Icing Catfish

[SkunkedAgain]

Okay so you guys got me on youtube for my lunchtime, they make it look simple to catch cats through the ice, going to have to try some of the stuff they use and see if i can get it to work for me... Too bad we can't use the live minnows that some of them are using... They make it look really fun... Hope i can figure out the trick to local kitties through the ice... Thanks so much for the tips and recommendations... I'll report back... Later Jeff

Willard Bay: Silver Rattle Trap, no bait required, may help though.

Newton: Perch Jigging Rap.

Watch for the suspended fish

Thanks Richard, I just don’t follow through very well. I had good intentions to try something new tonight, and I did on one rod, but I kept using my tungsten bead on my jigging rod. Didn’t catch a thing until the squall hit and then I got an 11” bass on the bead and crawler. Wind was too wild and was blowing my gear all over so I had to quit after a half hour of watching more and more fish show up. But it was blowing so hard I couldn’t tell if I was getting a bite or not, plus my holes kept filling with snow. So I’ll have to try again. Thank you for the recommendation, I’ll try harder next time. Later Jeff
