Didn't Expect This... Ice Fishing Fun at my Local Lake (First Catfish through the ice!)

Didn’t expect this… Ice Fishing Fun at my Local Lake!
What started as a casual afternoon of ice fishing at my local lake turned into an unforgettable trip! I set up late afternoon/early evening, hoping to hook into some nice bass, some walleye or maybe some panfish, but the bite was slow… until I hooked into something BIG! 💥
Turns out, it was my first catfish through the ice and it put up an insane fight on my ultralight rod! Along the way, I also managed to catch a little crappie, making for an overall fun (and unexpected) evening on the ice.
Watch the full video to see how it all went down!
