    Love having perch as a warning sign for pike and musky. They scatter and when that happens, get ready for a thrill!

    Play it safe. We've been fishing hard for the last 3 days and yesterday the ice deteriorated very badly. Then it rained all night. Even if the ice seems thick enough, its very weak with lots of air bubbles in it.

    Gotta say I love the style of your videos. Straight to the point and straight to the fishing. Just a few lines about location and weather conditions to give some context. I don't need a lengthy intro playing rock music in the background. Fishing is not THAT exciting. And I definitely don't need a talking head for several minutes before bait even touches the water. I know which part of UA-cam I'm on. Thanks for keeping it real, and for not wasting my time to milk the algorithm.

    You'd have been minus your lure, your bait, and maybe even had your rod snapped in half, if that Musky would've taken your bait/lure combo! That thang was a BULL!!!!! The one thing I noticed, immediately, was that there were no Yellow Perch to be seen, anywhere, just before that big ole Musky swam on through. They skedaddled, quicker 'n' you could say "Scat"!
    Looks like you had a great day fishing. Catch ya next time!

      @@Battlenut1 All is well for me but fishing not so much. More like where has winter been! This season has been a joke for ice fishing. I was off to a good start and then all that rain and warm weather around xmas made all my lakes to open water. They finally froze about 2 weeks ago but been out couple times and havent had any fish swim through the cam which is unheard of. I think they are confused too. Shallows have been vacant. I'll be on the grind this week to get a video made before we loose the ice again lol. Hope your on a better bite then me at them moment! Thanks for checking in.

    There is a camera on Amazon which is a quad lens camera. Each lens would show the direction it is pointing. I believe it’s about $500 more than the single lens camera you are using. Do you think that is worth it or is just turning The single lens around good enough? Thanks again for your time and I love your channel. But my wife doesn’t because now I’m spending more money.🙂
