Comment: Fishing near the creek channels is very productive. LAKE GEORGE Hardwater anglers willing to drive to some great fishing are in for a treat this year. Lake George is within range of anglers from South Bend, Elkhart, Angola and Fort Wayne, and it is a lake that is more than worth the trip. "I'd recommend Lake George for northern pike this winter," fisheries biologist Neil Ledet said. "This lake is the best spot for northerns in the northeastern corner of the state. All you need is a tip-up with a minnow or a jig and they'll tear you up." When it's time for lure selection, jigs and jigging spoons complement live minnows well. Choose colors to mimic the lake's yellow perch, golden shiners and smaller pike. Northern pike will take a variety of baits, but matching the hatch is always a good bet. Pike will cruise right under the ice where the dissolved oxygen is concentrated. The hard surface seems to free them of their obsession with cover. Good-sized redears showed up in recent surveys as well, especially on the northern shoreline just to the east of the boat launch. Anglers can expect to see 'gills pushing quality sizes, too, Price said. The lake is best known for its crappies, said Randy Dammarell of Lake George Bait and Tackle. The biggest he's personally seen was a 14-inch fish; of late, though, the bluegill, bass and channel catfish fisheries have been coming on strong.
