Dude no way that's so cool!! Where abouts was that?
North of Nakina Ontario
@GalensFishing nice! did you go through twin lakes outpost camps?
@@tiredredneck8159 leunenbergers
Pov hatchet
Did you report it? You never know if theres a corpse in it
Talked to some local guides 4 planes have gone down in the lake over 50 plus years. Some dead. Some not All bodies recovered
That looks like a car no?
It does look like a car. But it was clearly visible were the prop and front end would have been etc also we found pieces. This was very remote no roads or vehicles have ever been anywhere near this lake lol . We flew a bush plane 50 min to get to the lake from Nakina Ontario
I know what airplane that is
You know were it is ? Or what make lol 😂 More info
It’s a really sad story my friends family were in a plane for I evening plane ride when the engine failed and crashed the dog was unfortunately still on the plane and the dad tried to rescue the dog but ended up losing his life as well. It was absolutely tragic and that is the plane that I could tell from the video.
This was north of Nakina Ontario Sorry to hear that’s terribly sad story. Same area ?
I am in Haliburton on the 5 lake chain and have not caught a X#$%I thing. Now you are showing this steel fishing line set up and it just complicated everything even more...I have 4 conventional fishing rods with a number of different tackle (not targeting bass right now as it is out of season) but was hoping to get One Walleye ok I'll take a frigging perch!
Thank you for showing us your lure and your set up. After being frustrated too many times this helps.
Definitely that’s what all about sharing with fellow fishermen Good luck out there
Nice. So in the are you safer with a man or a bear question you would be equal to the bear 😂
Definitely
Hello Galen, My name is Greg Popovice. My wife and I own and operate Tackle Factory in Fillmore New York, where the original Gee's G-40 galvanized minnow trap is still manufactured. I appreciate the time and effort that you have put into the video. We still manufacture the Gee's G-40 products as the have been for decades. I have traps that are 60-70 years old and still fit our new pieces today. If you ever get this way stop in and check us out. By the way... The black vinyl traps rust out way before the Gee's G-40 under normal freshwater conditions. I'd like to see if anyone can show me a black vinyl or silver imported trap that is still in useable shape after 5 years. If you or your viewers have any questions, I would be happy to answer them. Greg Popovice Tackle Factory The manufacturer of the original Gee's G-40 products
Wow 😮 So awesome and congratulations on such a long standing product. Your definitely right on the fact they last forever My grandpa has had this one for a long time I’ll definitely come check you out some day Take care and all the best in the future!!!
@@GalensFishing I'd like to see your grampas fit a newer half from today?
I was on the 2010 Streetsville program. Was a good one.
Nice 👍
Dude is the ice any good still ya know haliburton ways or is she all a gonner?
Lots of ice still Gonna be -18 here tonight
@GalensFishing truly eh!! I always feel it's gone cus I live In the radiation zone down here, mayhaps il have to gander up there, thanks man
I pressure can those . Its exact same as tuna.
Nice 👍 Have to try it
Nice video! I was wondering if the foot broke off on the gold hook setter. It looked like half of it was laying there by the hole when you were fighting that fish. I was wondering if it broke off when you lifted the device up off of the hole? Or maybe it had broken before and the repair came apart? I am the guy who came up with the JawJacker and I was checking out some JawJacker videos people had done and I came across your video. It's the first time I have seen that particular gold device in action. I have seen it advertised before but never seen it used. I was going to personal message you about it like you tube use to allow you to do but I can see how to do that now so I had to message you under the comments section. Hopefully you see my comment and can answer me back.
Wow your my idol The jaw jacker is the best invention for ice fishing. I had actually stepped on the piece earlier and broke it off. It was just sitting in there to keep it up right and not sitting in the water. The gold one works great except it’s definitely cheaper quality than the actual jaw jacker brand. We use to miss so many trout before using these, they would here us running on the ice and spit the bait. Not anymore there either hooked good or not Typically the smaller fish we miss. Not many big ones get past the hook set tho. Thanks a lot for reaching out Look me up Galen Bowman on Facebook Take care
Preach brother, been a rough couple weeks
Brutal bud Now we’re into that time of the winter your lucky to catch a cold if anything lol 😆
Where u fishing ?
In the haliburton area
Brother wouldent let me get out this weekend on account of oooooh its too warm!! Noo ice is fine up north...shoulda been fishing today
Ya the ice is holding up ok Definitely need to be careful tho, cold this week should be good for next weekend!
I love it! Now how did you get the ice on the lake? 😂 I’m jealous and can’t wait to try it next year
We’re lucky here the ice freezes early Thanks for watching!
So what are you saying? Is it the color that makes the difference or the design? All you mentioned was the name of the silver trap and kept comparing as the silver and black traps.
The silver colour attracts more minnow’s The black is poorly designed with two big of holes and doesn’t attract them to it
I have never had a problem with the black traps I get all kinds of minnows in mine
I bet you would get more with the silver trap lol 😆 Thanks for watching 😆
Nice video! Great job
Thanks alot !!!!!!
Massive difference in results! Really cool man. I need to get myself one of the silvers for the upcoming season. Wicked vid🤙
Thanks bro means alot 🙏
I think the size and shape of the holes in the black trap is the difference. I think a lot of the minnows can make their way through the mesh.
Definitely there poorly designed. The openings on each end are to large as well.
The original silver traps have been manufactured at Cuba Specialty, Fillmore, NY since the beginning. The black ones are probably a wannabe knockoff and it looks like the minnows could swim right through the holes. Maybe the black trap would be suitable for larger minnows, but for these little fatheads, no. Maybe this is not a fair comparison of the two traps because of this feature. Not the color, but the size of the mesh is the reason here?
I don’t think so, I’ve tested them in the summer with large creek shiners Still only catches a quarter the amount Thanks for watching Take care
I’m guessing the idea is that the black rubber coated traps don’t rust
Nice set up! Must be hard putting all that money and time in and mother nature says no not this year! Dangerous year for ice fishing!
Thanks 🙏 I’m pretty lucky we have been out every weekend since then, so many small lakes that freeze early with stocked trout. But ya overall terrible year for getting to the good spots and bigger lakes Take care
Don’t you just love walking in slush haha
Ya it sucks 😕
I wonder if spray painting the black ones with white or chrome would help?
Ya good idea I will have to try it out Thanks 😊
Good way to spread diseases to other lakes.
Ya definitely. We are not allowed to transport them out of are bait zone unless salted Thanks for watching!
I’ve noticed the same thing. Stay away from the black minnow traps.
Ya I’m not sure why they even sell them !!!
Thanks for the info! Watching you step over the hole at the end invited trouble. It reminded me of a woodsman’s maxim I learned. Never step on what you can step over. Never step over what you can step around.
Thanks for the kind words !!!
they outlawed this in ny
That is really sad. Unfortunately we likely will loose this right as well. We are the only province left in Canada allowed to fish with live bait as far as I know
Water bugs are just kos weird buggers
Definitely weird for sure
They have a really painful bite. Watch coyote Peterson get bitten by one
I’m definitely gonna check that out. Not kidding even its back leg gave me a prick in the finger actually hurt pretty good. I’m curious if fish eat these ? It came from a stocked trout lake
Toe biter!
It kills fish
Really eh, how so ???? Do they affect fish populations? Looks like something they would love to eat Thanks for watching
Giant water beetle. Put one in my aquarium one time and the thing flew out and my mom squished it.
I wanted to use for bait !
It's a Water bug.
Ya looks like brook trout would demolish these things the lake was full of them
Thanks for the straightforward instruction. It's quite the inspiration for me to go find my minnow trap.
Awesome. I hope you do it’s a great way just to get out and have fun Take care
excellent video, I don't know of any ponds here in southern Michigan, but I do live beside a lake with a fishable channel about 6 foot deep!! Do you happen to dig your own wigglers?
Thanks for watching!!!!!! Ya I go out in the yard at night after it rains and worms are always on top of the grass No digging just have to be quick Most lakes will have minnows in winter as well it’s just harder to find the area there in to set your trap. Small ponds are almost guaranteed
maybe this is a stupid question but do all lakes have minnows like this or similar?
In the winter time minnows move to ponds and small lakes were there is lots of oxygen In the summertime almost every small river or creek has minnows in it Thanks for watching
Great video - and some amazing fish. I had never seen a rainbow that dark. What zone were you in? (apologies if I missed it)
Zone 15, thanks alot for watching, I'm not sure what makes them get so dark !!!
I'm heading to ice camp this weekend and hoping I can find somewhere with less slush. Heading north from Pbo area, see how it goes! @@GalensFishing
@fishofthenorth3384 good luck be safe check ice as you go Have fun !!!
I go out last weekend, get the quad stuck and break the towbar going into a lake off a logging road trying to replicate what you do. Then you post this pulling up with a buddy and a skidsteer😂😂😂. Man i brought the wrong machine! Haha good video
That sucks, ya I wasn't trying to walk anywhere in that stuff, had to call in the heavy duty help lucky my brother was up to it lol
Warm Temps next week will knock snow down
@@GalensFishing I'll keep that in mind👍🏻
Galen hand lining rainbows like a boss! Man, thank god for that bob cat. Unreal brown to start they day and mannn those dark rainbows always get me. unreal gents. looks like freakin march out there with that slush. The little tube kills it again! see you boys soon!
Thanks Bro 😎 Ya that rainbow was crazy !!!!! Ya I can’t use those tubes but they definitely work good !!!!!
@@GalensFishing why can't you use the tubes?
@@TheBigFishEnergy I don’t like how light they are lol, they are crazy good tho obviously lol 😆
Unreal trout action as expected my man! Sweet video dude.
Thanks a lot for the support Man !!!!!!!!
Amazing! I gotta start doing this!
Ya it’s so rewarding saves time and money in the long run
💯 agree the black coated traps suck idk if it's what they coat it with or what but only catch 1/2 if that with that junk lol
Thanks. Ya I'm not sure if that's what they use for crawdads or something but they gotta stop selling them as minnow traps
Boy does that bring some great memories (that's why I made my ice fishing tent we could sleep in it) we would go into a lake unhook the tent drive around with the snowmobiles spend the night let the slush freeze and catch fish .
Thanks 🙏 That’s awesome 😎, Ya it definitely pays to pack the slush the night before eh
Sweet vid Galen! Stumbled on your videos this year and inspired me to do back lake fishing for trout. Had some success on Brookies, Bows are next on the list. Going to head up that way on Saturday, do you think the slush will be frozen over?
Thanks a lot really appreciate it I’m pretty sure the slush will be tightened up. I’m going tomorrow to check it out. I will comment back here tomorrow night to let you know !!!! There is a local lake trout tournament at the legion on Saturday just thought I’d mention it
Awesome thanks! Conditions were brutal last weekend. I did hear about the tournament, we won’t be on any of those lakes though, are you fishing in it? Good luck!
@@adrianl9366 ya I’m hoping ice is safe enough as they are bigger lake’s hopefully make a video of the day
Do you lads ever try aeroplane jigs? Bright orange jigging raps are killers for trout, gets em right worked up.
Ya we use to use airplane jigs a lot when they first came out. There not around as much work awesome for rainbows when there being moody
Ya man that is freaking beautiful browns. Not alot of lakes stocked here in zone 15 with them, my buddy got his splake to a taxidermist, just under 24 inches, and faaaat. 635$ and 6 months to a year shel be on the wall
Thanks man !!!!! Ya browns are not easy to find in the winter !!! There colours are amazing. Awesome about the splake, we’re did he take it ?
Enjoyed your video. I like how you show what type of bait your using. I’m getting back into ice fishing after 35 years and I enjoy all the advise you can offer. Also, I bought a cottage on glamor near Gooderham several years ago
Thank you so much for such a positive comment. They keep me going. Glamor lk is a very good lake for rainbows In moose season you can see them in the river down at end of that lake. Unfortunately some are getting out and being caught in the town there but they put in a lot of them Take care and good luck out there. Best tip ever for trout light line and flourocarbon litre is a must !!!!
Thanx Galen, where is a good spot to ice fish for rainbows on glamor ? I’m at the north end
