Well once again here I sit in PA at the end of the year with NO ICE. I WILL be in this neck of the woods next winter for a week. I just subbed tonight so pardon my ignorance but do you guide or have guides that you recommend? THX Tom
Nice perch! Wish we had good Pan fish lakes like that here in Utah. A group of us our headed to Lake Cascade in Idaho in 2 weeks. 3rd trip. Can't wait!
oh man just got my icearmor edge x suit and headed to Cascade on the 18th of this month i could not be more excited. have been watching a ton of your videos gearing up for this trip definitely has been at the top of my bucket list lakes to hit then devil’s lake next year 🤘🏼💪🏼. great video guys tight lines and fish on
Jason, I finally got a sled and I remember you had a video where you mentioned you had added I-bolts and a longer rope to your sled, for when you walk in. I am going through them all. DO you remember how long of rope you recommend and size? i thought you had a wrap around the rope for comfort.
I just put eye bolts into the sled and take a twenty foot piece of rope with clasps in each end for clipping into the eye bolts. The longer rope can just drape over a shoulder and makes it much easier for hauling your gear.
Very cool to see Alex with you. My buddies and I met him a couple years ago on a guided trip with him. Awesome guy and very knowledge! We'll be back up this February to fish again with him!
We spent most of the day between 20-28 feet. Most of the fish didn’t show any signs of barotrauma. We did catch a few perch and one white bass that had barotrauma that we did keep and didn’t show. Barotrauma can be a moving target as far as exact depth. Of course if we see air bladders popped out or bulging eye balls, we keep the fish but if there is no signs of barotrauma in less than thirty feet of water, we feel comfortable releasing the fish.
I been waiting for a Jumbo perch video from you out here! Epic video as always Jason!!! I'm hoping to come up that way in the next few weeks for a few days!
Not really. Big difference is that Cascade is a reservoir so the structure is different. Cascade perch are much more aggressive and we fished much higher off the bottom.
There is over twenty inches now but it is drifting and blowing around so some places less and other places, the snow is hard. There are a few roads getting plowed but you might want to bring tracks if you have them.
Not very simple, these fish grow fast but don’t live past six years usually. You need big year classes of fish coming in but predation can have a big impact. Pike numbers really seem down and I believe that is helping the perch.
Use it all the time for finding fish and works great for crappies that are suspended but haven’t found forward facing sonar as effective for fish right to the bottom over deep water.
Its great you guys are throwing them back and showing people on the tube to throw those fish with trophy genetics back... just because you have a fish species like humans not all of them have the genetics to grow big so if you want big fish you throw the trophies back to spawn and get those genetics in the gene pool.
i cant believe your throwing them back knowing you are killing them anyway over 20 feet you are wasting a rescore just to look politicly correct what a wast
If the fish would have shown signs of barotrauma, we would have kept them. You can plainly see the air bladders aren’t blown up and their eyes aren’t bulging. If there is no signs of barotrauma, the fish will release fine. The depth for which barotrauma occurs is a moving target. Some days you see it from 25 feet, other days it’s thirty feet. You almost always see it past 35 feet. Have seen fish from as shallow as 15 feet with barotrauma.

Cascade is tremendous! Good luck.
Devils lake is a bucket list place for me. What is considered “late ice” on devils lake. I’d like to go when I can get around on a ATV.
Most years, late ice would be early April but it can vary.

Have fun!
Jumbo perch are the best. I also think they are one of the tastiest freshwater fish!

@@JasonMitchellOutdoors I watch too many of your videos. I forgot which one it was in. Thanks!!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
Great video. Be out there in a few weeks. Any recommendations on where to stay?
The perch are quite spectacular, they look like "green gold".
Was Dave Genz in the U.P. today? I’m pretty sure I saw him.
Ive watched a few of your vids now. Love the perch content, subscribed. Merry Christmas!
Nice

Alex is great!
Nice session! I managed to get a 1.1kg perch(europe) this weekend! that was such a great fight!
Ya know whats cheaper & tougher than those worms? Chicken skin. theyll pik pik pik they'll never get it off the hook
Try spikes (maggots) stay on bettet
We agree spikes do stay on much better. All the gas station had was wax worms 🤷🏻♂️
Question how those fish survive when they're brought up from 30ft of water?
We spent most of the day between 20-28 feet. Most of the fish didn’t show any signs of barotrauma. We did catch a few perch and one white bass that had barotrauma that we did keep and didn’t show.

@@JasonMitchellOutdoors thanks for the reply. We do fish out there as well and the signs are evident. Just wondered.

Let us know when you come out. You can stay right at the shop.
Great video's I love those under the ice shots of those fish!
never caught perch in those jumbo size, this give me the itch for some nice jumbo
I wouldn't mind fishing with jmo would be a nice time..
We use to have perch here in ohio that would double those size perch.not anymore, i cant remember the last time i saw a jumbo
Perch and crappies!!🍾
Do devil's and cascade jumbo perch fish somewhat the same?
Not really. Big difference is that Cascade is a reservoir so the structure is different. Cascade perch are much more aggressive and we fished much higher off the bottom.
How much snow was on the ice? We have a trip booked for next week.
There is over twenty inches now but it is drifting and blowing around so some places less and other places, the snow is hard. There are a few roads getting plowed but you might want to bring tracks if you have them.
I'm planning a trip to Devils Lake, and this was all great information. Thanks for doing what you do Jason!
We appreciate you watching.
JMO has accommodations. They are really nice and worth it. Check out his website for more info. Good luck on DL it’s a banger of a lake.
How many year cycle do the perch go down and how long do they increase
Not very simple, these fish grow fast but don’t live past six years usually. You need big year classes of fish coming in but predation can have a big impact. Pike numbers really seem down and I believe that is helping the perch.
@@JasonMitchellOutdoors thank you
Could you put a link to the rod in comments? I’m on Scheels website but I’m not sure if the newest rod has the 4” spring at the end.

@@JasonMitchellOutdoors thanks! How’s uncle Dave doing out there? Haha
Lk145...amazing spot
Cycles fir sure. Sometimes very shallow
Where on devils lake we’re you
Main Lake by the Towers
I like the fact Jason isn’t using forward facing sonar like everyone else on TH-cam lol
Not many of us can travel like that to get to the remote fish(areas)!
Maybe it's time for lowrance livesight since you have lowrance sponsorship. It'll cut your search time tremendously
