Ice Fishing Tips

Ice Fishing Depth Sounder

If you ever need a quick depth sounder when ice-fishing, you can make one with a small bobber and bell sinker. Just attach the sinker to the bottom line retainer of the bobber and the hook or lure to the top retainer. This makes it easy to find the waters depth.

One of the most effective tools for any ice fisherman is the fantastic Evening Secret to swarming hungry fish to your spot. A great way to increase your ice catches.

Falling through the ice

If you are out with a buddy ice fishing and there is a possibility of breaking ice, make sure to stay at least 10 feet apart to spread out your weight. You should also each carry long poles; they can be used to straddle the hole to help you climb out. Make sure to have a poncho, waterproof matches, safety pins, bandages, knife, candles, bouillon cubes, and cocoa or soup. Put all of them in a watertight metal can which can be used to heat water over a candle in an emergency.

Freezing

If you are an ice fisherman and consistently have problems with your hole freezing up instead of pouring anti-freeze into the hole (which shuts down fishing action), use denatured alcohol. It is less expensive, has no odor or taste, and is available at any pharmacy.

Bait

If you are an ice fisherman (which 2 million people are in the U.S.), the following bait will bring you even more success.

For Bluegills use tiny ice spoons (1/32 to 1/80 of an ounce), ice flies or No. 10 or 12 gold hooks. Tip them with gall worms, crane fly larvae, mousies, mealworms, wax worms, or maggots. Fish the offering with a light tremble or quivering movement. Try levels from one to three feet off bottom, over depths o f10 to 20 feet. A murky or weedy bottom is best for them.

For crappies, use a Swedish Pimple jiggling spoon, Rapala ice fishing plug or live minnows fished on No. 2 to 6 hooks. Crappies can suspend at just about any depth, from a few feet below the ice to just off bottom, in water from five to 20 feet deep. Move often.

Yellow perch use the same baits as for crappies and bluegills. Also try jigging spoons sweetened with the eye from a freshly caught perch or a tiny strip of meat sliced from a perch or bluegill.

Trout shoal areas, the mouths of inlets, and points have produced the most rainbows, browns and brookies through the ice. You can catch them on about every kind of bait or lure you can think of. Wet flies and nymphs with a sp lit-shot crimped a foot above for weight are good, as are minnows, spinners, jigging spoons and ice rapalas.

Pickerel, Pike, Muskies live minnows or dead ones rigged to hang horizontally in the water are the best producers. Tip-ups allow you to spread your baits over a wide area in weedy coves and on points where these predators rove under the frozen lakes surface searching for prey.

Walleyes reefs, points, inlets and outlets are good spots for ice walleyes. Live minnows, jigging Rapalas, Swedish Pimples, Hopkins and Gay Blades are consistent producers.Ice Fishing Depth Sounder

Fishing for Fortunes. Scam!

Spelt phishing, but pronounced as above, this despicable act is an effort to batter your bankroll or commandeer your cash.
To put it simply, you can get emails from account administrators, which strongly urge you to update details attached to that account.
The issue, though, is the pretence of such mail.

You may not even have such an account as referenced.
It doesnt come from the account provider.
It can use false S.S.L. references, to present an illusion of trust and security.
It can prompt for immediate action on your part, alleging false log-ins by persons unknown, and from countries unknown. If action is not taken, they can impress on you, that the account will be suspended or closed. Indeed, anything likely to work can be fabricated, to get you to the webpage suggested in the link or hyperlink. Note the word suggested.
Likenesses to company logos are used to re-enforce credibility.

In fact, these phishing attempts actually look pretty good or realistic. So much so that any qualms of guilt or stupidity, experienced by a conned party are groundless.

Experience, specific education or forewarning, is all that prevents this type of charade from widening its base of victims.

The goal is to get you to type in your details, complete with credit card number and the rest can be guessed.
Some damage is also absorbed by the organisation or company being misrepresented and they can do little about it but warn their customers what to watch out for, and issue security instructions. Indeed, it is from accounts at reputable companies that most passing trade learn the correct or most secure procedures. It is therefore important to read any material that they offer.

Generally though, reputable companies with a mind to preserve their integrity will tell you to log-in at their main page and proceed from there. Not through a link specific to your account!

Hyperlinks can mask the true domain that youll be brought to, with the text linked to www.anydomaindotcom (example, only), a replica or fake page. Only going to secure pages where one believes that https will do it, will always help but wholly unreliable. The s is an indication of a secure page, but are you at the right domain?
Place your mouse over the link and the domain attached to such a link, should show itself. Viewing the source code is another way but some knowledge of it is necessary.

Another ploy, sometimes deliberate and sometimes convenient, is inserting a reference to the legitimate company anywhere after the domain name. Ex. https://www.anydomaindotcom/ebay/aagle/. Unwary victims may overlook the fact that ebay is not the domain, but see it anyway as a directory or file name. Anyone, anywhere can have a file or directory named like that of a company.

To make matters somewhat worse from an easy to identify viewpoint, the source code of the link can be represented as an I.P. address rather than its named counterpart. There are some tools that you can use at http://centralops/co/ which you can use to type in the I.P. address and cross reference it with the official account domain presented in the e-mail, or web page for that matter. Opening a second window for investigative purposes and re-sizing both to be side by side can be revealing, and comparisons be made between the alleged source and that of the source code.
www.ebay can be put in one window and www.suspiciouslyspurious can be put in the other. NOTE; you should be checking domains and ignoring everything that comes after the forward slash at the end of the domain.
A similar test can be done for email viruses, where suspicious email addresses can be searched for some degree of authenticity.

If you are phished, try to learn as much as possible about it as phishing attempts and email viruses have some aspects in common.
Incorrect spelling is one of them. You must understand that the authors can be from anywhere and not necessarily have degrees in English. Legitimate companies can also be from anywhere, with different primary languages, but do perfect their spellings and general grammar.

Attention to upper and lower case can be another giveaway. This is especially true where particular portions of the text are the design of the author, and not just copied and pasted. Typically, these portions are customised to be customer specific in a general sense, and fonts may even be different or out of place. Such special additions are to strengthen the sense of urgency and call to action.

Should you be the recipient of phishy mail, you can forward it to spam@uce.gov

Krystal Flash Bugger, Bead Head, Olive

The addition of olive krystal flash to the popular wooly bugger has made this fly come alive both in the depths of your favorite trout lake and in your local trout stream. It may be stripped on a sinking line in still water or swung across current in river situations. This fly has quickly become a must have in any fly fishers box.

G. Loomis Stream Dance Metolius Trout Fly Rods

Beautifully designed to reflect the central Oregon spring creek for which they were named, the Metolius is the workhorse of our trout line-up. These are smooth casting fly rods with both accouterments and the price scaled down a bit. They're made from a special blend of two and sometimes three proprietary graphite's (no... we are not telling you what they are). Metolius rods feature our exclusive offset-oval reel seat with a beautifully engraved G.Loomis fish on a delicate green insert. There are two different actions available in the Metolius line: Presentation and High Line Speed. Also available is a 13' 4" (3 piece) two-hand "trout spey" rod, offering a uniquely different approach to some very technical fly rod challenges. Salmon and Steelhead anglers have long under-stood the advantages of the super long rod and now it's available on a very nice 5/6-weight rod. It adds a totally new dimension to the trout angler's arsenal. Stream Dance Metolius Trout Fly Rods Series Model Line Weight Power Taper Handle Price FR843-3-Metolius Metolius Presentation Action 3 Med Med-Fast 146 $345 Fishing small spring creeks and brooks is always a joy, enhanced when using rods that load short, in the 15 to 35 foot ranges. Line speed should be slower for delicate and accurate presentations of the very tiniest of dry flies and nymphs. FR963-3-Metolius Metolius Presentation Action 3 Med Med-Fast 146 $350 Fishing small spring creeks and brooks is always a joy, enhanced when using rods that load short, in the 15 to 35 foot ranges.

Line speed should be slower for delicate and accurate presentations of the very tiniest of dry flies and nymphs. FR964-3-Metolius Metolius High Line Speed Action 4 Med-Stiff Fast 147 $360 FR1024-4-Metolius Metolius High Line Speed Action 4 Med-Stiff Fast 147 $370 Small streams and medium-size spring creeks often challenge you to extend casts approaching 45 feet. Slightly longer rod lengths help make casting tasks and line control mends easier. Light lines in sizes # 3 and # 4 are the norm when the utmost in accuracy and presentation is needed, using flies from #14 down to #24, with 5x to 8x tippets. FR1084-4-Metolius Metolius High Line Speed Action 4 Med-Stiff Fast 147 $375 Standing in the relative openness of large spring creeks or slow moving bodies of water exposes you to spooking fish. Longer range, soft presentation casts become a must under these conditions. Delicacy and accuracy are still at a premium, but there needs to be enough power to turn over longer leaders with a wide range of fly sizes. These same conditions are also found in early morning, fishing on ponds with trout sipping emergers. FR1025-4-Metolius Metolius High Line Speed Action 5 Med-Stiff Fast 147 $375 When the wind picks up, take command on larger spring creeks with tighter loops, increased control, and more accurate casts. The slightly more powerful designs within the High Line Speed range deliver it all in 8 and 9-foot lengths with #4 and #5 lines, which are increasingly becoming the most dominant player in this environment. FR1085-4-Metolius Metolius High Line Speed Action 5 Med-Stiff Fast 148 $380 Big dries, weighted flies, streamers, multi flies, long leaders, strike indicators, sink tips, split shot, are all buggers to cast, even without much wind. Add long casts from float tubes and that's why you need some extra horsepower. And should all the stars and mayflies align, and the conditions get calm, you'll want fine diameter tips that can still protect light tippets and offer trout fishing versatility. FR16056-3-Metolius Metolius Trout Spey Action 5-6 Med Med 150 $445 The bushes are just behind you. The fish are 60 feet out. What do you do? Roll out a single or double spey cast and you cover the spot, then mend, extending your drift to the confluence of the next river system. You'll need to manage long leaders and nymph patterns in deep water spots, and push out large dries like stoneflies and hoppers, yet still enjoy catching 12-inch rainbows without breaking light tippet. Steelhead and salmon anglers have been using the long rod for years, eliminating false casts, keeping the fly in the water where it needs to be, not in the air. And the 13'4" #5/6 StreamDance Spey is so light, an 18-incher will feel like a 10lb summer run steelhead feels on your 8 weight. Isaac Walton would be jealous. FR1086-4-Metolius Metolius High Line Speed Action 6 Med-Stiff Fast 149 $385 Big dries, weighted flies, streamers, multi flies, long leaders, strike indicators, sink tips, split shot, are all buggers to cast, even without much wind. Add long casts from float tubes and that's why you need some extra horsepower. And should all the stars and mayflies align, and the conditions get calm, you'll want fine diameter tips that can still protect light tippets and offer trout fishing versatility.

Trico, Spinner, Foam, Female

Many fly fishermen know that the worst part of fishing a spinner fall can be determining which dot on the water is your fly. The Female Foam Spinner Trico is actually visible to the angler while providing the fish with nothing but a realistic spent mayfly silhouette.
