President's Weekend on Oneida Lake

[ScowardNJ]

Took what’s turning out to be an annual Presidents Weekend trip up to Oneida. We got an awesome cabin right on the north shore with a great crew of ice anglers. Walked 40 feet out the back door onto one of the most productive walleye and perch fisheries in the north east. All of the drops were within a mile walking distance from the house. Fishing was good with flurries of perch (some jumbos) and walleyes from sun rise to sun set. Most of the wallys were on the small side but we managed to put a few keepers on the ice. I lost count on the amount of eye’s caught on Sunday. My buddy’s first fish outta the lake was the only burbot we saw all weekend, very cool fish. Oneida is a great place to ice fish and definitely worth the trip up with a crew. Of course we ate and drank like kings the whole time. Looking forward to getting back up there.
