What people run and fish for in Lake George
Lake trout, landlocked salmon, bass and watersports. Pontoons and wake boats are common.
The water around Lake George
The lake runs north from Lake George Village to Ticonderoga, where it drains into Lake Champlain through the La Chute River. The Narrows, in the middle of the lake, are full of islands. Bolton Landing and Hague are lakeside towns.
Lake George has strict boating rules, including inspection requirements for boats to prevent invasive species. Many state islands have campsites that are accessible only by boat. The boating season runs from late spring to early fall. Lake George Village, at the south end, is the busiest area, with marinas, tour boats and the steamboats that cruise the lake.
Recommended setups
Pontoon boats
A pontoon spends more time idling and anchored than running, so the engine has little chance to recharge the battery. Plugging in a charger after every trip, or switching to lithium with its faster charge acceptance, keeps a pontoon ready for the next evening cruise around the The Narrows.
Ski boats and wake boats
For ski boats on the The Narrows, choose a high-CCA AGM cranking battery and add a house battery for the stereo.
Bass boats
For tournament anglers fishing the The Narrows, battery choice comes down to runtime and weight. A 36V lithium battery replaces three heavy lead-acid batteries, and a dedicated 12V lithium for electronics keeps sonar screens bright all day. Don’t forget the charger: lithium batteries need a charger with a lithium profile.
Seasons and storage
The lake freezes in winter. Store batteries properly.
The lake season is short and busy. Test batteries in spring before launch.
Northeast lakes freeze in winter, and boats come out in fall. Before storage, charge batteries fully and remove them or keep them on a maintenance charger. Standard lithium should not be charged below freezing.
Freight and delivery to NY
- Free lithium freight: lithium batteries over $150 ship free, curbside, to the lower 48.
- Parts and chargers: free shipping when your cart subtotal is $150 or more.
- Lead-acid and AGM: free curbside truck freight to the lower 48, the same as lithium.
- Curbside means the driver brings the shipment to the end of the truck at your curb or driveway.
- Inside delivery, or hard-to-reach spots like marinas with restricted access, may cost extra, so a home or business address is usually best.

Questions from New York boaters
Do I need a heated lithium battery for Lake George?
Only if you plan to charge in freezing weather. Standard lithium batteries should not be charged below 32°F. Batteries with internal heating, like several EPOCH models and the Dakota Lithium DL+ 135Ah, warm themselves before charging. For normal spring-to-fall use with winter storage, a standard lithium battery is fine.
Do you have a store or installer in Lake George?
No. We ship to Lake George from our store. Professional installation is a flat $99 per battery ($249 for a 24V or 36V lithium bank) anywhere from Venice to Gainesville, with no travel charge.
Do chargers and accessories ship free?
Chargers, accessories and lithium batteries of $150 or less ship free when your cart subtotal is $150 or more. Otherwise a flat shipping rate applies, shown at checkout.
Can you ship to my marina?
We can ship to most addresses, but marinas with restricted access or no way to receive freight may cost extra or need special arrangements. A home or business address is usually easiest. Contact us before you order if you want to ship to a marina.
