Fishing Report 12/23/2013

The weather is about to turn a lot colder which will be good for making ice the next few days. I am guessing Lake View will be fishable right after Christmas. Parts of Sandy Pond might also be locked up good if we don’t get much wind. Sackets harbor and Henderson harbor may also have good ice by then.

The Salmon River has dropped to 750 cfs which is my personal favorite level to fish it at. The cold weather coming up with make fishing tough but it will also cut down on the pressure. I would fish beads or sacs under a float. I wouldn’t rush to the river if it is going to be cold. Sleep in a bit or stop for breakfast. Let the temperature warm up a bit first.

I drove over Grindstone Creek today and it was roaring as I suspect all the small streams in Oswego County are. The water will drop over the next couple days and if we get a day that warms up a bit the fishing should be good on any of them.  Getting on them before they ice up again will be key.

Good Luck

Sandy Pond Ice Fishing Report 1/8/13

Posted in Reports, tagged , , , , , on January 8, 2013| Leave a Comment »

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.

Sandy Pond Ice fishing Report 1/3/13

I just talked to a friend of mine who was out on Sandy Pond on the 1st. He said there was fishable ice at Green Point and he went out a little ways at the Wig Wam but not far enough to want to fish.

He did fish at Green Point for a couple hours and catch a decent amount of fish but nothing big. All the reports I am hearing have been small fish so far.

After last nights cold spell the Wig Wam and Green Point should both be fishable. Hopefully we won’t get the warm up they are calling for and will continue to build ice over the next week.

I have a friend headed to Sackets Harbor on Saturday and will get a report up as soon as I hear from him.
