In all seriousness, when my vibes start tangling all the time I buy a new one. Seems like they're ok when you get them but after awhile and catching a bunch of fish on them something gets goody and they tangle all the time. I've tried a few fixes and haven't had any luck. Don't usually have as many issues with spoons.

Spoons and pimples don’t tangle that much. For me vibes, even when new tangle a lot...

Firstly, because the people fishing have referenced this website.  Secondly, I will contact law enforcement next time and show them my post as well as your response.

You are welcome show them my response I have no issues with that. I am merely pointing out that folks parking may or, may not be members of this website and the best people to determine the legality of any parking situation is local law enforcement. I’m pretty confident that any law enforcement officer would acknowledge my recommendation as being the right thing to do.

To the points made above, we all must respect property and the law and most do.

Hi All,

Does anyone have any neat tricks for stopping treble hooks on rattle spoons, pimples and vibes getting tangled up with your line when jigging?

Thanks, Andy I'll look them over but I'm not new to ice fishing. Been doing this since I was six months old and I'm 39 now. My pro tip to all the newbes is invest in a float suit and have a bag of dry clothes.

Indian Lake / Indian Lake Fidhing Report - 1/18/2018
« on: January 18, 2018, 05:52:59 AM »
Fishing Indian Lake yesterday from 7:00am to 6:00pm. Ice and weather conditions were good. I fished North Fork until noon and moved 3 times trying to find fish. The water had a little stain but not much. I had 3 marks all morning. Moved to Longview at noon and got a few more marks but, nothing spectacular. Caught a 10” crappie on a silver tungsten and small pink curly tail at 3:30. Thinking that was the start of an evening bite I stayed but didn’t mark much afterwards.....

I talked to a few folks and they had had the same day I had. Seems like the high pressure had moved the fish away....hopefully th3 warm up that’s coming will yield more fish...

Welcome to the site. You might want to look at the “Meet the Pro’s” board on the site. We have pro’s who are familiar with buckeye lake....

I was at Nork Fork and Longview Cove, the water was pretty clear however; the fishing was not good. Very few marks, only caught 1 crappie all day. We had a very high pressure today. Hopefully the warm up will change the bite....

Why do you assume the fisherman you are talking about are ice fish ohio members?


and....if the roads are designated as public roads then folks are free to park wherever they like so long as they are in compliance with the Ohio State Law 454511.69 Parking requirements:

http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/4511.69

If you feel that anyone parking in your neighborhood is in contravention of the law, described above or, any local ordinances then we recommended that you call the Sheriff’s department and let them deal with the specific situation.

Per my fellow members comment you are assuming that folks parking in your neighborhood are members of this website, which may not be the case. You are also assuming that folks are parked illegally which is something we cannot confirm or, deny as we are not local law enforcement.

I highly recommend that you take this matter up with your local law enforcement...

Inventions / 2018 Innovations/Ideas
« on: January 15, 2018, 07:05:00 AM »
Has anyone had any lessons learned/tried new things, got additional needed gear so as a result of being out on the ice. They don’t necessarily need to be inventions, just things to make the ice fishing experience easier. I have a few:

Rubber Mat - getting s small rubber door mat helped keep my feet off the ice and keep them warmer.

Battery Charger - I fished 5 days straight earlier and found that my bait bucket air pump used a few D size batteries. At $4.00 a set the cost of batteries can start to add up so, I got a battery charger and rechargeable batteries. This should will cut the cost of keeping the air pump running.

Air Pump Insulation - The bait bucket I have (Frabill) had pipe runn8ng from the air pump into the bucket. There is a section of pipe exposed which would freeze from time to time. To try and stop this Inhave some polystyrene around it to insulate and prevent freezing. I’ll be testing this later this week.

Does anyone else have anything they have done differently this year?

Andy
