You bet Dave! I’ll have to try different things next time it was pretty cold that day

🎣 can’t wait for first ice!

When the second perch showed up I knew that jumbo was going to suck it down! Awesome footage thanks for sharing 5:24

Some Sweet perch can’t wait to get on the ice , great vid

Ohhhh first Ice vid I've watched!!! Can't wait. Sucks down here in IL we only get like a month of ice sometimes but I can't wait WOOOO

I love it, I can't believe you have ice. I just went in a 10 day hunting trip, Nov 2nd to 12th. one day, it snowed an inch. and the rest of the days it was 38 to 44 degrees. and it's still above freezing here in Alberta. except last night was cold. got a moose 🫎 and 3 deer I'm looking forward to seeing your hunting videos! I'm just watching in order. thanks for the perch fest video. like always, I enjoyed watching!

I have fished the Mississippi the past 2 years and have never used my locator. We fish 5 ft of water. I would also switch to a little bit bigger profile bait. i.e. spoons, bigger jigs, fat raps, jigging raps. I literally let my bait hit bottom, reel up a couple cranks snap it once or twice and wait for them to clobber it. Mississippi is a blast!

@4:45 that was a LEGIT 7 stripe perch lol. Sweet video!

Great video luv perch fishing

Gotta raise it up no bait fish is just going to sit there like eat me please😂

Great stuff man

Cool video buddy, my pops and I are heading out on the water Tuesday to Ashtabula here in North Dakota to get on some walleyes and crappies. Already chompin' at the bit to get some ice here but its going to be a while. Stay safe.

Awesome video

Hey Kyle I have herd that perch are definitely finicky around sonars!!! If I remember right even Jay Siemens in Canada put out a ice video the other day saying the same thing also i believe!! Him and a buddy was out trying to get the masters angler for perch where I believe you have to catch 5 perch with each one being over 13” in length for a master angler!! Or something like that!! I believe he was able to catch two over 13” and his buddy was able to get three or four!! They was definitely on there way to getting there master anglers reward!!!

All good!

Those are beautiful and are the best fish to eat

Bait. Minnow hooked in the head, pinch the tail off, works every time for finicky fish.

Try a dark brown jig & trailer when they refuse the pink & white.

New Subscriber ‼️ Crazy how finicky they were.

Nothing wrong with trying a new hole!

Can't wait to get on the ice. We're almost there just a few weeks to go

For real!

A 17 in 4pound perch came out of Austin Lake on a tip up in portage michigan 10 min from my house 15 years ago

Your so underrated

Enjoy the fishery while it lasts. I just don’t see it holding out for that much longer unfortunately.

I'm sooo bummed. 2 years in a row, NO ICE! NW Ohio

Make sure your jig doesn't spin in circles... most fish will back away. Check for line twist. Fish on buddy

Wow

Wow, you guys must have small perch from where you are from . Here in NY, they look like average perch.

Kyle man do you have patience. I think I would have gotten frustrated watch things just look and leave. There would have been a lot of bleep if it was me. Lol Stay safe this season.

"I'm a same hole kind of guy" 😂

Just a little hint for you. You should rig your plastic better so the whole rig sits horizontal not all side ways like you have it. Or try a rattle bait like a slab rap or something. Great footage though!

Was about to say the same thing around 11 mins the bait looks like crap. Get it straight and 100%horizontal. If I saw my jig on the cam like that it would be up in fixed immediately

God it can be a little colder, temps are scaring me. I’m itching for the ice to hit😅

Nice perch, my biggest perch is 16”. You should use minnows for perch fishing, you’ll catch a lot more.

When you have the camera like that and they are being finicky, try dropping your bait in to the sand move it a just a little let it set, works pretty good some of the time, perch are bottom feeders they root lots of stuff out of the bottom.

Yeah buddy!

Is that anywhere near Treampleau, might get that way soon. How thick is the ice?

Those jumbo jumbos just didn’t want to commit. I usually use a pencil slip bobber. Do pretty good. Don’t have a camera. Don’t know how many I miss. You know you’re a hardcore fisherman when you watch someone else catch fish

love ur videos man, great job! one take away i can give u from my experience as i target perch all winter since i was 5 years old, if their reacting like that on camera u definitely gotta change it up, as noticed guys walking around while u we're talking about the fish on camera. if ur fishing less than 15 feet they hear everything, foot steps talking all the above.

Southeast Wisconsin better have ice this year

Not a good idea eating anything out of Mississippi this year far north by where it starts

Just an observation.... Constant quick jigging sometimes makes them skittish. When they're lethargic slow everything down. Subtle slow movement or no movement can be the ticket.

Can you tell me what type of guides are used on the fox river ice rods?

@denniscrane9753

8 ай бұрын

Dynaflow striper with stainless steel rings! The guides are also oversized to reduce ice buildup!

You would add all of them fish

You should have put a Perch eye on the Hook

R u a new fisherman? If u place your hand over the gills, their mouth opens. Its like a magic trick.

I live in shawano county I can't wait for first ice. I'm homeless and live out of my car so the lake is become my address this winter

only a wisconsin fisherman would think catching a perch is a great thing. from the people who put all their brains together and gave us 'go pack go'. haha just messin' with you. (not really) thanks for clearing out the nuisance fish!

Seems like welfare fishing 🎣 to me. I am he who walks on water, I'm a Minnesota ice fisherman. ⚠️😎

Maybe if you didn't go fishing everyday there would be fish for other people to catch.

Why don't you kill the fish when you decide to keep them? Why let them die by themselves?

@bobsaul4568

8 ай бұрын

The fish don’t tend to complain about it too much. They should speak up

Would not have caught that fish without that camera helping you! If You do they should be released.

Something wrong with your bait/presentation the way they come in and then leave it alone. Don't keep fishing with it the same old way. Change the way it sits on the hook, change jig color or type. Try spitting on your bait to change the smell. Those fish should all be biting. They're not just being finicky. Something's wrong. Fix it if you want to catch fish.

@dylonpress7034

You are jigging to much try less movement and hitting bottom more.
