Hi everyone,
I just booked a surprise trip for my dad. He introduced me to ice fishing when I was too young to remember. He’s 70, and now I take him. He’s not sick or anything…just not young and in charge anymore.
I booked a 3 day deal in late Feb at Sportsmans Lodge Oak Island. I want to show him the best time ever. I have a vexilar FL 18, rods and all a pretty good selection of baits.
Do any of you have any tips to offer? Baits, techniques, etc…? The lodge will send fresh minnows with us every morning. I live near River Falls, WI. We don’t have many lakes in our area that have good walleye ice fishing. We spend the winter chasing crappies, blue gills, and perch. So I sure could use a few tips on catching ice wallleys.
Thanks very much to all.
