I've received a couple of emails about winter fishing on the Lackawaxen. I don't recommend it. Not because the fishing isn't good. I wouldn't know. But the wading or more to the point getting to the water is so difficult and even dangerous. The water should be a good temperature coming from the bottom of the lake and all. It's just that there's just too much of it. I haven't been around a lot this winter but when I have been the water has been high. Real High. Also a lot of shore ice. To me trout fishing should be a pleasure and not a chore so I'll wait until April, even late in April, to start my fishing in the Lackawaxen.
There have been several times when Zane Gray Pool has a lot of Gulls and a few Eagles. A good omen for this season's fishing.
