These videos are very helpful, I don’t have a lot of time to scout and move around with 4 kids so any video that helps me narrow down we’re to go is extremely helpful. Thanks for the great tips!
Hey TJ, just watching this video back after fishing more shoreline breaks this early ice season. Thanks for the tip, absolutely crushed them! More of an inside turn guy myself but it was nice to target some new structure. Sitting off the weedline where it breaks flat to 15 feet was dynamite for me 🧨
Inside turns have been on of my favorites since I was young! I remember fishing structure on LOW and my dad would always point those out to me on the handheld GPS!
I mean couldn’t of done a better dam job on a first ice walleye video , 50 mph winds plus today here jus watching an waiting … an waiting for this ice to get here !!!! Can tell your a teacher bc you do an awsome job of breakin down an explaining what why where jus awsome man seriously
@@tjsguideservice lake Champlain Plattsburgh New York would love to 1 day show yah what we’ve been getting into here since you posted those beast walleye on the swimbait back in fall …. Kinda weird got a job with the school system right around the time I found your videos
We would love more info videos. One thing I would love is artificial only ice fishing specifically for Pike. Something not done often but can be done effectively
@@tjsguideservice , Not on Simcoe , but on smaller lakes we use Vibratos , spoons and puppet minnow, lipless baits like duo realis G-fix. They respond well to vibrations. On Simcoe , Whitefish,Lakers,Burbot and Perch are the main targets. We have a ton of Gobies and these predators get big munching on gobies. The whitefish are so thick that their head looks like a peanut. I am a no bait/artificial only angler. I dress my lures like the jigging rap , the treble is replaced with a single hook dressed with marabou which pulsates even when the lure is not moving, been a great trigger for panfish when they are -ve
Appreciate the feedback! It is definitely noted, I love mapping videos myself. So much to learn! Hoping to do a bait breakdown here soon for early ice. Appreciate you!
Been fishing for 45 years ...i must say ive learned a lot of great tips from your vids...its too bad we live in different ends of the country (i in western Canadian rockies) because i would love to go fishing with you... Dont change a thing...your vids are great...keep doing what your doing...IT WORKS!!!! From my wet/thawing/freezing (mother nature cant make up her mind) igloo on the mountain in grande cache alberta Canada...D
Great info on the locations to check! The saddles are often overlooked but can have crazy action at times! I might have to try some of these locations year!
Another great video Tj! Towards the end when you show the water temp overlay, one of the lakes you picked is the lake I grew up on and spend most of my time fishing! Any spots you'd try?! 😂😂
Thanks for the content! I like informative videos. I appreciate knowledge over entertainment. It would be good content to share how you choose your exact location or depth to fish. Also, how you choose daytime spots and nighttime spots. One spot I like is to find a dip in the main weed line and set up right on it. It seems to hold walleyes in the evening. After dark, they’re gone and I can’t seem to figure out where to transition to to find a night bite. Again, thanks for the info!
In regard to walleyes, shallow water is intimidating. I have a tendency to stay out of the weeds and lean deep over shallow. I do this because shallow water seems like no man’s land like super deep water basins do. I also haven’t had positive experiences fishing it for walleyes. I mostly find panfish and pike. But, consistently finding walleyes in shallow water is something I want to get better at, and seems to be over looked by most. I would love to see more content on this in the future.
Will definitely do more content like this! Here’s a vid from last year fishing shallow weeds. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--ia21nybrV0.htmlsi=eXE46OelV7FAhiBB
We’re you looking for the one on sturdy tire specifically? Thanks for the reminder! I’ll add it to the description. Here is the link if that’s the one you’re talking about. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0jhhGvDUFRE.htmlsi=12Z-KOuE-GBYxB3X
tj, I see you list the klondike 2 boots. Been think about ordering some can you tellme if they run turn to size? How well do they work when there is a little snow cover on nice clear smooth icem?
I have found them to be fairly true to size. My Yukons were a little tighter to start but we’re about perfect once I worked them in. I just got the Klondikes and they seem to fit about right. I haven’t actually had a chance to use them on the ice, but I am really looking forward to checking them out!
@tjsguideservice I plan to oder some tomorrow on a black Friday special. I think they will be wonderful not having to take off cleats all the time thanks so much for the reply. thanks jbillies
