Great Sacandaga 2021

First, I stay off the lake on weekends. Usually on the lake by 7am. Once the fish get into their summer locations, I seem to catch most of my fish during the day. That could be just the way I fish! I trolled spinners for a few years and caught fish but I have caught a lot of fish jigging. I don't keep any fish and I do feel that jigging is much better for the fish. It is very rare when I walleye takes a jig deep....h2l

I'm with h2l no weekends, I like to go out about 7 am and fish till noon. Most of my fishing is spinners but would like to try jigging.

That is a good start to your season. The dam is a good 1 hour run for me, too "dam" far. You must have seen all the BIG boats on Sat....h2l

Pete. nice seeing you on the lake. 5 walleyes, 1 rock bass and a 12" perch. Water temp 72*. Two of the walleyes were keepers. Did better on the Northville end of the lake. Wind changed from the South to the West and the bite seemed to pick up, but I had had enough for one day. I MUST be getting old...h2l

GOOD LUCK, Iceman!

Hunts, Great seeing you out there and thanks so much for the mini teaching lesson on spots.

[hunts2long]

Spend some time in that area and you will catch some fish...h2l

Fished yesterday with my cousin, we caught three walleyes, one was a keeper, also caught a small pike. Bass were jumping all over.

[Raquettedacker]

Sure that were  bass and not carp?
 Carp are still spawning and the juveniles do a lot of jumping..

Iceman, it was a nice morning to be on the lake. Way to go!
Raq, I have seen a few carp coming out of the water at the house. They just sort of come out the water and fall back in....h2l

[iceman260]

Raq never gave carp a thought, you could be right. It was a nice morning to be out.
