| Pictured here is Allison Wagner and Brian Brodman of Queens, NY. Brian is holding a feisty smallmouth bass that they caught while fishing on Lake George in August 2003. This smallmouth bass was taken on a minnow while fishing from a boat. They also caught rock bass and sunfish on this exciting summer trip to beautiful Lake George. |

Lake George is located approximately 50 miles north of Albany, NY. in the Adirondack Mountains. The lake is 32 miles in length, and has a maximum depth of around 200 feet. The lake is 1 to 3 miles wide in places and has close to 200 islands of various sizes. Lake George provides fishing opportunities for the following species of fish. Lake trout, landlocked salmon, an occasional rainbow trout, northern pike, largemouth and smallmouth bass and a variety of panfish. The natural bait on Lake George is comprised of smelt and ciscoes. At one point Lake George held the N.Y. state record for Landlocked Atlantic Salmon at 19 pounds. But that record is now held by Mike Dandino who caught an Atlantic Salmon of 24 pounds and 15 ounces on April 5, 1997 from Lake Ontario. |
