off of 84 on the river? There are some great crappies in there year around. I’ve never Ice fished it before, but I may have to give it a try!

    Hi rooster and ty, no but I know the water you are talking about never fished it though. My in law took back roads and we were somewhere between fulton and erie I think never fished that one before sun. I would love to fish the one right before you enter Cordova on the left, it has some of the nicest structure I have ever seen too bad its all private. Hell I’ve even offered those folks to sign a liability waiver for thier insurance but to no avail. Would even pay a yearly membership oh well. I’m going out tomorrow to the lake I was sopposed to fish on sunday. I broke down and finally bought an ice shanty today so I cant wait to try it out!! Thinking later in the week for a trip to lake george to see if I can locate some eyes!
