I have one in the UV orange tiger color, really like them but the suckers are expensive and add up quick if you start a real large selection of sizes and colors

Did you do the fine detailing on it yourself? I've only seen them in plain red/chrome without any pattern on it

I've fished 6 lakes this year and I've gotten one bluegill total which was in a tiny private pond that's filled with them , what am I doing wrong? Bluegill and crappie are delicious but I can't seem to catch any through the ice, I've tried deep, shallow, weed beds, submerged wood structure, Multiple teardrops and other jigs, is there certain colors I should be dropping that are known bluegill killers? and what parts of the body of water should I look for to set up on?

Kinda bored with fishing for stocked trout, looking for more species, pike and pickerel have been a newer interest to me lately, anyone have tips and advice for getting them on a rod? not super into tip ups unless I'm fishing for table fish lol, not sure were to to after these. I'm located in medina and can go maybe 45 minutes at the farthest

I almost exclusively hold my ice rods like that, most comfortable and sensitive I've found as well as being the easiest way to maintain the most control on the action and presentation of the lure in my opinion
Any tips on targeting pickerel in specific? I'm tired of catching trout and bass, And I seem to suck at bluegill ice fishing

Where can I get those small clips to tie on lines so I don't gotta retie all the time?

if anyone can give me a report on these lakes that would be awesome, wanna head up to one around 1:30 but I'm afraid the water will be badly stained

Some of Plastic/epoxy ones are a little rough on the edges but for the price it's nothing that would keep me from ordering more, the lead/soldered ones are all spot on though. Great product

This never gets old! You train yourself, you've done the math, you spudded your way out. Drill the first hole and a little crack or a boom and you pucker right up.
Your tellin me, we always spud out and listen and feel as we go, drilled the holes sat on the buckets and heard the ice roar, and marched our happy asses right to shore with our hearts in our throats it felt haha

First year ice fishing, went on lake medina for a change, had 7 inches of ice and it was pretty clear. walked Around the shoreline to get to the spot we wanted and it started making this hallow doinking noises, we drilled four holes about ten feet apart from the two of us, the sounds seemed to become more frequent and being inexperienced, we got off the ice in a hurry. Is this something we should be concerned about next time we are out? it really freaked us out since we have never heard ice do that on any of the other lakes we've been on
