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.
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
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.
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.
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!
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!
@@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
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
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!
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.
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
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.
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.
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...
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." 🤘
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....
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!
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
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!
Outstanding job Jay! Thanks for sharing your awesome adventures!
Thanks for watching them!
So close to 70k!! Your growing fast. I can see 100k in the future
Thats the goal!
Oh! You are in the ice castle! I love how you are catching those walleyes! Soon 70k subs! Congrats!
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
Always a good reason to get home ASAP from the office!
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!
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

Love these boujie ice hut vids!
You, chris and clayton should do a mini ice fishing tourney over a weekend!
Maybe one day!
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!
You should look into a dangler for deadsticking. It takes up a little room but is super helpful to identify bites
i love fishing because of you
I love you jay. Cant get enough of your content!!
Thanks so much!!
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!
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!
Nice castle Jaden... Jay super cool again
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 🙏🙏🙏
Congrats on 70K, Jay!
Thanks for watching and following along!!

Now those look like some swanky slippers! Love the videos Jay! 🎣
Christmas present from my mom. Thanks so much for watching!
So nice to see someone else with the same fishing addiction. It's great to know we are not alone.
Great video as always.
I appreciate that!
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.
Wow looks so fun! Keep on posting! Always so hyped when new video comes out👍 tightlines!
Thanks so much!
Just throwing this out there but Grumpy Old Men is top of the list ice fishing movies.
Absolutely! Was looking for this comment.
Currently watching this in a sleeper on Mille Lacs... living the good life! Great content as always Jay!

You got that right!

This is amazing I think I need to move north in the winter !

Liked it before I even watched it 👍🏻
Thanks Jay. Good stuff, again!
9:26 You got a bite buddy!
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
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
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
You are my favorite TH-camr 🦈🐟
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.

Great video!, you are a fishing warrior
Thanks so much for watching!
I felt tired just watching lol. Good job as always Jay!
That Whitetail Warrior movie is so OG hahaha love it

Helix 5 or 7 ice, you can't go wrong with either!
Check out the Striker 4. Great option for the price point.
"Me being responsible".......With the smoke detector cover open behind you. lol! Good stuff Jay!

This is way better then working.
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!
Great Video jay!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching it!
Jay you need two buy an ice castle I have one and it’s awesome
Jay, that was painful 😖
I'm happy you recovered 😊
Me too!
You out by horse island because I’ve seen that shack alot
Is this guy on the phone that much or is it a coincidence! lol 😂 great vid jay!
The GIANT, DRAMATIC yawns made me laugh, every single time. I love this channel.
I don’t know that I have ever seen you keep a sauger. Do you not eat them?
Not usually!
can you rent the livescope while being there? and you need a nintendo switch with mario kart during these times
Sorry I brought my own livescope!
Opener of walleye on the lower scugog I usually do a 24 hour fish.

That was minnow
Yeah sometimes just the minnow freaking out
Great video!

How does Jayden get the smell out of the ice castle when your done cooking? Lol. Great video 👍
He does a great job cleaning!
i love jay.
Whammy buddy, ayo way 2 go
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....
jay da man
Jay, what type of tripod do you use for the panoptix transducer pole?
What is that battery box that you were using when you were charging your phone?
Dakota Lithium
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!
Well done Jay ahah 3 energy drinks plus that 5h shot. Your body certainly didnt like you the next 24h ahaha
Awesome video, thanks for sharing. What is the difference between frostbite rods Medallion or Burnt they have both kinds, ie dipstick. Thanks
Woooo hoooo. Get'em.
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!
Fun fact. I make those snowplows. Straight from iron mountain, Michigan
Very cool!
Great video
What size of tungsten jig are you using?
Great video 👍
Thanks!!
Awesome video as always Jay. I will definitely be contacting JS for a possible booking.
Do it!
do a 48 hour
I am so jealous I have wanted to buy a ice casual for so long
I just ordered my 39 in ML!
Did you get a burnt or medallion series?
@@fioreboschi1471 Medallion, it was a belated Christmas gift
This is legit my dream
