2026 Bantam Lake Spring Camping
Another year has gone by and the 2026 Spring Camping / Fishing (??) is just 2 weeks away. Unfortunately, the New York Rangers are out of the playoffs this year (AGAIN) but we should have an interesting matchup between the Yankees and Mets starting on May 16th. The events schedule is updated!!! Unless a miracle occurs, I don’t see anyone catching 32 lbs. 2 oz from the shore so the world’s record at Bantam Lake will live on with Big Daddy Grip, the only member in the 13 lb. Northern Pike club. In lieu of fishing we will feature a major Corn hole tournament and bird watch guided tour sponsored by the self-serving morons on the White Memorial Board of Directors that ruined the Bantam lake Camping / Fishing experience enjoyed by hundreds of happy campers over the years by instituting new rules to discriminate against fisherman and mobile home users that have graced the campground and paid the salaries to keep the site open. See you in 2 weeks
2025 Fall fishing /Camping
Records are made to be broken and this year that were totally smashed. Big Daddy Grip set the tone early with a 13.7 record Northern pike only to top it the follwing day with a 13.11 pike. Also broken was the 3 fish total weight of 23.9 set in 2006 by big Daddy Grip with a new record catch 32 pounds 2 ounces . John B. aslo caught a monster pike of 11.5.
2025 Spring Winner
Big Daddy Grip is the new 2025 Spring Champion, dethroning Tommy K and avoiding an unpresidented three-peat. Kenny takes the lunker.
2024 Spring Winner
12.2 lb Northern Pike
2024 Rockwood HW277 Camper
Does anyone recognize this person?
What will be the Beer of choice for Tommy K?
Attention fellow fisherman: With only 15 days remaining before the Spring blowout, Tom will need help deciding on the cheapest yet potent beer he can buy. In addition, it needs to be completely offensive to everyone, especially Big Daddy Grip,  so that no one...
CROTON FALLS 4-22/11
First time out fishing this year, 4 Bass to 3 lbs.
Just one month to go….
We are closing in on spring fishing with just thirty day to go. Start getting the equipment out of storage and dusted off. Think about those new lures and strategies.  This spring we are going to have  a new champion.
Minnow Results
The results of the Minnows vote is that we will buy minnows for ONE day and use them until they are gone. I've taken the poll down to prevent Tom from entering a new vote every week.
Big Party at Toms House
