Ice fishing for walleye

[Southpole]

Ice fishing for walleye is really fun. Much more fun than boat fishing for them. Tilt ups work well but mostly with live minnows.

Wish we could fish with live minnows here in Washington… if Minnesota wasn’t so screwed up politically I would relocate there just for the ice fishing

Ice is just about thick enough for me to get the pickup out now. Planning a family fishing day for New Year’s Eve but hopefully get to get out once before they too. Just bought myself a new pop up shelter big enough for the whole family. There’s nothing better than ice fishing if you ask me.

I’ll second that perch are just as good as walleye.

Been too warm here, I think Idaho and western Montana are in the same boat for no ice yet. Bonaparte is just starting to make ice for the second time this year but that’s it. Bumming me out…

Go north of Brainerd, way better.

Lake Vermillion. North East of Brainerd  where I grew up. Caught plenty of walleye through the ice.  Always in a fish house.  Caught a 7 pound lake trout through the ice at 90'.  Caught pike through the ice.  It is a blast.  Curled would be awesome because they got some musky in that lake to.  That might be interesting to catch through the ice

I've driven over to fish Rainy River and ice fish LOW a couple of times.  Also driven over to Bemidji,, then up to Lake Winnipeg, to ice fish those famous "greenbacks" there.   

Ice fishing off of Arneson's resort in the ice town is a hoot.  We also spiked out from there to fish around Gull Rock, best sauger fishing I've ever seen.   Glow Swedish pimple with a minnow head, deadly.

We had a lot of fun in those days.

Here's a vid my pard took from the Gull Rock trip way back then,  funny vid...

Back in the day we would take eel pout and throw them on the lake let it freeze and play football with it.  What is even funnier I am watching Jay Siemens on YouTube catch walleye and pike through the ice in Manitoba.
