Nice job, Jason. Thank you for all that you do. I miss Tony but you're doing a fabulous job continuing what he worked hard at promoting. Back in the '90s, I fished with him and John Gilkerson out of Sunset Lodge on Oahe... Bush's Landing. Again, thank you.
Perch fishing on Devils Lake is some of the most exciting fishing that we have ever experienced. Our trip was to Devils Lake was very fun after the past two years we weren't really able find the jumbos, but with your help we were able to find some really nice schools of perch this year. Thank You!
Loved the show..informative..and agree the need to regulate. Especially now with Covid and almost exponential interest in outdoors, which is great, but technology and social media can have an impact on resources. Mn has a large population of hunting and fishing enthusiasts. I'm 60 plus yrs old and want to enjoy QUALITY fishing and HUNTING. I hope Mn will see the need in its whitetail QUALITY mgt strategy also. It's been way to long.
You prolly dont give a damn but does anybody know a trick to log back into an Instagram account?? I somehow forgot the account password. I love any assistance you can offer me.
@Harlem Maddux I really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and I'm in the hacking process now. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Florida guy here. If I make a trip up north this winter and fish for 2-3 days, what are the odds I have a good day? I know that's a tough question, but I've never been ice fishing and wouldn't want to make the trip up to get skunked.
If you have never ice fished and only have 2-3 days, your realistic chances of being successful probably aren’t good. You might need a snowmobile or tracked vehicle just to access the lake. In your situation, a guide would be money well spent as a good guide can get you on the ice and show you a lot while hopefully putting you on a good bite.
+StorminGormanYT they both work really well. Plastics are nice because they are durable and have a lot of action, great for aggressive fish. There are some days however when waxworms just catch more fish... especially fussy bluegills. Learn to use both. Waxworms will probably be easiest to get confidence in when just starting but grow to be versatile as an angler. Good luck!
Great video! Any pointers on a good lake to try out that is smaller within 2 hours from grand forks, some college buddies and i wanna go out this weekend, thanks!
+Max Bachelor usually use a Fluorocarbon leader but find that on places like Devils Lake and many of these sloughs with stained water, the leader isn’t always necessary.
+Ron Feyo we consider a small lake anything less than 2,000 acres. Most of the small dish bowl lakes are between 500 and 1000 acres. We don’t have many one or two acre lakes that hold fish because of the winters we have.
@@JasonMitchellOutdoors ide rather watch fishing commercials then random youtube commercials. at least you can skip the commercials if you dont like them when they are in the actual video.
just fyi people, when he showed how the minnow head rocks by just light jig under the spoon, that is false, the minnow head floats and causes the hooks to be upside down, i hook my minnow heads under the head so the head is showing a true bait fish movement when jigging and plus better feel on the bite... I don't think i have missed a light bite since. Oh, and i will NEVER EVER use braided ice line again!! ice buildup is horrible, and i assuming they were joking about sensitivity on braided, braided retains water and thus causes more weight on the line, thus less sensitivity. But i guess they have to sell product i guess.
+Ryan Roehr you can have your opinion but if a minnow head is floating a treble hook, you are pinching too far back and not pinching the air bladder. As far as your comment on braid, braid does freeze up and so does mono when conditions get really tough. Difference is that I can take a mitten or glove to clean off braid very fast where as mono is much more difficult. The no stretch of braid is way more sensitive and is way better on setting the hook in my opinion than the stretch of mono. Just sharing a lot of hard learned lessons that you can take or not. One thing is certain, I have caught literally thousands of perch and would never tell you to try something I don't do or use myself.
@Ryan Roehr Is English your second language or did you just decide to quit school at the third week of the fourth grade? Yes, I educate the idiots. You're welcome, America.
Hey everybody Jason Mitchell is a true professional we here in the Dakotas are proud of him
Thanks for the kind words dude!
Nice job, Jason.

I really like the way you appreciate these fish Jason we release most of our catch also big fish are so beautiful and special

More fish less ads but good video
What lake I’ve been wanting to get one good perch day through the ice. Great video!!

I hope clam has improved the epoxy on the rattling blade spoons. I've lost a bunch of the rattle chambers over the last 2 years.
+mrfish1991 yes that has changed. Contact Clam customer service regarding any old lures you have and they will replace them.
@@JasonMitchellOutdoors thats good to know i had the same issues
Any idea what happened to the bro bug jig in slug/snail color? I cant find them anymore. Link to a website possibly?
+lifted Ninja no idea, never used the Bro Bug much.

I’m 15 and new to fishing, I was wondering what you think about using plastic baits compared to wax worms

need links to those rods and reels, length and power !!!
Nice!!!
Great video! Any pointers on a good lake to try out that is smaller within 2 hours from grand forks, some college buddies and i wanna go out this weekend, thanks!
+Joshua Rogne check out stocking reports from the NDGF for Griggs and Nelson Counties.
Was this recorded last year? Safe ice at this time of year would be pretty hard to come across unless its in northern Manitoba or something
+Don’t ask Who Joe is this was filmed last winter but we are on the ice in places in ND. Been finding mostly 3-4 inches depending on the lake.
4-6 inches by where I live in central Wisconsin. Went out today to test the new lite flite out.
Who is Joe?
NJ 4 an inter dimensional horror beyond human comprehension
Joe who? Don't know him.
When using the braided line are you using a mono leader ?
+Max Bachelor usually use a Fluorocarbon leader but find that on places like Devils Lake and many of these sloughs with stained water, the leader isn’t always necessary.
Are freshwater shrimp any good eat?
+Fisher Man no
Good bait.
have you ever fillet them? tasty :)
What lake is this??
Send us a DM
Whats the name of that blue auger
+Roberto Medina Clam auger from a couple of years back that has the Solo two stroke motor.
Slab perch sir👊👊☝️
Have you ever ice fished Lake St Clair in Michigan?
+Adventure Fishing no but we hope to
@@JasonMitchellOutdoors would be cool to see ya out here, holla when u ready, i got some spots lol
Now DAS a big perch! Jerk him! Hahah
👍
lot of full spauners

What do you consider a small lake? That is no small lake in that video.
+Ron Feyo we consider a small lake anything less than 2,000 acres. Most of the small dish bowl lakes are between 500 and 1000 acres. We don’t have many one or two acre lakes that hold fish because of the winters we have.
@@JasonMitchellOutdoors lol the largest lakes in NJ (where I'm from) are between 1000 and 2000 acres. Perspective is crazy sometimes.
Not much more than a string of commercials!
Way too many commercials, not enough fishing. Video sucks.
LOL then don't watch it or skip through them HAHA
+Ture Vang go fishing so your not so crabby.
@@JasonMitchellOutdoors He's just crabby cause there isn't any ice by him yet
