Hi Everyone!
So I normally dont Ice fish that much, but I wanted to try to this year. Up here near Coeur D' Alene we have a lake called Fernan, and its got about a foot of ice on it now. I went up there one day, and one guy 20 feet away from me was catching rainbow trout like crazy, I try the exact same thing, I dont get a single bite. I have 2 polar tip ups with a weight and hook and half a night crawler, and an ice fishing pole with a flasher and hook and night crawler. I dont know what I am doing wrong. Maybe I am moving the bait too much. Any advice on how I could do better? any lure or bait recommendations?
Thanks!
