    FYI, 30+ feet… the fish ain’t going to make it. If you plan to fish 30+ feet, you should be keeping every single one and not releasing.

    • @ndyakangler
      @ndyakangler  Год назад +1

      I planned on keeping fish being that deep and most of the crappie I catch there are good keeper size. If I kept the little fish I’m sure I’d have plenty of comments about keeping too small of fish as well and a lot of places I fish have a minimum size you can keep. The one under the ice did end up swimming off as I tried to pull it back in with my ice scoop though.

    • @Whopperjunior69
      @Whopperjunior69 Год назад +1

      It may have kicked off but it’s not going to survive, the fish has barotrauma coming out of that depth. There is not way for the fish to release the air and they will just float back up until they die.

    Interesting to see how ice fishing is done in the US/Canada, and I wonder how much of the differences are because of different target fish (no crappies here). Never seen a tent or a radar on the ice here in southern Finland, but maybe the serious fishermen don't fish on the small lakes I fish either.

    • @Fluidz
      @Fluidz Год назад +1

      vexilars are very common out here just because it gives you a good advantage being able to move to a new spot if you know theres not fish there. Tents are insulated and help with the wind, and allow you to put a propane heater down to keep you warm

    • @loboyd691
      @loboyd691 Год назад

      Yeah, we have tents or pop-up shacks because it gets cold here in North Dakota but when we fish, ice or open water, we like simple sonar to see if there is fish down there but I am not a fan of the livescope panoptix when you can literally see the fishes every move. Part of the fun of fishing is the drama of not knowing if you are gonna catch them. Stay safe on the ice man!

I normally love your videos and this one was great to see good size crappie but it bothered me that you were releasing them. ANY fish pulled from greater than 25 feet of water will have barotrauma. Seen it way too many times. If you look back at 17:48 in your video, you can see a dead crappie/barely alive crappie under the ice on its side when you go to pick up another one out of the hole. If you would like to release fish in the future, please stay 20 feet and shallower so the fish have a chance!

    Just so you know, is that when catching fish below about 32 feet or there about. Fish will die . Something about they can't handle coming up from below that depths so quickly. So if fishing below that depths expect to keep the fish. Letting them go is certain death for them. And they will go to waste.

    Would have been nice to see this yesterday RUclips! I hate knowing that YT doesn't alert ALL subscribers as soon as content becomes available. I put out content as well (not NEAR as nice as this) and the fact that the algorithm does that to creators is diabolical. They already have ALL the power in the relationship...grrr. ANYWAY, I know this isn't your favorite way to fish Matt (freezing your junk off on a frozen lake) so I'm glad you got some beautiful crappie and some great footage, especially the underwater stuff...that's always SO cool to see where they live because it helps to understand how to find them...and I bet sunset on a frozen lake looks cool if you can see it. That shot of Jacob in his shelter was great...just happy as a lark doing what he loves, same as you...just brilliant. I don't know the first thing about ice fishing and I have SO many questions. One is that I get why the poles are short but, why are they so small in diameter and flexible?

      @ndyakangler  Год назад

      It's their mud mixer. Just make sure you pair it up with one of their high output batteries, they do better in cold conditions and the regular M18's can cause the mud mixer to cut out drilling through thicker ice. I've gone through 2-3ft without any problems with my setup. I've used the regular 5ah M18's too and if I'm drilling a lot of holes through thicker ice it would cut out but if you're not doing 6 or more holes in a row through a foot of ice the regular batteries would probably be sufficient.

      @Dubba Windsor, eh? Right across the river from Detroit. I'm an hour and a half south of Detroit / Windsor. I'm on the southern part of the western end of Erie. I can look out my windows and see the city lights from Detroit in the winter when the air conditions are right. It's supposed to get cold this weekend. Maybe the ice isn't too far off

    Fun video! Lookup "barotrauma". You were fishing in pretty deep water and likely all of your released fish dyed as a result of barotrauma because they were pulled from such deep water, typically over 28'. Studies show that even if the fish swims off lively, it has a high risk of dying later from the damage.

    I live in California and I catch huge Crappie on 65mm walking baits, as well as the Super Spook Jr., and Lucky Craft 110mm Jerkbaits. My friends use Crappie jigs on 4# and have had great nights, but I can't put down the bass gear. Even a Whopper Plopper 90 works. My biggest is 1.9, but that's the common weight for me.
