I wish Onxy would work on Android and for the lakes near me!! Looks like an amazing app
Like you, I make it a priority to try new water throughout the year. Discovering new honey holes is super exciting and can be very rewarding.
Matt if its on a App its no longer a secret. Lol
@@SteveSutherland-n5l are there any fishing secrets anymore 🤷♂️😁
Love my LX7!!
On Tonka yesterday afternoon. Found lots of big ‘gills in 12-25 feet. Could not find any crappies for a meal. The hunt continues. Shallower I went the more “bitey” they were. Appears that I can look even shallower for crappie!
Hey Matt Did you put studs on your snow dog ? If so what did u use Thanks
@@kevinorszula2748 yes, I put them on usually right away as I’m always on glare ice it seems. Lol. I use the “original gold screws” for mine. They make a shallow set for studding tires and work great on the Snowdog
Best clam spoon hands down
Hi Matt, thanks so much for these update videos. I wait for them every week and they’re super informational and helpful. I’m sold on fishing the weeds and have had some exceptional outings right in the middle of the day. Thanks for your encouragement. It’s really helped me. I’ve come to realize that ought not all weeds are created equal.. I’ve noticed the fish seem to be in the heavier weeds higher off the bottom. Do you find that to be true? What are your thoughts on weed variety, height and density?
@@kinniguy first off, thanks a ton for the kind words! And yes, I agree with you. The heavier weeds definitely seem to be a magnet for the fish and I’ve found that to be true as well! Sounds to me like you’re dialed in on secret sauce!! 👊
Thanks for the recap Matt! Would you mind sharing what bays you fished in this event? I believe in 2022 you went out of Carson's and fished Lower Lake towards Excelsior and Gideon. Thanks!
@@zachkindt went out of Phelps and gave them a huge playing field, possibly the largest in UPL history. They could fish down into Smithtown, over into Carmen, and towards the islands (but we drew a line and cut it off there). So fairly large area…
@@mattjohnsonoutdoorsthanks and I really like that you're giving the teams huge areas to search on Tonka, lots of cool areas that hold fish
Hi Matt, thanks for the report as always. Any tips for fishing crappies on some of the largest bays on Minnetonka after dark? I’ve done a lot of searching and rarely even mark more than a few fish per night. Guessing I’m just looking too deep most of the time or not giving the shallow weeds much of a chance when I do that? Usually give it 15 min and not seeing fish I move on. Any info would be great. TIA
@@CSLCW the schools on Tonka will always relate to structure. So if you’re just fishing out in the basin or “hole” then you’re patiently waiting for random fish to swim by… sometimes like a needle in a haystack. Seems like they focus on the weeds and will be nearby. My guess is that you’re too deep… sweet spot for the crappies out there is 8-15 feet…
@@mattjohnsonoutdoors wow even after dark? Always thought they pushed out of the weeds after prime time, and schools disperse and fish roam the edges of the basin. I’ll try looking at more of the 8-15’ depth spots and maybe give it more time to settle down after drilling. Thanks for the pointers!
@ yes, they will be more active after dark as well
Congratulations all!!!
The calm before the storm of anglers. Hope everyone had a fun and safe day.
All talking no fish. 😂😂
😁👍
Can you tell me how the switch is to be wired
It’s fantastic for last ice with holes open everywhere.
Go Callie!! Keep carb loading, girl. Gotta stay warm out there. Good show dad. Like the Tika idea. God bless.
Nice vid , gotta get out and try tonka soon
Its fake
The fish doesn't move 😂
Chilly morn. didn't go out ,to much running .to do.Good Luck
Actually the 28 PV ducer changes it's cone shape or width with the gain knob, yes also more power than can introduce noise, but gain on 1 is a very narrow cone where more gain is a wide cone
That's the way they claim it works, but it's not changing frequency as gain increases. It's just more gain.
👍 awesome fish....got one like that late summer last year.
Blessed to live 15 minutes from the lake. My favorite, most productive, most utterly befuddling at times body of water in the metro. The chance at a trophy in more than a half dozen species on any given day makes Minnetonka a true metro gem.
Nice fish
Been at JP's fish houses 3 times over the past 6 years...wanted to go this year but couldn't make it. JP's the best and hope to get back next year! Wife even enjoyed it...but she was a little nervous at night with the ice cracking even though we explained that was a good thing in that it was getting thicker! Good luck and have a blast....tell JP 'HI' from Brent - middle of Kansas!
@@smokeyvalley1 JP is absolutely in a league of his own!!
Good job.
Thanks Matt
In my cabin, I will have a gas pipe through wall & have a flexible hose inside and outside to tank outside..😊😊
Matt,, do the fuel keg bottles burp any gases like a 20# tank does on my RV. I want to use buddy heater inside.
@@harvdog5669 not that I’ve seen
13 fishing is by far the way to go the tickle stick and free fall are awesome!! Ido like the clam frost line !
Ugh. Parasites.
Great eating fish...
Fish frie. ,oh ya.
Congratulations to the top three teams. Awesome to see the first place winner drag her husband out on the ice. So sweet of her to give him the task of catching the crappies and doing the hard work herself. 😉
Thank you for NO background music. 👍👍👍
Thanks Matt!! So glad you kept these going and we actually have the beginnings of a great ice season here in CT!!
Are metro lakes drivable yet?
@@farhenheit628of1200 some vehicles are starting to venture out on carson bay...
@@farhenheit628of1200 some lakes are seeing cars… we are close for larger trucks. I bet by the weekend you see some… I’d still check before you just rip out there though…
2013 Spring lake event was no limits caught, you forgot! 😅 great report though!
@@Paddle-N-Fish I knew MT would know!! 👊
Why my thank do not mist anymore?
So why is the line spooked on 2 different ways than the third?
Can it be any milk crate
@@HlubtshajLee it’s has to be a “magnum” size or else the 4-position rod holder won’t fit inside of it
I literally CAN'T believe how good the pinhead mino works!!!
Those are some nice cropie at least I think they are cropie right
You may want to consider not filling the small containers in an enclosed space.
No gloves? That will bite ya someday.
My bday
If you can get out that far, you can get back out on the same tracks. Been there, done that. Even better, don’t go out if it’s going to be a pain in the ass getting back.
Got any recommendations for jig colors for panfish during ice season!?
@@michaeljasper9473 glow red and black are my two personal favorites for jig colors
Matt, great update, thanks. What action are you using for the straight drop rod?
@@kinniguy I run the noodle versions, I personally like those the best
I would book you JUST for the food!! Lol
