Any day of fishing that starts with a ‘Howdy everyone” and a pike like that is a good day!

I normally don't complain about a small hole but you boys need the 10" auger

This was great; an enjoyable change of pace. After seeing the equipment/setups, it made me think of suggesting having an "old school fishing challenge" for panfish, bass, and pike. All anyone can use is tackle/equipment from 60s/70s e.g., a 3ft fiberglass panfish rods with the plastic reels, the old wood folding tip ups, a spud or manual auger etc; and no electronics [except a Go-pro]—just the lead clip-on depth finders. Take Jacob and 2-3 other friends and see what happens—maybe tweet out a challenge to other channels with a fish/steak dinner, or a rod/reel to the victor. Just a thought to make things fun and a bit more challenging. Thanks Matt. God bless.

Well, now my day is complete! Another excellent video from NDyakangler! That's one thing I've never done, even though I live in upstate NY, where we get lots of ice. I keep saying I'd like to go ice fishing, but never got out there, and now I'm 82, and not likely to get out there, either. But I can enjoy it through your videos, Matt - thank you!

Next get your buddies together for a hockey game. That ice looks better than most indoor rinks.

I was getting nervous. It was almost 9:00 AM here and no notification for NDYakangler. And then, just like Christmas, it suddenly was there. L. O. L.

i learned something from Siberian ice fishermen meter and a half deep on the runs between the swamp banks as the pike are chasing the bait from these along with the perch...devils lake north dakota worthy perch too beautiful color.
