Just found this thread.  I was in the Adirondacks region around Lake Pleasant over the 4th and enjoyed several days of small mouth, rock bass, and red breasted blue gills.  My son nabbed a small stocker trout but not worth eating this time.  Nothing over 4 LBS, but every day delivered using spoons and plastics. Heading back in August and will try some new things to get to the lunkers who seem to be a bit cagey.  There are lakers up there as well as walleye, but I have never targeted them.
