ONEIDA LAKE DIEHARDS THREAD 2012

[reeleyz]

  You did those numbers at the Sylvan beach canal DD ?

I would be willing to bet that there was some good action to be had fishing some of the creeks yesterday like Scriba creek. It was like somebody flipped a switch on Wednesday and a pile of fish started to run.

Nice meeting you yesterday Ed, and congrats on the pounding you gave them Reeleyz, what year was it that you went out and didn't get a limit Great job all and a nice end to the season

I have my share of tough days and I usually post them too. This year I got lucky to make the right decisions at the right times, at least most of the time.

  Very Impressive reports fellas!!! I couldn't make it out because of work and family stuff, but I  sent a friend there. He and a buddy  beat em up pretty good for about 3 hours...  FM,  after I manage to get a couple of good Crappie outings under my belt,  maybe we'll hook up and fish drop-backs with the float rod. I've got a couple of new custom colored beads I want to  try out.

Sounds good Tim, I need a good mentor llike you to sharpen my river skills. Looking forward to it.

Hey Drowndindots....you and your buddy look familiar from yesterday morning at the canal. I fished the north side all the way down the end by that little building. Tough bite, but i landed five  keepers from sunup 'til about 10, jigging plastics, kept 3 males and let 2 nice females go. The highlight of my morning was giving a young kid, who played fish hookey and was really trying hard without a bite.... i gave him a pointer and a  plastic i was getting bites on.....then bam! he caught a nice 191/2 incher. He was super happy, and so was his dad. I left there to try and launch my drift boat way west for perch...but the wind kicked upand changed direction so i headed back home. You just gotta love Oneida lake. I'm glad you found the wally's later and hammered them ....good job.....See ya in MAY !!!...choo-choo

Yep, Noticed that myself when i went by yesterday. But im sure the lake is still shallow in spots, and you could find yourself missing a lower unit?

Finally!! do you think they were waiting for walleye season to close  or did they wake up from hibernation 

[filetandrelease]

 just a thought maybe because there is no run off , and it only took them this long to realize there isn't any white stuff on the ground
