Early Ice Perch Frenzy with Marcum Pursuit HD L 

These videos are great because you can notice even the smallest pattern in the fish like how they check out the jig and what movement draws a better strike because in the summer when you're fishing blind you don't think about them being right there and just watching your life/jig. You think when you cast and reel (or drop and jig) that when a fish noticeses it that instantly attacks it to strike. You aren't thinking that they are hanging out down there around the lure watching it until it makes that certain movement that triggers them strike. Of coarse some do straight out attack it on sight buy maybe because they were hungry and feeding or maybe it's defending it's nest (usually in the spring/summer) so by being able to watch their behavior can teach the little tricks how to tempt a fish to strike when it wasn't that interested to eat. One thing I do know and this video backs it up is that sometimes you can fish for an hour without a single strike and then you switch lures and just that fast it makes an instant difference and you'll catch something within a couple of casts which clearly showed fish are there they just didn't that first lure for whatever reason. And in the video you dropped the other big and caught that fish that wouldn't attack your first one. What was also neat to see was that pike ignore it, hang out perfectly still for a minute, swim away then turn around and attack it? I wonder if it actually was gonna attack it but realized maybe if it freezes for a minute maybe some other fish would come after it and the pike would attack that fish thus getting a bigger meal??? Or maybe in the background another pike showed up and it decided it had to eat it before the other pike does? Hmmm who knows I'm curious about something. Being you're fishing there in the winter I can assume you probably fish in the summer also. So what I'm curious about is during the summer do you scout out for holes or cuts in the bottom or look for structure and mark these areas so come winter you have a good idea where to set up and drill your holes.

Underrated channel, you are my favorite fishing youtuber

Lol that perch in the back caught a wild shiner epic

Hello there ! I'm in France, we have nothing to do with ice fishing here but I enjoy each one of your videos, I find it almost poetic.. Bravo !!

Gotta love the early ice.

Another great video, thanks for taking me fishing!

Very cool video! The subsurface footage is awesome. Perch get scarce when Mr. Pike shows up 😄……. Thank you Bryan!!! 👍🎣

What a fun day on the ice. Makes me miss it

Love the bucket and foam ball for the camera. Great video btw.

Very Cool to be able to see how the fish react to the motions of your jigging ! I was hoping to see some walleye, but the pike was nice ! In Lake Michigan, we used to catch 16 inch lake perch on a regular basis ! Lake Perch are my number one favorite fish to eat !!! I' Subscribing to see more !

You’re videos are great. Simple, no frills, actual excitement and please don’t change! Also I’d buy a “let’s get back down there” sweater! Just sayin

At 2:47 look at the flo pink jig head inside that bluegills mouth glowing thru his closed mouth. High vis for sure. Thanks Bryan for all your videos. Great job Bro.

Those fish cone flying in and flying up

Great video. Early ice & perch frenzy.

Love the videos man keep em coming

Those were baby walleyes

Nice,I love the camera action. Great video as always . Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and tight lines.

Thanks for all the videos, I will say in my neck of the woods (Erie Pa) a jumbo perch is considered 14”-17” and the average keeper is around 10”

That time again let's go buddy

Thanks for sharing 👍

Thanks great video

Awesome underwater footage as always!!

keep the amazing uploads coming man! You made my day again!

Excellent video very easy to follow and understand. I ice fish the lakes in Nothern Utah and Southern Idaho these lakes are usually snow covered during ice season. The clear ice provides more light for the camera. What is the picture clarity in dark water? I am considering investing in a Marcum camera.

Holy crap. That must be a whole 3 inches of ice.

Honestly ... youre the best ice fishing RU-vid out right now in my opinion ... always love your ice season videos others are so bleh

Live the camera mount bucket/styrofoam ball. Simplest solutions are the best sometimes...

I wish I could do ice fishing just once I’d be hooked then though. Great video waiting on the next one GOD BLESS

Great Video

hey man love the marcum

At 5:55 that is a jumbo that destroyed the minnow on the ground!! Another super nice fishing session Bryan, very cool underwater footages!! Too bad that pike cut your line!

I watched this with delight…but a pike on a tiny jig ? no no no….it ain’t gonna happen..😂

That Pike wanted a decent size perch, good video tho

Awesome video man, but I do have a question, do you have a flasher? If your outside maybe you should try hole hopping.

Try minnows for perch. Hook them in the mouth pinch off the tail, gold crappie hook, caught 100s like that in the Mississippi pool 13. 👍👍

I'm considering buying a underwater camera for ice fishing. We fish clearer water at Leech Lake in a large shack. Will this camera be able to see jigs and fish 12 feet away?

Damn that is so cool, Im in Alberta (right above you) and we were hit with some cold temps but i didn't know it was safe at 4" I usually wait till 6ish. Nice fishing my dude

Such lite line now fish has the hoke in it for a long time increase poundage by 6 lbs

If those are jumbo the ones we catch are whales then. Average 12" - 13"+

Hey you are the coolest ice fishing RU-vidr.Can I ask what is the best ice fishing lure for Northern?

Bryan, which do you prefer. The Aqua View or the Marcom?

What lake was this?

I’d really like to catch a pike but I don’t know how to unhook it

You on the south end of lake ? Millie lilacs

where i can buy this camera?

That ice less then three fish thick

Do you do this for a living or something else

U ever catch any sharks?

Wth. All those perch are pretty small

Why you release those fish?

Where are you? I’m in Ohio. Can I come out?

4” of ice. 😅

Why you harm fishes, if you don't want??

Dude the DIY tri pod is amazing good shit man
