Sandy pond has ice and people are fishing off the Wigwam, Elms, and Green Point. The ice is not consistent but most places having 4 to 6 inches of solid ice. There are bad spots so be very careful if you are heading out.
The perch fishing on Sandy Pond has been very slow this year. The low water this fall and lack of dredging in the channel this summer seems to be the problem. The perch were unable to come into Sandy Pond From Lake Ontario as they normally do in the fall. People are still catching fish but no big numbers have been reported. Most people are bring home about 10 to 15 keepers.
The pike fishing on the pond has been ok though. These fish are in the pond all year so the water levels don’t both them. Most people I know have been catching between 3 to 10 pike a day fishing with shinners under tip ups.
Crappie and bluegill fishing off of Green Point has been hit or miss so far. Most people have not been getting good numbers of keepers. They are reporting lots of action just most of it is coming from small fish. There have been a few people that have had good days bring home 20+ keepers.
I am headed to Six Town Pond this morning as I have heard the crappie bite is picking up there and I know ill be able to catch some pike.
