Thanks for this. My buddy and I are local in NH lakes and fish Winni all the time, but have had very little luck with Lakers since a lot of tips and tricks are done in much diff bodies of water. So we appreciate all the great info and will try them out this year. Cheers!

@BendItFishing 7 месяцев назад

You are very welcome! This video works on all inland Lakers in NH, VT and Maine

@sh8dyj 7 месяцев назад

Thank you! We ordered your Winni box as well. One thing that surprised us was how much smaller your shads were than the ones we were using before. (We primarily stuck to 3/3.5in plastics). And we also fished mostly drop offs. Now just got to go out and find the right spots :) @@BendItFishing

@BendItFishing 7 месяцев назад

2 inch is where it's at! Especially during ice fishing season! I'll cut them in half sometimes they can be so finicky. Try fishing flats as well

@BendItFishing 7 месяцев назад

You are welcome!

@capturehishonor9292 Год назад

A man who some consider the best ice fisherman in Canada swears by leaving jigging lures suspended in mid water column. Water currents move the lure. He says he catches more togue this way than actively jigging with and without bait.

@glennsilva5915 2 года назад

Josh excellent video love the techniques I’ll be using them for sure!

@BendItFishing 9 месяцев назад

@maartendenhartog1580 Год назад

The drop-offs are one of the best places to fish that's where the big trout hang they don't like to like spend energy so they like to disco vertical up and down in the water column for food so they don't have to move

@johng4551 2 года назад

I'll definitely be buying some of those plastics from you not sure if I'll be back up there this season but I'll definitely buy some next year, just a question though do you sell the jig heads as well?

@BendItFishing 2 года назад

I do!

@capturehishonor9292 Год назад

About a century ago a 42 and 48-pound lake trout were caught ice fishing in 4 feet of water near the shore of the side of a point in a Maine lake. They were caught with dead bait on alders. Though not officially weighted, they were hung in the 5 feet bay window of the town barbershop. I hooked a togue that I lost after 1 1/2 hours of fighting not far from there in 70 feet of water. I estimate it between 40 and 50 pounds. The big ones are out there. But very, very few bother or even know how to catch the true giant (a 5-pound laker is NOT a giant, as I see frequently on the Tube).

@BendItFishing Год назад

Ya 5 pounds is not a giant that's a long fight with a laker

@bradleycalef6249 2 года назад

Regarding the photo of the inside turn, where exactly are you focusing. I typically fish the humps and want to get more experience with the turns and I can see that there will be some of the same issues as fishing a sharp drop off, so whats the best plan. Thanks again!

@BendItFishing 2 года назад

I start just inside the two points if you were to draw a line, if there's no fish I work my way in

@siraltitude76 2 года назад

never heard of the reverse auger trick, but i'll try anything once!

@BendItFishing 2 года назад

It works trust me!

@BendItFishing 6 месяцев назад

Sometimes but just a tiny bit

@dabfabbrooks5340 2 года назад

I have noticed I catch a lot less fish when someone is with me jigging in the same shack. Fish will start to chase one then the other and then just give up. But when I’m alone they seam to chase the one jig a lot more.

@BendItFishing 2 года назад

Happens to me as well the laker gets confused on which is easier to get. Best thing you can do is take turns, and have your buddy reel out of the way or go to bottom.

@yves956 2 года назад

Me and my son fish alot togeter and happen all the time as sonn some one out of the tent they seem to be chassing alot more and hook more to glade im note the only one notice that

@BendItFishing 2 года назад

For sure! Communication is key and taking turns

@apexoutdooradventuresa.o.a2574 Год назад

This is fact! Buddy and I were in same shack he was jigging I was dead sticking (making food) Laker engaged his bait followed, chased, and then smashed the dead stick. Might be worth a shot?

@capturehishonor9292 Год назад

Have the second fisherman jig at a different depth or deadline fish with a huge sucker.

@XxFlAmInGnInJaSxX 6 месяцев назад

Caught a 29 incher in 6 feet at night fishing for cusk on sebago

@BendItFishing 6 месяцев назад

I bet!

@fishingadventures8004 5 месяцев назад

It’s tough without a sonar and when the lake is a bowl with no hump’s, at that point would you still target them deep or fish a ledge or a cove the lake is loaded with smelt that are on shore but my guess is they move deeper when the sun comes up managed to get 1 this morning but would like to find where they’re all at lol

@BendItFishing 5 месяцев назад

I would setup right outside the bait or any sort of cove if the lake is a bowl. Also look at the Garmin striker castable sonar it's like 100 bucks for a sonar and syncs to your phone

@fishingadventures8004 5 месяцев назад

@@BendItFishing thanks man I was researching those but everyone says the garmin striker 4 is the better option and about the same price but I really like the view on the phone sync sonar a lot better

@BendItFishing 5 месяцев назад

I'm sure the striker 4 is a little better if you have thick ice

@@BendItFishing We catch Lake Trout on our Brook Trout set super shallow around 1-3 foot deep of water right under the surface. They roam.

That's awesome!! I'm going to try and sight fish for them this year! If you plan on going to Sebago this year I'd love to collaborate with you!!

@JoeHollandFishing Год назад

@@BendItFishing cool, I usually do Sebago at least once a season. Mostly from 140-190 feet deep. It's been much tougher since they changed their management goals and basically are killing it off. would be a fun one though.

@dubskiiiN 2 года назад

so you run the auger in reverse up and down after the hole is drilled ??

@BendItFishing 2 года назад

Usually drilling a hole calls them in. But if I don't see a fish I'll do the reverse trick

@whiteyfisk9769 7 месяцев назад

Im new to ice fishing for lakers, ive always been a pike and rainbow guy. Im finding the lakers and have tons of them on my graph checking out of my lures and dead bait, but they never ever bite. Im dead sticking, jigging, sppons, jigs, jigging rap, white tubes....every thing i can think of to trigger a strike and they just follow it and never hit. Idk what im doing wrong.

@BendItFishing 7 месяцев назад

Sounds like me for the first year targeting Lakers. Lakers can get extremely picky about what they eat. What does your lake have for bait fish?

@whiteyfisk9769 7 месяцев назад

@@BendItFishing It is, i finally bought electronics this year just for lakers and kokanee. Lots of yellow perch, fat head minnows, suckers, pike minnow.

@BendItFishing 7 месяцев назад

I would try really tiny baits like I sell a 2 inch swim bait with a 1/4 ounce jig. Also a long leader like 12 ft

@whiteyfisk9769 7 месяцев назад

@@BendItFishing thank you, ill give both of those tips a try. I havent been using a leader at all, just 20lb braid.

@eduffy4937 6 месяцев назад

Sounds like you need to reel faster to play keep away. They'll easily close in on something being reeled up on a 2500 sized reel at a pretty brisk pace. When you get a follow, reel and keep reeling. If they follow and don't eat, gradually increase your retrieve speed. Usually they'll take.

@austyntuck2253 Год назад

Good tips man! Clean thats flasher screen up though lol way too much interference going on, you should only see your bait and bottom not a million flickering lines lol

Dude pen smell are like a lot smaller than what you said and the smell can be a lot bigger than that..Jack smelt

@BendItFishing Год назад

ya but there are more smaller smelt then bigger smelt

@maartendenhartog1580 Год назад

If you don't like fishing drop off because you can't use your phone I don't use sonar like that's where the big trout hang out so they can just go vertical up and down for food rather than scavenger
