If a company that you repped like you did says “we’re not sure what you do for us,” you gotta bail. You’re an honest person, you deserve the best. That’s a big loss for them, not you. Best content on UA-cam.
Ya I thought I honestly did a good job for them... Had some of the best Mega Live footage on the internet I thought...
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors you absolutely did/do. Their loss. And thank you so much for being real. I went livescope in the end but you almost had me with some of that sick 360 footage and fair explanations of what each setup is capable of. I'm still running a helix at the helm for mapping but this may be enough for me to say piss off when the time comes. Customers.. esp ones spending this kind of money.. want to know and trust they are getting an unbiased review from the "influencers" (i hate that term) we watch
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors you definitely do I absolutely love your content and I think every person that likes ice fishing should watch your vids. I hope your channel grows massive
They are nuts to lose you!! You're the best out there for sure, very poor business decision on their part!!
I concur
Ok everyone, our goal should be to get Clayton over the 100,000 mark before next ice season. No one deserves it more.
Appreciate that a lot, I will be happy to even just maintain the people that are already watching, but 100k sounds great too! :)
Sounds like Garmin has a golden opportunity to get one of the best fishing UA-camrs as a partner! Either way best of luck going forward Clayton! ❤
Man Clayton I can't believe hummingbird drop the ball like that with you, you have been an excellent spokesperson for them and showing people excellent footage from their equipment. Good luck with your next sonar company you work with hope they treat you better than hummingbird did because you deserve to be treated good
It is legitimately insane that humminbird would suggest you don’t do anything for them. Even if it isn’t a case where you recommend a specific product and viewers end up buying it, just the quality of your videos and how fun and exciting you show fishing to be influences people to invest in all kinds of gear. It is because of videos from guys like you and Jay and Aaron etc that my brother and I have bought sonar units, augers, batteries, and all kinds of other stuff, and had amazing adventures because of it. You are a vital part of the fishing community and any company not recognizing that needs to give their head a shake.
Especially since he’s one of the few ice guys using and promoting the Mega Live system. And let’s be honest, Humminbird needs guys like Clayton to showcase their product because it’s simply not as popular or as good as Garmin. I’m a die hard Humminbird guy, but I will be the first to admit that side by side Garmin destroys bird in clarity, accuracy, and the biggest thing which is target separation and bottom separation. You would think a company that is behind the leader with a sub par product would be absolutely pumped to have an ice guy as popular as Clayton repping their system.
From a Minnesota guy who lives for ice fishing, I always enjoy your videos!
That being said, I take pride in buying nice things and appreciate them. You just saved me about 4 days of research on which unit I want to go with. No hard feelings because each company has it’s pros/cons, but I appreciate your transparency!
Thanks Clayton! You are the best fishing educator on UA-cam.
Hummingbird lost a great advocate when they lost you.
Great video by a true outdoorsman who has respect for the envrionment and an ethical perspective on conservation. Well done, Sir, keep your lines tight!
Call that new tube "The middle weight" and call that trouble with humminbird water under the bridge my man! Keep the videos coming and don't look back. If you ever want to catch a flathead on the Mississippi river let me know!!
Let's call it lake acid, wow humminbird dropped the ball...... you were like a free spokesperson for them haha
Thank you for being SO honest my son loves your videos. When you say it’s a slow day like we have fishing it’s real for him. So thank you- for saying your out for hours an you only caught so many fish. Honesty is amazing so he understands we don’t always catch fish.
Clayton, you've always been honest with us. That's why we love your channel!! Great laker!!
Here is an example of what you did for Humminbird. Because of your use of the electronics, I purchased a Helix 5 a few years ago. It was OK but wasn't what I would call great. Earlier this winter I switched to a Panoptix Ice bundle. Wow, what a difference in usability. You have the best ice fishing channel on the web. Keep it up. Thanks for your dedication.
Man those guys are out of their mind 😂😂 my buddies and I watch alot of guys on UA-cam and we all agree you’re the best hands down, with the best footage also no questions asked 💯
Huge loss for them Clayton
Hard to believe Humminbird did not think what you were putting out was worth anything. You will love the Garmin I have no doubt. Their head units are a much, much better value than Humminbird and the Livescope is for sure a bit better than MEGA. Enjoy buddy!
Thanks for explaining your switch from Hummingbird to Garmin. These electronics are a huge investment for most of us and not something we want to get wrong or regret. I've been sitting on the fence about which system to invest in and this video has helped me make my decision : ) I really appreciate your honesty and transparency about the equipment you use. It's a shame that Hummingbird didn't understand that integrity is what you brought to their brand.
And I appreciate the support very much!!
For that humminbird rep to say “I’m not even sure what you do for us” is honestly just ridiculous. You have always given the best explanations when using these electronics. It’s one of the many reasons I love this channel. I’d look at this as a blessing in disguise because, you’re right, you were being handcuffed if they expected you to solely use humminbird products. Thanks for another great ice season, Clay.
Thanks for another great ice season! Was worth every minute of recording and editing. Double thanks for taking us along!
Much appreciated!
Always loved watching yours and Jay's videos, honestly reason why I got hooked on hard water fishing more. Just both the honesty you guys have with the equipment you use makes a huge difference when deciding what equipment to buy. Its unfortunate that a company doesn't like the honesty and feed back that you give to help them improve their product.
I can second this. You guys got me going CRAZY over ice fishing the last 3-4 years. Love the content, and
#clayisbetterthanjay
Please don't leave us, Clayton! We look forward to you all week!
My dear wife says, call that tube just average! You already have a small medium and large, that one looks average to me…🤦♂️🤦♂️😂😂
Great job Clayton, your ice fishing seasons are so much longer than what we have in NE Ont. Your videos are so helpful for whenever I am able to get out fishing, winter or summer. Enjoy the break, keep up the great work.
That medium sized tube jig should be named “perfect size”
I really like how you always take care of the fish.
I'm now a Garmin Livescope owner all because of your vids. Thanks!
Thanx for a great hard water season Clayton. Appreciate all the info you give out on a weekly basses. You helped me get a pb pike on the ice this year! Mucho Gracias. ✌️
Medium tube name: the hammer.
Seek and destroy.
The can’t shake it (CS) for short
Mudhen massacre
Togue tamer
Clayton, Thank you for being sooooo Honest with us. Really enjoy all your OutDoors videos. HB's loss is Garmin's Gain. This Livescope unit in this video, where does it fit in as far as power and performance go. I know they have just come out with something a little more special. Can you imagine how Gussy felt Saturday night knowing he had pretty well milked that spot he was on and didn't have another Major spot to hit. Good old Tinnies kick Glass.
I struggled to make the switch. I still have my helix units, but I started making the switch to garmin about 5 months ago. Ran livescope all winter and installing it on my boat and kayak shortly. Wish I had done it sooner, plus garmin support is absolutely amazing.
As someone who owns mega live… that garmin clarity is making me regret it now lol. 35ft and under has been fine, but this clarity in deep water is next level. Hopefully garmin throws the bag💰 at you Clayton! You deserve it, enjoy the time off.
Crazy that little bird company had the audacity to say that to you! Their loss for sure! I was heavily leaning towards going to their live imaging and a lot of that had to do with your use of it. Then I saw you cut ties and go Garmin....That sealed the deal for me. Love my Garmin Livescope and wish you all the best! Your are easily my favorite UA-cam for fishing.
Always have respected your honesty when it comes to products you use. You stood by hummingbird even though they aren’t as good as Garmin and you were honest about it. They should be improving their product. Not attacking popular UA-camrs who use their product. I am personally excited to watch your future lane trout video’s with the XR! You’re crushing it!
Thanks!
Well done, my favorite channel! The reason is you. Thanks for sharing.
Tube Jig name - "The Schick Stick". Love your content Clayton, keep the vids coming! Here's to reaching 100k in 2023, cheers!
Cheers!
Thank you Clayton for all the vids this season. It's a lot of work behind the scenes I'm sure with editing, travel ect... Thank you and enjoy the time off!!!
The Medium MacSchick- "Trout To Go"
glad you made the move to garmin good for you
Thanks for your videos. I was down last winter and most of this one with health issues and you are how I got out. Makes me wish I lived farther north. I fish smaller fish and am fortunate to have a son who builds custom rods for me. The saying is: If you can't catch fish at least look good. Next fall.......
Can’t wait for a new vid from you, but also hoping you’re spending some good time with family. Been studying up on your previous spring lake Trout videos as I’m doing my first trip in my first outing in my first little aluminum boat next week. You’re an amazing guy through and through!
Well Clayton, you've had some youtube record lake trout. But the new world record lake trout was just caught in Colorado. Let's see if you can break 2 records in one now!
I think I’d probably pack it up after that first fish. Tough to beat that.
Clayton you should call it the Clayton chartreuse you use it a lot it's in all your videos that sounds like a good name for it
I've had live scope since the day it came out. You're the only person that ever made mega live seem okay, so you did that for them. I honestly thought it was awful until you said good things. You're better off without them!
Aggressive medium for the tube!
Thanks for the honesty on hummingbird, just spent 6K on a mega live with the helix 12. Taking it all back in the am. If hummingbird isn't gonna look after you, they sure won't look after the everyday working stiff angler......Love the channel!!!!!!
Makes me not wanna go with Humminbird anymore. Guess I'll look into Garmin and Lowrance for my upgrade fish finder this summer. I've always had issues with getting my Helix Ice reading past 30ft and losing my jig at 28ft.
Highly recommend the Livescope!
You always gives us your honest opinions. I'm going to miss you until November, Clayton.
I still have open water content too :)
Really interesting discussion of the spot you were on at the end of the video. So cool to zoom out and see the precise location in context of the larger lake setting
LETTTTSSSS GOOOOOO🤘🤘🤘 OPEN WATER SOOOOOOON YO🤘🤘♥️ AMAZING CATCHES!
Awesome Clayton! Welcome to the "Dark Side" (Garmin)! I applaud your honesty! Great video as always!
I can't be the only viewer who bought Mega Live after watching your footage. I kinda figured livescope was better from watching Jay, but I already had everything HB. It's really too bad they had to act like that. Keep being you. That's what got you here. Sincerely a life long fan🍻
Always appreciated!! Like I said it was never a terrible option, I just felt it wasn't the best, and I guess they don't like to hear the truth.
Lol he diss tf out of hummingbird 😅
Yup!!
Laker Gobber stopper is the tube name. your the best Clayton Can hardly wait to see to your next video.
Hi Clayton. love your content and your honesty. I had a no luck with humming bird services to, had a unit in warranty and non of there Canadian disturbers would help and when I reached out to humming bird themselfs they said there’s nothing they can do, to contact authorized dealers, then no more responses. I have a lowrance now, great services and units worked for 2 years no issues!
I bought my Helix 7 because of your videos. Humminbird made a mistake! Thanks for all the videos Clayton.
Thanks Clayton for another excellent video. One can devote significant time and effort into angling and sometimes catch few fish, but landing one 43" and an upper 30's lake trout in the same day would definitely be a major milestone in my books! Well done!
Had such a fun time going after lakers- definitely gotta go back for more next year. One more trip and then open water!
Great video Clayton! Thanks for being honest with us all. Me and my son enjoy your videos every time they come out! You get us pumped to get out and make our own memories!
I will always 100% be honest!
Could you do a pike fishing video or what you use for big pike. Also I agree with what your saying they were being jerks.
There are countless shills these days it's hard to tell what's legit, so a very sincere thank you for your honesty. I've gotta assume HB got what, at least a hundred thousand or so people (who actually enjoy fishing, not blind commercials) to see their product being used to catch huge fish, many times? Had to have been one of the best ROI's of all time.... What an odd thing to say "not sure what you do".
Good name for the medium tube.
“The Middle Man”
Fantastic ice season Clay! I enjoy every second of your content. Hummingbird doesn’t deserve you! By far you are the best laker UA-camr out there amongst other species as well. (Sorry Justin). I’ve taken so much knowledge away from you that I have applied to my own fishing experiences. Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!
Damm Clay this vid is giving me Laker fever 😂 Cheers on another amazing ice season buddy 🍻
There loss and Garmin's gain. You handled that with class. Garmin, as you stated, is a much better unit so enjoy.
I just joined your channel this winter, and as an avid ice fisher, loved the content. You are a breath of fresh air and look so forward to your videos next winter.
Being I live in Southern Ontario I will probably never get your way but my dream ice fishing trip would be a day or two with you.
You are a classy guy.
Excellent vid as always!! Good explanation of situation 100% Thanks for what you do 🐟🐟👍👍
Appreciate everything!
Dam you Clayton Schick!!!! I crave fish tacos after watching your videos....
The Daymaker tube
I haven't heard wonderful things about humminbird and how they treat people. Garmin definitely has the better live unit
When you going to show us this magical fg knot? Last time I tried it my husky jerk when flying into the sunset never to be seen again. Lol
1st fish thinks is a medium and its beter then most peoples fish of a life time. Clayton ur the man mkay
German is super lucky to have ya
My cousin Tom invented the Finicky Fooler. I enjoy watching and learning from your videos. Being from the Green Bay Area, muskies and walleyes consume my time on the water. I enjoy your laker videos very much!
As for a name for your tube…instead of wonderbread, since it looks kind of like a Twinkie, maybe “twinkle toes” or “Twinkie toes” or “Twinkiebread”
First fish at 43” had to be 30lbs wowza!
nice setup
I wish this video would of came out before I bought the mega live. I do a lot of laker fishing and I find anything past 40’ isn’t good, and the forward facing is disappointing. I wish Humminbird would listen to the feedback from guys like you, because at the end of the day, we the viewers are making our decisions on what to buy based on watching our favourite guys on UA-cam.
I bought a helix because I really look up to you and trust your opinion. I won’t buy another now and don’t get me wrong I love my helix but I don’t wish to support a company that would treat such a great and respected man in our sport such as yourself like that. Garmin for the win! Keep up the great content Clayton and thanks for all you have taught me about being a better angler. Tight lines!
Wicked trout !! Wanting to get into more lake trout fishing off the boat/ice fish any recommended area?
That medium size bait shall be called the schmedium schmasher lol…I have had my lvs34 in 75 feet of water, I could track my lure while jigging, not when it was still. But you could for sure see fish moving around and know when they are near your jig. I went with livescope over mega live but I was all but convinced on mega live only because of you. Let’s bring back game of inches next year please
You call it like you see it and I appreciate that. One of the reasons I went with a humminbird flasher was from watching your videos. I'd say you've done a lot for them and continue to do a lot for them even if the truth isn't what they want to hear. Garmin is winning the live imagining battle and I hope humminbird wakes up and makes the appropriate adjustments. I also hope they turn to you for testing going forward because chances are, this channel will be where I see it first. Thanks again Clay.
Oh they made it quite clear I will never be the guy to be testing something. He says “you think you should have got mega live before anyone else and that will never happen”. I should note humminbird said this. And not Garmin :)
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors wow!!!
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors we can always hope you communicated with a bad Humminbird representative. I'm currently looking to upgrade all of my electronic fishing units and Garmin is looking more and more attractive lately. More so after seeing your video. I truly believe a great product is reflective from great employees passed down through great customer service.
Thanks again for your input and I look forward to seeing what you do use and do next.
Love the video. I'm new at ice fishing, but loving it. Can you tell me about the jig head you're usig with this tubes?
Just when I think that you couldn’t post a more clickbaity title, you go ahead and catch and absolute MONSTER of a laker and totally redeem yourself!! 😂😂
Really appreciate the real-talk about your decision behind going with Garmin.
Starting the day like that, may as well pack it up cause it doesn’t get much better than that!
Love it bud!
The best never rest Clayton,frostbite,striker ice,otter now garmin great as always can't wait till next ice bite vids
The Schictreuse should be the name of the medium tube. Great videos keep them coming! Live scope is better! Hummingbird doesn’t know what they lost
NOT GUNNA LIE pretty jealous of all that quality ice 😉 casting spinnerbaits for pike down in Illinois with 40 degree water rn 🤣
I like the new unit. The depth marks on the side are nice to see
Great season of ice fishing Clayton!1 Glad you came over to the darkside, lol !! Been using Garmin for a few years now and feel its a real step up over the other players. Thanks for your content.
I would love an honest review on the jackery power station and solar panel set up. They claim it can run an electric heater which I think would be a game changer for ice camping
Great video, Clayton! I appreciate the honesty on the electronics. Thankfully I don't have to be mad at you... at the start of the season I knew I was going to buy either Garmin or Humminbird but couldn't decide. All the reviews and the majority of the UA-cam population said Garmin. But folks like you had me second guessing and thinking Humminbird was just as good. At the end of the day... I went with Jay and secured my Garmin. And thankfully I did! Sounds like I made the right choice.
Killer lake trout! Someday I'll catch fish like that. 😂
When it's your birthday and Clayton drops a new video early in the morning. Great start to a hopefully great day!
Well Happy Birthday!!
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors Thank you Clayton. Love from Wisconsin.
Thx Clayton. It was another great ice season!!
Man you catch some beasts! Definitely on my bucket list for next winter. Just couldn’t make it happen this year! See you on the open water!
The highs were definitely high! Thanks for the epic videos, and tight lines!
Tramping lake walleyes! Do it Clayton
Great video as always. I will patiently wait for your next video. That medium jig should be called Green Slimer.
it was a joy this winter watching your videos love the ones with you and Jay, unfortunately we had horrible warm weather this winter here and did not get out on any of my real ice fishing spot hopefully next year. Looking forward to your summer videos.
You definitely had some of the best mega live content out there. Up theirs eh. Cheers to some hog lakers bud!
Too bad about Humminbird, you're a great teacher of the sport, and I have learned many little things that help me on the ice and water, definitely their loss. Maybe I will see you on the water some time, and too bad no more videos for this year.
When one door closes, another one opens up!! :) Cheers!
Wait....time for another shot of Fireball! lol
