CTFishTalk.com: Anybody have tips on Lake Pleasant - Adarondacks, NY - Connecticut Bass Fishing ( CT Bass Fishing ) - A Community Built for Connecticut Fisherman.

My buddy "fishinkik" is driving up right now... Anybody have any tips for the waters up there? I don't know how good LMB fishing is, but i think they will find Smallies and Pike right??? Any tips for that lake would be appreciated.

thanks!

I fish up that way about once a year. I just went last month. I fished the pond next to our cabin only to find out later that there is a closed season on bass until after the spawn. Might explain why I caught so many!

I would fish for bass just like you do down here.

And pike seem to be a lot more common up there. I caight a few fishing for bass. I got one on a texas rigged salamander (in about a foot of water), one on a rapala crank and one on a spoon.

I would recommend spoons, inline spinners and cranks for pike. They get big so dont be afraid to throw big lures. They also will hit it right next to the boat, so always be paying attention.

No smallies in the lake I was fishing.

Do a google search on the Lake Pleasant. I bet you could find a list of species and possibly a contour map.
