I guess the south end will remain unknown territory for me. Thank you town of Urbana and New York State.

Good news - launch is good. Bad news- fishing was bad.
-
I did see boats entering the lake from the channel on Saturday. I would assume they launched at the ramp. I will know for sure tomorrow and leave feedback.

Honeoye is up in the mid 40’s. About time.

Wow, that would be great. Hope someone has some recent updates.

Who fishes. I just drive around lakes taking temps for you guys Honestly,fishing for lakers is very good, fishing for panfish is very bad.

39 deg the entire length of the west branch on Keuka Lake yesterday. The east branch was the same 39 but the temp warmed up to a whopping 40.5 deg at the pump house at 2:00.

It seems to me that you are drifting too fast. Get a minn kota and spot lock or if you don’t have spot lock, I used to keep a smaller minn kota in reverse heading up current. As far as jigging goes, 1 oz. round jig, white plastic, braided line, fleurocarbon leader.

I use the dragonfly 5 and Jig lakers in Keuka. You can easily see the lakers and jig on it. I bought the 5" screen because I have a smaller 16.5' boat. The good, the Navionics or C chip is included in the price. Your choice. The bad, The transducer looks like a giant bird beak back there and I am in constant fear of breaking it off when launching or retrieving. I have just replaced the bracket holding it on. but got it for free from raytheon. It was a $20 part if I had to pay.

No, I crossed the lake w/o a problem in the morn,spudding all the way. Met up with a couple friends that showed up later on the west side and hitched a car ride back to my car at Standpipe. Worth it. Scored a nice parking spot on west side. friends are on Oneida now. Over a foot of good ice. They walked out from Sylvan beach. Nothing but pins so far

Thats crazy, I did the drive around too. Did not want to be the only one out on Conesus and checked Silver. The ice at Silver looked like it was going fast so I did not stay that long. Lots of small perch in Silver, but they seem to have grown up since last winter. They are averaging 8 1/2", last year 7" tops. Next year might be good.

Fat Lady is getting up to the stage. Think I will get the boat out of storage soon.

Ditto on the G flex. Costs about $35-40. I tried fiberglassing, flex seal, and patches with epoxy that all failed. I have not used the G flex on the sled yet but Three years ago, I sealed a very leaky 14' aluminum boat with it. Even filled a 5" crack below the waterline. Sealed all the rivets and seems. Stopped the leaks and did not peal off. Very impressive to hold through all the pounding on the trailer and water. You need a heat gun to apply it and don't get it on your hands. Wear the latex gloves that come with the kit.

I am just waiting to see what happens. The bass population last year was great. The perch were a little harder to come buy but we started fishing for them well after the spawn. Gills and big sunfish were all over the place as well as rock bass. And do I have to mention the ever present pickerel. Just how the laker/ alewife population effects the other species is yet to be determined

I was wondering about this. I hardly ever use a heater when I fish alone and feel fine, but when I fish with one of my friends in the same hut, he has the heater on full bore and I wind up with a headache. I'll spend more time outside the tent and see if it makes a difference.

You ever notice why I give all my fish away to you. I was eating fish from Cranbo and Honeoye for years, and now look at me. Need I say more
