Just back from annual winter fishing trip. Temps. were in the teens each morning and so I did not launch boat. Friday afternoon the temp. rose above freezing but the wind kicked up a little too. So we only fished from off houseboat. We averaged about 10 stripers each per day. Also landed a walleye, a largemouth and 3 or 4 catfish. All on anchovies. Tried spoons with no success even though a few of the fish had shad in them. About a quarter of the fish were a little skinny but the rest had good fillets. The fillet work was mighty cold on the fingers. Largest fish was maybe 4 lbs.
We did not see any other anglers or any boaters. Did see one ranger in uniform working. Did notice some Aramark employees working. The snow never completely melted. Water temp. 47.
