    Ice fishing hookups?

    Just throwing it out there - if anyone is ever looking for an extra man to bring fishing feel free to message me! I can drive or pitch for gas. I have all the gear needed or I can just bring the bare minimum if you do too. Only thing I don't have is a flasher/finder! I know spots in the...

    Huntsville area ice conditions

    Neither, I have scouts in the area lol, my Dads whole side of the family lives up there. I was only up there for 3 days. Spent the first day trying for walleye but getting nothing but perch and the next 2 days on the home lake for lakers. Few nice ones for the freezer. I think next trip will be...

    Huntsville area ice conditions

    We had 4 inches of black ice and 3 inches of brackish above that on quite a few lakes in the Haliburton area. Ended up starting the season off with a bang - 4 lakers 2 days Also finn there is almost 6 inches of black ice on that lake I told you about, just an FYI :D

    Looking for a new boat up to 10'8 long with a bit of wiggle room

    I got mine on kijiji - 375 used and in mostly great condition - there was a small crack on the rim on one corner, purely cosmetic damage You can get the 8 foot for sure from west marine in Oakville - when I was looking they were 499.99 plus tax If you go to academy in NY you can get it for...

    Ice Conditions....

    I'll be heading to the Haliburton area in 6 days - I am hoping for 6" on the main lake but I'll have a backup plan in case not. I'll be waiting to hear from some of the more experienced guys around here and other sources before I try anything "local" - being that this will be my inaugural...

    Recommendations ice rods, tip ups and line

    2 of the tipups I got came with what looks like some super thick braid. So thick I'm not even convinced it is fishing line. It does kind of look like the Dacron line you mention but then again I am a total rookie when it comes to tipups so maybe not. I think for one I'll leave it and add a mono...

    Looking for a new boat up to 10'8 long with a bit of wiggle room

    I didn't even notice you said 102, just assumed you referred to the 120 - the pimped out one. The 102 is in my opinion not worth it. The bass raider would fit lying down the 102 would be diagonal if it fits. They are the same length. The 102 is pretty much only good for 1 person or 1 person and...

    Looking for a new boat up to 10'8 long with a bit of wiggle room

    My opinion - Buy a Pelican Bass Raider 10e!!! It is 10 foot 2 and 48 inches wide - It would fit in the back of your van and let you close the doors - Rated for 600 lbs, motor mount on the front and back and it is only 145 pounds! I own one and love it, suits the purpose you need it for...

    Recommendations ice rods, tip ups and line

    Hi all, As the title implies I'm looking for recommendations on ice rods, tip ups and ice fishing line. Few questions below... Feel free to chime in with answers or more questions. Trying to get my learn on as best I can before the ice thickens... 1. Fishing for pike, through the ice is 100%...

    "New" to ice fishing

    Thank you sir! I had sporadically watched a couple of your videos before but never really saw the depth of your channel until recently. I am seriously loving your old centerpin videos. You've given me at least 3-4 weeks worth of viewing content. I dedicate an eighth of my screen to watching...

    "New" to ice fishing

    Crap, must have sold in the last couple days. I was showing my brother on Saturday and it was still listed online - It was the older model of the trekker 2 man flip with the sled attached and everything. Looks like only the new model is listed now, basically the same thing but over twice the...

    Ya it certainly is - My cheapness was further evidenced by the 20 dollar extra discount I demanded because the box was torn up in 2 places. Lol sometime I don't know when to quit, sometimes it works. If anyone is interested in either the Oakville Kerr street CT still has the exact auger eskimo...

    Yup - I am well aware of the limits, rules and regulations of live bait. Live I usually only keep 6 dozen on hand at all times but I have 96 in the freezer now - if I get over 120 I give them to my brother, sister, mum, dad... well you got the point. My whole family is licensed. I'm willing to...

    "New" to ice fishing

    Ya that's no prob - I'll always find someone to go, even if I have to pay someone :) Nah in all seriousness, I wanted to be prepared for more people rather than less. I grew up ice fishing in no hut in the middle of blizzards in haliburton so I'll even be good with none when I'm solo. I'm a deal...

    "New" to ice fishing

    All for it!! I'll definitely be sending you a pm in the near future - I don't have much input on spots... yet, but I have experience targeting lakers, splake, bows and specks through the ice. I just need a sled - will buy used - can't justify to myself even a sale price on a new pelican sled -...

    WELLL... correct me if you're wrong but you're a rapala lady? you may be the best judge (if not a little biased lol) of the one I literally just picked up on my lunch break. Ink on the receipt is still wet... the 6 man proselect - from crappy tire - is an older model but a brand new 6 man for...
