Just a suggestion guys. This time of year post ice fishing videos. Post this video in the spring when pike is about to open. Love the show but there are many key things you guys are doing that is affecting your viewership.
On the out of season species deal, I think they need to draw a line on photos, simply because people take too long getting the trophy shots from many angles. I'm old enough to feel like an out of season fish just doesn't count anyway, so, the pics don't really matter. Ironically, you only get caught if you post the pic. And you only post the pic of you need the rest of social media to see. (Sort of what my account name refers to hahaha) As for the smallies and pike sharing areas in the spring, did you guys notice any sort of temperature difference that would give a hint as to where you're more likely to find one or the other? Last spring I noticed pre-spawn smallies were in slightly colder areas than the pike we found. Bugs hatching were the giveaway, and we started to realize that pike were in water above 40F and smallies were in cooler water. Being immediately after iceout everything was still pretty frigid
