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 18:07:54 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 18:10:20 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 18:13:37 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 18:22:59 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 18:26:32 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.
