Great video but I hope the fish survived. Long fight and the fish was not handled well afterwards.

Very cool seeing the big tiger through very clear ice.

Not very thick ice! Just got back from ice fishing in Wisconsin. 8-10" of ice already and getting thicker daily.
Nice fish though.

We may only see what we look for.

I was just thinking Marsh may be iced over soon. Just need some big live bait. ;D

If the ice is there, maybe a club ice fishing outing in Feb. at The Marsh???

Hey,

That is a neat video with the ice being that clear and seeing the fish so clearly.
Does anyone have a source for good bait? I've been looking and the best I've been able to find are so called "pike" minnows, which are basically 3 to 4 inch shiners. There has got to be someone who sells good 6 to 9 inch suckers. Any information would be appreciated.

I guess I don't get it. Would someone explain this to me?
Why is it against our clubs policy to advocate the use of live bait in the summer time, but it's ok for ice fishing?

Barry,

I personally don't live bait fish for muskies, but as a club we don't frown apon it unless it is done incorrectly. Live bait fishing when done correctly with a quick strike rig is very effective in some situations.. also when done correctly it can do less damage them catching a fish with three treble baits.

Hey Lehigh, Outalanuee is not frozen at all. Only Peters Creek is, it has about 4". It's going to take a few more days to get skin ice. Later on

Barry,
It's ironic that you bring this up ( live bait fishing) now. Don't know if you saw or not, but we as a club will be writing a more "muskie friendly" version of live bait fishing for the State. If you would like to help in putting this together or have any suggestions, they would be welcomed.

On a side note, that was pretty awesome seeing that Tiger thru the ice! Unbelievable! And what about that goober with the pole... :'(

Sometimes you've got to "jiggle' it, and sometimes you've got to give it one big
"jerk"

It is a cool video! If you want to ice fish, I have plenty of ice up here. And is it our own Piney who's got a picture in the MI 2010 calendar?!?!
