  • Lots of ice

    took the afternoon and headed to Tuckahoe to try my hand at some pickerel fishing.
    Too lazy to load the sink but turned out to be a wise choice as half the lake was frozen over.
    I'ver been there several times over the years and have rarely seen the entire dam covered and flowing. Had I taken the yak I may have been tempted to run the dam
    fished below the dam and got a surprise 15" brown trout ( prime candidate for a Masgouf Dinner this weekend). Another angler walked out of the woods w/ 5 nice rainbows.
    The small bridge on the launch side produced an 18" pickerel.
    Crappie where not interested ibn my bullheads.
    As the sun set I was treated to a Honking symphony as several gaggles of geese circled the lake.

    I fished there last feb for trout and caught a few rainbows, I didn't know there were any browns. Did they recently stock the stream?

        Nice going Zimm. That's a great surprise! I wish VA did more trout stocking in my area. Most of it is West and South of me.

        Enjoy your Masgouf trout!
