Where to Meet

  • 275 Lakeside Dr, Mayfield, NY 12117.

    Reets Bayside Marina is a beautiful marina to which Aarons Guide Service has exclusive year-round access. We primarily use this meeting location on our Northern Pike trips as it is near many of the prime locations. Parking is free, and you can go ahead and park on the right side of the road, next to Aaron's grey Toyota Tundra.  Proceed, down to the ice and Aaron and his ATV will be waiting. Again the parking and meeting location is on the right side (lakeside) of the road.

  • 108 Riverside Dr Northville, NY 12134

    Sport Island Pub & Restaurant in Northville, NY has partnered with Aarons Guide Service, allowing us to utilize their parking lot, beach to the ice, and facilities. Please park past the restaurant at the END OF THE ROAD in the empty lot. Once parked, head back up toward the restaurant and you will see a beach gated off by a fence. Captain Aaron will provide you with the gate code before your trip. Once past the gate, head down to the ice where Captain Aaron will be waiting with his ATV.

    The family-owned restaurant and pub is a great place for a cold drink and a delicious bite before or after fishing. tex

What to Expect

Great Sacandaga Lake: A Trophy Northern Pike Trip is not for the faint of heart. We use giant baits and set up many tip ups and wait many hours. Great Sacandaga Lake holds the once-world record, and now United States record Northern PIke. The Pike in Great Sacandaga Lake are of immense size and overall low population, requiring patience and determination. While Captain Aaron Gaza is willing to teach any range of skill and age, those who come out for a trophy Pike ice fishing adventure on Great Sacandaga must must be willing to play the waiting game for a monster Northern Pike. We primarily use tip-ups and rods and reels set on flags with live and dead bait. Northern Pike are very active throughout the winter and there isn’t a real “slow” time for them. Some of the biggest, fattest Northern Pike are caught in during “first ice” in late December and Early January and again during the pre-spawn period of late February & early March. Pike season closes as the ice begins to melt on March 15th.

Trophy Northern Pike Ice Trips

Multi-Species Ice Trips

Middle Saranac Lake & Lewey Lake: Our remote Adirondack ice fishing experience takes us further north where many Pike, bass and perch are caught! While some of the pike are of trophy size we typically have much more action with smaller sized Northern Pike. This is a great experience for all ages looking to catch lots of fish and have a secluded Adirondack adventure. We set up tip ups for Northern Pike and then have everyone with a pole in hand making use of sonar to jig up dozens of perch and sometimes bass!
