Just got into fishing a few years ago and live in northern MN myself. Watching this video to see how it goes. Its pretty damn funny that my accent would come back within 10 minutes of talking with you guys though lol. Thanks for the video! I'll have to give it a go for the first time this winter.
Nice bonus fish!!!
That sturgeon was awesome!!!!
LOTW is amazing look forward to fishing it every year!
You know you're one best channels on TH-cam when you pull out sturgeon from the ice!!!
I’m here for the sturgeon
Off the chart video, you guys should start a stand up fishing comedy show that sturgeon fight was hilarious...I’m in trouble now, I spilled coffee on the just washed and ironed table cloth while laughing at your side comedy!! Educational as always.....
You guys should try fishing out of the west side of the lake, go straight out of warroad about 3/4 of a mile and catch the fish that are coming out of the river after the shiner run in the warroad river As well as 5 mile reef, rudys reef, the two DNR reefs, whiskey flats and of course the basin. You will find that you catch more walleye the sauger, a larger average size, as well as more jumbo perch and big northern. The chances of sturgeon and big crappie exist just as well. Skip using jigging spoons altogether instead opting to use tungsten in the 5mm, 6mm, and 8mm sizes with a live chub hooked under the skin next to the dorsal fin with the hook coming out behind the dorsal. You will have increased hook ups, you will catch A Lot more fish then spoons, and you will get a lot nicer fish. Just a tip from a local that is also a guide on LOTW
Heck yeah!!! I am totally going to do this!!
Great surgeon on light gear
hey was just wondering where PJ was, great to see you! Had a great bite on Red this week too. Keep up the great work guys!
It's been a slow hard grind on my local walleye lake in Wyoming......so frustrating at times. Just have to keep grinding. It's weird because last winter was really good for early ice walleye on the same reservoir......
Wohoo!
As always great information.
They were not in shallow due to the dirty water. Not the cold front. Dirty water extended out to about 14 feet. Once you get out a little deeper the bite was steady.
Okoboji, Iowa video!
I don't usually fish too deep of water, but are those deeper basin walleyes able to release air from their swim bladders like a whitefish or laker?
What kind of boots are pj wearing. I'm looking for warmer toes myself. Mr. Cold toes.
Bunny boots
We call'em "Bunny Boots" like a military grade of boot, but can find them on Amazon.
Fleet farm 60 bucks
I saw u guys out on the ice today in south dakota (don't wanna give the spot away) was wondering if you guys caught em and what u guys used. Thanks
We caught a lot of fish with most of them in the 13-18 inch range with a few in the 20-24" range as well. Most came on spoons, Orange or chartreuse tinglers or tumblers in 1/8 oz tipped with red spikes.
No I don’t want anything but thanks for the reply
Since we don't have walleye or sauger where I live my question is what is the difference between the species?? They look pretty much the same. Legitimate question.
The sauger is a cousin of the walleye. Saugers have black spots on their dorsal fin and they lack the white patch on their tail that a walleye would have. Also slight color variations.
Also walleye are in general a lot larger
Thanks you guys I appreciate the info!!! There has been rumor about walleye up north in my state but that's all it's been. No evidence yet. They would survive here for sure but our state is really protective of our natural resources so I doubt it would Happen. Grateful for them being protective of our state but I wouldn't mind having a new species of fish to catch and eat hahaha it's trout country where I live.
So these guys just go out to jig? No ice traps
Just got done fishing LOTW for 5 days. Sturgeon stop being fun after 20 minutes, then it turns into work.
They're one tough fish!
@@InDepthOutdoorsTV though it was a huge walleye at first, tons of bubbles, sore wrist... the sturgeon trifecta. Cool fighting a fish that may be older than I am though
@@traviskuntz7503 we always enjoy the tussle every time we're lucky enough to hook one. Some times we win. Most of the time we don't stand a chance. I hope the rest of your trip went well. 👍
@@InDepthOutdoorsTV incredible trip. My dad got his PB walleye and I got my first sturgeon. Toss in a few slot walleye, burbot and whitefish and it's always a good time.
@@traviskuntz7503 sounds fantastic! Congrats.
Should ice fish Wixom Lake Michigan known for big crappie an pike an eyes an then the Saginaw River is very well full of wallyeyes
Why do these guys not have garmin?
How cold was it out there?
It's usually like 30 degrees to 20 below
Well I was just out this last weekend and it was -23 when I woke up, coldest all year and at the time of video it is early so I’d say around 10-20
How are you guys liking the stikemaster suits? Im looking at pulling the trigger but wondering about size reference?
They're durable and warm. Definitely a good suit. For size reference Holst is 6'4" and 235 lbs. He wears XL bibs and 2XL jacket.
@@InDepthOutdoorsTV Thank you! I only have access to 2XL and dont think it'll fit. Im 5'8 and 260lbs. The 3XL is only 1.5 inches more in the chest so unfortunately, I dont think either would fit anyways.
I have a strike master suit and it is awesome. Best purchase I’ve ever made
Is there a limit on what u take
What landing did you guys launch at
I'm gonna guess morris point?
I guess Adrian's
Adrians
I live on lake of the woods
When PJ was fighting that sturgeon, Pat had a ice scoop in his hand, what brand is that?
Big dipper
Great skimmer. 2 upgrades I did with mine is I put a thick clear coat over the handle. For some reason the wood comes untreated. This allows the ruler to not wear off and protects the handle from water. Second thing is I filled in the two female threads with super glue then sprinkled backing powder on it. I think this works better then lock tite.
Thx Mat! Who makes the “Big Dipper?”
It looks like a Productive Alternatives® Dipper. Cabela's carries them.
@@pikehunter23750 that is correct.
What part of the lake are you guys on btw
South Shore outside of Pine Island.
@@InDepthOutdoorsTV thanks
James on vacation?
Yup, Pat was up to bat. James is back on the ice this week.
They fish for a living...they’re always on vacation....
I'm still waiting for James to do a throw back series on East Side Lake!
