Default Best Day on Ice 2015 - video Pike, Walleye, Burbot

Video Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZiy...ature=youtu.be



Walleye, Northern Pike, Burbot made up one of the best ice fishing days we've experienced Ice Fishing Alberta. We were fishing a drop off and the fish were thick, intense and very hungry. They were hitting soft body swim baits, slender spoons and large herring on tip ups. It was great to have the MarCum as I feel it helped me hook up on a lot more fish anticipating the bites. I also show a couple tips on how to lose less lures when fishing for big fish and how to rig a large bait on a tip up. Hope you enjoy the show. This is as high octane as ice fishing below - 25 degrees Celcius gets! Adrenaline rush ice fishing outdoors, haha Whoever knew it existed?

Brandon

Love your videos Brandon

A question on your leader....are you tying the 80# with a knot or using a crimping system?

So don't use a crimp! I first made a bunch with crimps and the line will pull out or break over with the pike doing their death rolls. So I just tie the swivel and snap on the ends. Trim the end to a cm long and then use a lighter to heat the tag end and it will Form a small ball that won't pull out.

Yeah I get the slender spoons online from cabelas. They don't have them in alberta anywhere I've looked. Even the cabelas in edmonton didn't have them when I was there. You could probably get free shipment to store though.
