Here is the remainder of the Chat.


2012-01-11 18:05:14   Mitchell   Overall, I like chubs the best.  I know this sounds crazy but I like the salted shiners better than live shiners just for tipping spoons, swimbaits.  I like the durability and action of chubs when using tip ups.
2012-01-11 18:05:26   Mitchell   walleye is five per day, perch is twenty
2012-01-11 18:05:51   g   any slot limits on eyes

2012-01-11 18:07:34   lowellhturner   question
2012-01-11 18:07:42   freakofnature13   do you have any tips when using a camera in packs of perch to get the jumbos to get it before the lil ones i have a hard time gettin it to the jumbo  before the lil ones attack.. playin keep away :)
2012-01-11 18:07:54   davidhoheisel   go ahead after answer thanks
2012-01-11 18:09:06   Mitchell   Try up sizing to a larger lure or fihing with a heavy jig that you can poke to the bigger fish, use a single hook and bend out the hook so you can shake small fish off by just pulling slowly.
2012-01-11 18:09:28   freakofnature13   thank you
2012-01-11 18:09:37   davidhoheisel   lowell
2012-01-11 18:09:58   lowellhturner   #1 do you use stinger hooks with chubs  and @ where do you find bigger perch?
2012-01-11 18:10:20   davidhoheisel   who is next
2012-01-11 18:10:44   1977walleyeguy   how much did they pay you to sing the perch patrol song on camera?  lol
2012-01-11 18:11:03   Russ   good evening guys
2012-01-11 18:11:10   Mitchell   I dont use stingers much when ice fishing but do use quick strike rigs that have two trebles once in a while.  I have found some really big perch on deep basins and have also found some in some newer backwater areas, big perch live where they can live long enough to grow big.
2012-01-11 18:11:43   davidhoheisel   hey Russ thanks for joining us. If you have a question for jason just say question and i will put them in order.
2012-01-11 18:11:55   Mitchell   Ha, I dont know what I was thinking when we did that duet, I have no rythm... they called me the tin man at my wedding because I dont know how to dance

2012-01-11 18:13:17   davidhoheisel   snowcone your up
2012-01-11 18:13:37   Mitchell   I do use dropper rigs alot, I like to use a Hali Chain or tie about six inches of mono to a small jig experimentingwith both horizontal and vertical jigs
2012-01-11 18:14:01   snowcone   do you think water quality in ohio keeps our perch from getting large
2012-01-11 18:14:05   g   what pound mono do you use
2012-01-11 18:14:07   Mitchell   I like to use them below a buck shot rattle spoon as they drop fast and straight
2012-01-11 18:14:15   Mitchell   usually, six pound

2012-01-11 18:16:57   1977walleyeguy   question
2012-01-11 18:17:02   Mitchell   I used Berkley Sensation and XL for years but I helped Northland develop their Bionic Ice Line and it is good stuff.
2012-01-11 18:17:19   davidhoheisel   waleye up
2012-01-11 18:17:28   Mitchell   We have looked at it but our concern was threading it on a frozen lake with the wind blowing and also ice up issues.
2012-01-11 18:17:49   snowcone   ?????
2012-01-11 18:17:53   Mitchell   We know guys use the long rods in your area

2012-01-11 18:22:59   Mitchell   They dont stay on the hook at all and are really delicate... I have tried several times but they are great forage, lousy bait.

2012-01-11 18:26:17   snowcone   just one more
2012-01-11 18:26:28   davidhoheisel   ok after hardwater
2012-01-11 18:26:32   HardWaterJunkie   Do you use fly reels at all for panfish? also have you thought of producing a fly reel ice rod combo?
2012-01-11 18:27:10   fire_line   ?
2012-01-11 18:27:26   snowcone   where can i find a new video of you fishin on ice ?
2012-01-11 18:27:34   Mitchell   We do use fly reels at times but prefer the plastic schooley reels as they are cheaper and lighter, we have had a prototype for about four years but didnt think it would be mainstream enough.
2012-01-11 18:27:57   fire_line   are you guys driving trucks on DL now?
2012-01-11 18:28:01   Mitchell   Go to our website, www.jasonmitchelloutdoors.com for some streaming video.

Excellent video and you make it look so easy. Cant wait to see part 2 and it might just give me enough courage to try a 4x4 oblique stack again without lifting the pads.
