bassinforlife Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 I was just wondering if anyone fishes in Northern New York and what their favorite waters are. I currently going to school in Potsdam but live near Watertown. Quote

Super User RoLo Posted January 13, 2008 Super User Posted January 13, 2008 Welcome aboard! Watertown Aye...you're surrounded by super bass fishing!! My favorite New York waters were the St Lawrence River (Lake of the Isles and vicinity), Black Lake and Lake Champlain. If you go through Canadian Customs you've got Cranberry Lake, Opinicon Lake, Rideau Lake and Georgian Bay (30,000 Islands) I'm getting homesick :'( Roger Quote

Guest muddy Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 I fished St.Regis river, up by the Canadian border: great smallies and northern pike! I am going back this year and hope to hit Black Lake also. Quote
Super User RoLo Posted January 14, 2008 Super User Posted January 14, 2008 You probably know it muddy, but Black Lake used to give up some large muskies Roger Quote
Guest muddy Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 You probably know it muddy, but Black Lake used to give up some large muskies Roger No, but thanks now i want to go there even more. I have only hooked one Muskie but never boated one YET 8-) Quote

crankbait Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 Lake Ontario and The St Lawerance River(1000 Islands) are awesome....! Quote
Zel Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 Don't know about northern NY but I do like Greenwood in southern NY and Oneida in western NY. And seeing all the Coney Island Whitefish washed up on the beach really put me off any NYC fishing. :-X Quote
Guest muddy Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 Not to mention FLATBUSH FLOUNDER>>>>>>>PAMPERS Quote

riverfisher Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 I'm a little north of the Capital. I mostly fish the Hudson and Mohawk rivers, with frequent trips to lesser known puddles Couple more from the capital area. Round Lake awesome LM fishing in the spring till the weeds completely take it take over. Ballston Lake which was once NYS record holder lake for LMB and Pike back in the day. And if you feel like walking banks you have Schoharie creek AWESOME SMB fishing, hit the large deep pools you can pull out some nice walleye. I personally spend alot of time on the Merky Mohawk I just love fishin that river. Oh yeah if ya just have a row boat and electric trollin motor ya have Collins Lake in Scotia NY there are some monster LMB in there. My uncle a couple years ago caught a 46" Tiger Musky out of there.
