I have just recently joined your page and I must say I'm very impressed. Your videos are very informational, educational and entertaining. Keep up the good work!
I agree with Sam sometimes it's better to leave things alone. Especially with a dead stick. I see a lot of people grab the dead stick when a fish is coming in and start moving the bait. The fish was interested already without the fisherman doing anything. Often sees this spooks them, obviously not always.
My favourite thing about your videos is knowing that they are filmed close(ish) to home, unlike the content from my favourite American TH-camrs. Can't wait for the restrictions to end in ON so that I can start fishing in places other than London and the surrounding area. I think a trip or two to LOTW with the kids is in order in the near future!
Frank's and fish goes together like peas and carrots. You should roll the fillets in Frank's then batter them and top it off with some club house garlic plus seasoning. Dumb and Dumber is a classic!
You know you're a fishing beast when you say something like this, "We did it! 24hr fishathon. I mean it's not complete I'm going to fish for a bit yet." 🤘
Watching your fishing exploits is fun! I live in a place with a major river and dam so we have open water all winter long yay! I used to love icefishing when I lived in Minnesota but once I moved back to South Dakota and discovered how to catch winter walleyes with big crankbaits I gave up icefishing completely! I cast in blizzards and negative windchill nights and catch the biggest fattest wallies I'm Jan and Feb! I am on FB if you wanna see
I've had a lot of late night drives through northern Michigan and the upper peninsula. My go-to is always sunflower seeds to keep me awake. Might be tough to eat those and film, but if you're ever in a similar stay awake situation you could try those out as well! Might be better than 3 energy drinks within 6 hours lol
Booked with Jayden for this coming week I’m so excited I think I get to stay in the new hut though :) watched this video at least 10 times and shared it so many more showing people where I’m going can’t wait!!!
To keep rod from going in, if you put your dead stick on a pale or milk crate you can put a short bungee cord on it and tuck the back part of the handle under it. This will keep only being pulled down and less likely to be pulled forward and in. This also still allows it to be quickly retrieved to pull the fish up.
Hey Jay, awesome video. I really enjoy your content. Was wondering what that inverter box was that you had your phone plugged into at the end? Looked handy.
now thats a ice fishing rod those are the ones I like I have a old 10 year old ice fishing rod that is a UL but still has some thickness to it an is 38 inches an always had a good action an had enough stiffness to crank in some big bass an crappie.
Hey Jay, I really want to get started in ice fishing and on a budget. What do recommend for a flasher? What about gear such as an auger and rod & reel combos? I’m thinking about the drill adapter augers. Btw great videos!
All you gotta do is lay your reel on the bucket over and flip the bucket handle over the reel resting on the rod in front of the small cork handle and this will keep the rod from being pulling in the ice hole
Nice looking hut im sure if you spent the week there or hole hopped you'd have to have find some better fishing.. Cheap flights there too from Toronto.. Cool vid Jay!
You crazy, crazy young person, you!! However, well done on the execution and my, but that Ice Castle certainly looks the business!!! You know, given my age, and I'm a widower with a few cats,...I could happily live in a place like that!! Just need to build a platform around it so it floats, maybe put a solar system, and generator on the roof, build a transom to attach a tiller outboard to move it from place to place,....man that's like my entire retirement dream, aside from hunting season,...details, details...
I've worked a 10 gotten off stayed up was asked to go ice fishing waited 6 hrs to go out finally went out for another 8ish didn't go to bed then went out the next morning and in total was awake for around 48 hrs. I've also done the same thing but gone to the river for salmon and steelhead and its way easier being able to move around then sit still. Its defiantly hard to do it by yourself and ice fishing without moving around to stay on a good bite is probably the hardest.
@@JaySiemens hope you catch lot's this summer.. stay safe out on the lake jay.. if you come towards Thompson, Mb again... hit me up, ill show you some great Manitoban fishin
At 29:35 when you were all delirious and wondering "what am I looking at?", don't you think that was a burbot? Sure looked pretty snaky the way it was moving....
Deadstick trick to keep rod from going into the hole. place rubber band on handle and open bail and loop line between handle and rubber band. Never lost a rod in over 20 years.
Man. We just fished an ice tournament and I was up for 35 hours before I even took a nap. 4 inches of ice a heater and a cot in the shack. We were absolutely beat. And I was on the ice again literally 12 hours later. Step up your game bro 😂. Just kidding. Was a good video. Can't wait to catch some big eyes through the ice this year.
Truly the most underrated TH-camr ever!! Keep up there great work
Wow thanks!
As someone who works nightshifts I can't thank you enough for uploading content regularly!!!
I do my best!
I can't get enough of ur channel. I get so excited to fish whenever I see an episode. Thanks for inspiring me!!
Great to hear! Thanks for watching!
I have just recently joined your page and I must say I'm very impressed. Your videos are very informational, educational and entertaining. Keep up the good work!
Awesome, thank you!
So close to 70k!! Your growing fast. I can see 100k in the future
Thats the goal!
Always a good reason to get home ASAP from the office!
School can wait 😂
Fr😂😂😂i'm in the same boat
@@dantesrodriguez5467 hahaha
Agreed. 😂
Yes
Mike Honcho thats my game center name and we got the same subscriptions
Oh! You are in the ice castle! I love how you are catching those walleyes! Soon 70k subs! Congrats!
Outstanding job Jay! Thanks for sharing your awesome adventures!
Thanks for watching them!
You might have to invest in 2 phones because it seems you catch a fish every time your on the phone
Haha that’s a good idea!
I was just thinking that
So nice to see someone else with the same fishing addiction. It's great to know we are not alone.
Hey I have been ice fishing for quite a while and I am not that good at it do you have any tips/tricks? Great work I love your video’s.
Awesome video! I’ve been waiting for it
Love these boujie ice hut vids!
You, chris and clayton should do a mini ice fishing tourney over a weekend!
Maybe one day!
The frostbite rods are back in stock!!
Royal flush a good rod for crappie?
I don’t get the appeal of taping the reel on the the medallion series rod?
@@ryantownsend5230 It saves weight
@@jaythojj1365 This is their video explaining the different rods th-cam.com/video/f-tTn3TcUzE/w-d-xo.html
That was awesome. Great video. Nice walleye. Cheers.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Currently watching this in a sleeper on Mille Lacs... living the good life! Great content as always Jay!
Nice!!

I love you jay. Cant get enough of your content!!
Thanks so much!!
Great video Jay! Im going to have to come back up north to find any ice to support that castle. Keep up the great fishing content!
Killer man. Geez your a machine. You should add your editing time in to the amount. It’s all part of the trip. Thanks man.
Appreciate the comment 🙏🙏🙏
Wow looks so fun! Keep on posting! Always so hyped when new video comes out👍 tightlines!
Thanks so much!
Great video! Love the ice castle, they are a blast you might need one! What happened to your uncut angling buddy? Is he lost?
He's a busy guy!
Is this guy on the phone that much or is it a coincidence! lol 😂 great vid jay!
i love fishing because of you
Now those look like some swanky slippers! Love the videos Jay! 🎣
Christmas present from my mom. Thanks so much for watching!
Nice castle Jaden... Jay super cool again
I felt tired just watching lol. Good job as always Jay!

You should look into a dangler for deadsticking. It takes up a little room but is super helpful to identify bites
The GIANT, DRAMATIC yawns made me laugh, every single time. I love this channel.
Thanks Jay. Good stuff, again!
Great video as always.
I appreciate that!
Frank's and fish goes together like peas and carrots. You should roll the fillets in Frank's then batter them and top it off with some club house garlic plus seasoning. Dumb and Dumber is a classic!

Just throwing this out there but Grumpy Old Men is top of the list ice fishing movies.
Absolutely! Was looking for this comment.

"Me being responsible".......With the smoke detector cover open behind you. lol! Good stuff Jay!
Jay it sure would be nice if Canada would open the boarder so we could come up & ice fish in one for sure!! I absolutely love ice fishing!!
Can't do anything about that!
Jay, that was painful 😖
I'm happy you recovered 😊
Me too!
Is that McD's coffee stickers on your phone? Glad I'm not the only one who does that. Great video Jay, really enjoyed it!
Yes they are!
yea its hard to leave the castle to go drilling around, gotta keep drilling to find em. great videos
You got that right!
This is way better then working.
This is amazing I think I need to move north in the winter !

Dakota Lithium
Awesome video as always Jay. I will definitely be contacting JS for a possible booking.
Do it!
That Whitetail Warrior movie is so OG hahaha love it
Opener of walleye on the lower scugog I usually do a 24 hour fish.
You, Clayton or Aaron should sell Frostbit gear here in Canada, be way more convenient and cost effective to shop for.
It ships from Canada
@@JaySiemens does it I must have the us web site I just got a few thing and had to pay the exchange. Thanks jay
Gee when will you take me out fishing I'm going nuts watching your videos great job let her roll Jay . I Love ice fishing myself
Should do a homemade lure challenge. I made some from old stainless steel spoons and caught a few. Really cool feeling
Great idea! Thanks for following along.
Well done Jay ahah 3 energy drinks plus that 5h shot. Your body certainly didnt like you the next 24h ahaha
You are my favorite TH-camr 🦈🐟
so uh hey Jay when can I come for an ice fishing trip?
now thats a ice fishing rod those are the ones I like I have a old 10 year old ice fishing rod that is a UL but still has some thickness to it an is 38 inches an always had a good action an had enough stiffness to crank in some big bass an crappie.
Hey Jay . kidnap Aaron and take him fishing. Make sure he's all good. Be good to see the boys back together.
24 hours on the ice but only a 35 minute video? Suspicious! Jk, love the vids bud!
Hey Jay, I really want to get started in ice fishing and on a budget. What do recommend for a flasher? What about gear such as an auger and rod & reel combos? I’m thinking about the drill adapter augers. Btw great videos!
Helix 5 or 7 ice, you can't go wrong with either!
Check out the Striker 4. Great option for the price point.
do a 48 hour
Liked it before I even watched it 👍🏻
Jay you need two buy an ice castle I have one and it’s awesome
Hour 20, i can feel the heart palpitations. thats how you know youre still alive!
Whammy buddy, ayo way 2 go
Do more of these pleae
All you gotta do is lay your reel on the bucket over and flip the bucket handle over the reel resting on the rod in front of the small cork handle and this will keep the rod from being pulling in the ice hole
i love jay.
Oh man ! Ya got me with the smoke alarm lol
Fun stuff! Though it would have been awesome if you would have had Aaron or Clayton join you for the fishathon
Maybe a virtual one someday! Thanks for watching!
Is there a slot size where your fishing and that’s why you don’t keep the big walleye
Big walleyes are breeders. Small ones are better eaters
Nice looking hut im sure if you spent the week there or hole hopped you'd have to have find some better fishing.. Cheap flights there too from Toronto.. Cool vid Jay!
Thanks!

We brought our cats with us this year lol
Can you do a low tech ice fishing video? Everything makes me feel like I NEED all these expensive sonars.
I did last year!
Great Video jay!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching it!
I don’t know that I have ever seen you keep a sauger. Do you not eat them?
Not usually!

This is legit my dream
Great video!, you are a fishing warrior
Thanks so much for watching!
Awesome video, thanks for sharing. What is the difference between frostbite rods Medallion or Burnt they have both kinds, ie dipstick. Thanks
Fun fact. I make those snowplows. Straight from iron mountain, Michigan
Very cool!
Awsome video man keep it up
Thanks!!
I bet that fish was a sturgeon they are really funny fishing when you see them on the units
I am so jealous I have wanted to buy a ice casual for so long
At 29:35 when you were all delirious and wondering "what am I looking at?", don't you think that was a burbot? Sure looked pretty snaky the way it was moving....
I''ve already gone to their website and saved it. 24 hour drive from Ottawa...but you can fly now super cheap.
You'll have a blast!
Deadstick trick to keep rod from going into the hole. place rubber band on handle and open bail and loop line between handle and rubber band. Never lost a rod in over 20 years.
Good to know!
All those energy drinks can be hard on the heart. Trust me, I'm an AFIB'er.
You have a laundry fairy too?😂
Yes its the best
How does Jayden get the smell out of the ice castle when your done cooking? Lol. Great video 👍
He does a great job cleaning!
You should have brought THE Samcam. You did kept it on for 25 hours .
She needs her sleep haha
@@JaySiemens i understand , but what did you keep on for 25 hours straight?
Man. We just fished an ice tournament and I was up for 35 hours before I even took a nap. 4 inches of ice a heater and a cot in the shack. We were absolutely beat. And I was on the ice again literally 12 hours later. Step up your game bro 😂. Just kidding. Was a good video. Can't wait to catch some big eyes through the ice this year.
Awesome!
