Golden Sands Resort Lake George Guests Enjoy Diamond Point, NY Fishing!


Directly in front of Golden Sands Resort, you'll discover Long Island, a popular Bass fishing area, and directly in front of Golden Sands Resort about 100 yards off shore, lies a weedy "drop off" where the big fish gather to scoop up bait fish and small fry as they traverse the shallows and deeper waters of this natural environmental habitat.  Lake George is a naturally spring-fed lake, with warmer waters at the top, and deeper waters to nearly 205 feet deep.  In shallow warmers, you'll find Perch, Bass, Sunfish, Rock Bass, Pickerel, and Bullheads.  In deeper, cooler waters, you'll find landlocked Salmon, Lake Trout, and other sporting and game fish better suited to cooler waters of about 55*.  Salmon tend to swim in schools at this thermal stratum, while Lake Trout tend to remain sedentary during summer months waiting for bait fish to simply swim by for an easy meal! 

Northern Pike and Pickerel can be found in Lake George bays, straights, and weedy areas, and avoid deeper waters. Golden Sands Resort is ideally and centrally located in the Lake George South Basin close to wetland's fishing in Dunham's Bay, Lake George Narrows Islands fishing, and fishing the deeper waters, shoals, and weedy drop-offs and beautiful unspoiled uninhabited Great Northwest Bay of Lake George New York.  The Lake George South Basin and North Basins are separated by a shallow rocky area known as the Lake George Narrows.  These Narrows find their geological origin in the receding of the great North American glaciers of the last Ice Age. The Narrows Islands are an ideal fishing spot for bass, and smaller fish, while deeper underwater caves and coves such as Lake George's "Calfs Pen," serve as an ideal Salmon fishing spot, with deep waters at the shoreline reaching depths of up to 90 feet deep.  Lake George "Calf's Pen," and other similar preferred and popular Lake George fishing areas are accessible only by private boat or Lake George Fishing Charters.

At Golden Sands Resort, we offer free kayaks well suited to go where the fish are our Smith Bay, weedy areas out front, and along the rocky shoreline to nearby Orcutt Bay, where fish are always known to be found.  Nearby Orcutt Bay, easily accessibly by Golden Sands kayaks, is a small bay between Diamond Point and nearby Cannon Point, named for the individual who originally purchased the bay in 1847, John Orcutt.  Orcutt sold the bay to the Village of Lake George for "one peck of corn every year as payment."  

Lake George fishing offers natural outdoor sporting excitment and fun for the entire family!  At Golden Sands Resort on Lake George, you'll enjoy the very best of Lake George fishing, whether from our dock, our free kayaks, or a Lake George Fishing Charter, our friendly office staff will help guide you to the very best of Lake George fishing!
