great east lake

[CSpike]

Anyone fish great east lake lately? I fished it years ago, remember a good ramp but don't remember much else so it is likely I didn't do to well. Supposed to have salmon and lake trout and rainbows. Wondering how they run there size wise. Anyone?

lakers, rainbow and browns--they haven't dumped any salmon for a while.  Very nice pop of bass and pickeral as well.

most of the lakers are around 18-20 inches and skinny, have seen some decent rainbows there.

hey spike.......yeh the ramp is real nice and plenty of parking.......the bass fishing is quite good there........can be real busy on the weekends.......there are more camps on that lake then any place in nh it seems.......good luck

If your in that area and have time give Horn Pond a try, both ME. and NH stock it. We were up there a few weeks ago.

They still have a interest in the Pond , but as of 1988 NH took over the management of it. Prior to that Maine and NH both did stocking there with LLS, and the entire trout strain, now I think all they but in there are Bows, Brooke's and Browns, with 200 acres and around 4,000 fish each year will give a nice return.
I do not get there that often but I think there a lot of pressure on the pond.

use to be good for bows but way too many people fishing it the past couple years only been on the lake a couple times this year

That's what I have heard about the fishing pressure, I'll stick with the remotes and out of the way places....Thanks for the info

Good Launch! thats about it  I dont know how it is right now but last year it was good for lakers.
