where the heck is Lake Tanglefoot? I can not find it on any maps...

isn't bass season closed untill June???

[CarogaKid]

Lake Tanglefoot is in the heart of the Adirondack Mountains.... It's a long hike, but just follow the rocks to the big pine tree, and then take a left...But don't go past the maple tree, If you see a fallen Oak tree you went to far.. ...Bass season is closed, we were fishing for trout...But the bass were the only thing biting..(they were all released unharmed) That lake should be on the map somewhere...

Made it out to good old lake tangle foot this afternoon, and stayed through the night..


Here's we are toasting Lake tangle foot...With our very own Tangle foot Moon shine..





Fishin was slow.. In the daylight hours but we made good use of our time..





After fishin till dark, We went and got some supper, and made a few stops at the local tavern... Made it out to tangle foot island around 11pm and tried for some bullheads..While waiting for the walleye season to open...

Trout Bum with a water dog....




Finally a bull head




After losing track of time we seen that it was finally Walleye season.. And we were already 15 mins behind schedule... So we switched over to some big shiners and gave it ago.. The walleyes started hammerin hard.. And some drunk guy left the camera on and the batteries went dead.. So that was it for the pictures...

But dont worry I took some pics when I got Home with My girlfriends Camera..

And here's the end results...








We caught our limit(well what I thought was our limit) 3 a piece in a little over an hour and lost a bunch more that cut our lines...But after coming home and readin the regs I guess we could have kept 5 a piece.. Oh well theirs always tomorrow night.. Right troutbum??

[troutbum]

What a great night ..... we may have  caught more if we had more bait too.... I love those days when they are hitting so well ya run out!

maybe tonite I will  grab an extra couple dozen CarogaKid

If the wife lets me out again heh

I will tell ya what I was not impressed with the Vanish Flourocarbon last nite... I dont know how many fish we lost at shore... making a trip to the sports shop today to pick up more line and some new hooks


Does anyone use steel leaders for the eyes?

[CarogaKid]

That vanish worked good in the winter for lakers and pike.. And for some reason a 2 pound fish can snap the line when you lift them up over the rocks... I was impressed with it over the winter but when you got a 2 pound fish snapping 10lb line..somethins gotta be wrong..
