Jer Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 After another day of fishing Chemong, we finally got to taste the fruit of our labours. We fished deeper early in the day and couldn't buy a bite. We moved to a couple of shallower spots and got into some fish... ...well Brandon got most of them as you can see above. He was fishing as shallow as 4'. We also managed a few sunfish which was a first for me through the ice. And then this... ...miraculously turned into this... ...for a midnight snack.

Jer Posted January 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Thanks, Lew But I can hardly call it working. Going out to play on Buckhorn shortly, before the rain comes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greencoachdog Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 ... and so the devastation begins... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jer Posted January 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 More devastation on Buckhorn today. We musta caught 20 or 30 perch in a few hours. We let them all go just to keep everybody happy . Fished in about 8' of water with a little bit of weed. A heads up for anyone venturing out on Upper Buckhorn. Be careful, we found some pretty wonky ice out there, 12" and then 30' away, only 4"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way to go Jer... Chase a few of them striped things up this way will ya...it would be nice to feel sumpin' pulling on my string... Shane is probably right...the change in the weather might turn them on...unfortunately it is playing hell with my arthritis and the aches and pains from the last two outings...so I passed on today... Don't get old...it hurts too much... But then again...the alternative ain't so hot either...(or maybe it is... ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Governator Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 (edited) That's a nice feed right there. I fished Barrie marina yesterday morning with little success. Landed 2 10"+ right away and then no bite after that. I had kept them cause it was early, luckily I had some filets in the freezer to add to today's lunch.

cheetah Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Hey, has anyone been onto pigeon at all? specifically the river, I'm down by the Glen, drilled a bunch of holes but can't seem to find any water deeper than 1-2.5 ft. Apparently the channel will be as deep as 9ish ft. in the summer, but with the ice right now @ 14-16 inches and the levels down it's hard to find any depth. i would love to get into atleast 4ft of water for perch. P.S I know chemong is just a few km's down the road, but pigeon is almost at my doorstep....which makes it quite accesible for a quick dodge down to the fishin' hole to get some dinner! Thanks, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Chris I haven't seen anyone fishng the south end of Pigeon until today. I crossed the river at Emily around lunch time and there were a few people drilling some holes just north of the bridge. Whether they caught anything, or how the ice is, I don't know. They had just walked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radnine Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 ...for a midnight snack. You keep eating that for a midnight snack and we won't have to worry about the effects of ice fishing on Chemong for long! Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
