ONEIDA LAKE DIEHARDS THREAD...

[ol crawdad]

Very cool on the youngster winning the derby!  I haven't posted anything on here in a while, I haven't fished as much as I would like this spring but I have had a couple good outings this Spring.  Cheeks and I did well on the Perch one day. I got my cousin and his son out for Browns and I was able to put my little cousin on a brown...I didn't make it out for the Walleye opener, I got called into work but I braved the rain and wind yesterday and managed 2 Pike, 2 chunky Smallies and 5 Lake Ontario eyes.  7 of the 9 fish came on my hand painted lures...I never found the big hogs but I did manage to bring home a limit of nice eaters. The biggest was 22"...cold nasty weather is always better when you can find fish.  I read back a bit, great reports and stories.  The flooding is out of control, so many businesses and homes/camps are in trouble...A few pics from Spring of 2017 with UNCURSED passengers...

Great looking fish, love the kid pic!  Tough looking conditions, was going to go there, glad I stayed south of Oneida.

nice job out there guys. I post the good with the bad. My weekend was extremely rough... Saturday didn't make it out til 830 am or so and managed 4 eyes with the biggest being 18. all of my fish came deep 25-28 FOW, then Sunday got the big ole goose egg on the eyes but managed a few perch to salvage the trip before being blown off the east end..... oh well that's fishing back at it this week sorry for the lack of pictures this time my phone was a little waterlogged from the weekend.. tight lines guys

Good report and nice pictures. I don't miss the call ins to work. Sold the tracker to my nephew and picked up a new 2016 Lund Fury 1625 tiller. 50hp Merc CT, big tiller handle, HB Helix 7...etc. Haven't fished it yet but did shake down last Thursday. I like it. Should get some fish in later this week....h2l

Lets see some pics of the new ride!  Sounds like a perfect fishing machine!

Did the water level take a big jump up?  Hearing it's up a foot since the weekend.

Does anyone know on here know if the new access launch site to Sandy Pond is accessible with the high water/rain?  We are looking to go on Thursday and didn't want to make the long trip for nothing.  Thanks, FF

It was up when I left Monday. Had to raise the dock as the NW wind had waves crashing over the dock.
