  • Join us on a thrilling ice fishing expedition in the wilds of Alaska, where Caleb's reckless maneuver sends our sled careening into open water. Miraculously, we manage to escape the icy depths and make it back home safely, thanks to the heroic efforts of our trusty Argo. But the adventure doesn't end there - watch as Jessica takes a plunge into the frigid waters, only to emerge and whip up delicious fish tacos right on the ice, using the fresh catch of northern pike. It's a tale of survival, resilience, and culinary creativity in the face of danger - all set against the stunning backdrop of the Alaskan wilderness.

My family ate salmon a fair amount when I grew up, but my mom didn't like tuna, so that was it ( except for fishsticks, but they don't count). It looks like Destiny's the big winner this time! Great looking fish! Take good care, friends. Hey again Kaleb. You are a great friend. 😊

      Yes the Argo would have no issues. However correct it would need to climb out. But we have driven it into our lake in the summer, it just pops right out. It’s pretty mind blowing and it feels so scary the first time like is this actually going to float and get back out of the lake…… it does

    Keeping in mind, my knowledge of winter play/ice fishing is zip, that ice covering the lake is looking like it’s time to end the season!! You have mentioned what a milder winter you have had and so I am thinking you may have break-up earlier than usual. 🤷🏻. Glad you were able to eat your catch in such a short time of catching. I think that factor would make your efforts all the better!
    Until our next visit, keep on dry land, my dear! ❤ Momma G

    My cousin just saved a family of 4 that went through the ice in our local lake. 13 inch thick but it has been a strange winter. As they were driving their side by side the ice gave way. Only 1.5” on the spot they went through. My cousin heard screams and got there and pulled the 4 year old out. He was under almost 5 minutes. He kept working on him and was able to finally get a pulse. The child is now in intensive care in a coma. Not sure if it is induced or not. The freeze and thaws here in Vermont have been so crazy, you just don’t know what is safe. Glad your ok.

    After all these ice fishing videos, and you go to set the hook right away. NOTHING! Let them EAT IT, take line and then touch the tip up. Wait intel there ready to poop it out before doing anything. Give it a try, you have nothing to lose as that’s what you normally do!

      @modernhomesteadalaska  6 місяців тому

      @Jandyg 6 місяців тому

      I’m saying let the Fish eat the bait intel they poop it out. Don’t set the hook so quickly, it’s cold and they take their time to eat.
      I know you catch a-lot of them. But as a 25 year commercial fisherman. I’m thinking you should catch every one of them.
      I love all your channel puts out. Watch them all
      Hope All are Well and Safe.
