“Before underwater cameras, I used to think that certain weed-beds held bass, and others had the panfish I was after. Careful study and lots of on-ice viewing showed that most often, the best weeds and weedbeds held both, but few panfish roam edges or openings in the presence of predators. Two-feet can be too far if you’re trying to get a bull gill to come from cover and eat. Punch a hole right on top of them, where they don’t have to leave the safety of cover, and you can pluck them from where you never thought they existed.”

Battery Checking Season & Best Battery Replacement Options
The dog days of summer and that’s your green light to grab your MarCum flasher or digital system from the garage and give it a once over and top off the battery. The first step in your pre-season routine should be checking your batteries. Most flasher failures on the ice are caused by a bad battery, so now’s the time to inspect your MarCum’s power source. “You could be kicking yourself later if you don’t take a minute to check everything out now,” says MarCum Pro-Staffer, Joel Nelson. “Nothing will wreck a good day of fishing faster than a bad battery, because there’s nothing you can do about it out on the ice."
Summer Crappie Craze: Strategies for Finding and Catching Slabs
Summer Crappie Craze: Strategies for Finding and Catching Slabs While bass are the nation’s most popular fish species, panfish, and crappies in particular, also find themselves high on the priority level for many anglers – and for good reason. Not only do they make great table fare, they also provide fast paced action. Crappies are […]
EARLIEST VS. EARLY ICE FOR PANFISH
Earliest vs. Early Ice for Panfish Deer season is nearly behind most of us, and thoughts of ice fishing get the blood flowing. You know the days; just a few inches of clear, black ice with sunfish twirling below and to the sides of the hole as you extract them from hungry schools off the edge […]
MN Fishing Opener Tactics
At long last, the walleye opener is upon us. After any winter most anglers are more than fired up to be able to hit open water once again and catch a few marble eyes. When winter extends itself into spring, then rest assured that the water will be cold and walleyes may still be spawning on lakes throughout the great state of Minnesota.
Getting Your Boat Ready for Open Water
After a long winter, there is nothing like the unbridled anticipation of hitting the open water once again. Spring and summer is a special time of the year and soaking up the sun on the water is the best way to recharge the body and soul. The last thing you want to have is maintenance issues going to or on the water. Be sure to follow these quick tips to ensure a greater chance at a fun-filled day on the water.
The Offseason: Storing Your Ice Fishing Gear
Whether you’re ready for it or not, the ice season is coming to an end sooner than later. For many of us anglers, it was an odd season riddled with less-than-ideal conditions – including lack of ice and excess amounts of snow and ice. With snow melt in full force and deteriorating ice conditions, we can’t help but think of what’s coming next.
How to Target Late Ice Walleyes
We’re nearing the end of walleye season in MN, and things have gotten a bit tougher. Snow is deep and ice is thick(er), and the amount of available light at depth has been cut dramatically. Your early season haunts are likely nowhere near where you are ice fishing now, and at this point, it’s more about just getting bites rather than talking about how many you’re catching.
