[Try2brkme]

Nice jumbo's!!

[DREWDuDE100]

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@DREWDuDE100 newyork side

[DREWDuDE100]

@ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE ahh i c you guys got the better end of the lake

great video by the way 5/5

[mijo1975]

I have always wanted to ice fish. It looks like so much fun.

[burtonkidd]

2 miles isn't bad at all.

We walk 2-4 miles and it goes by fast as long as you don't look back LOL!

I wouldn't take the changes of taking a vehicle on the ice no matter the thickness 2" or 20"

[OUTWatch19]

Great video, awesome day on the ice!!!! i would use my snowmobile for sure instead of walking!!!

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@OUTWatch19 thanks - i'd rather use your snowbile too

[mhrnumber34oyeah]

That is when the snowmobile comes in handy I got one go about 4 miles out into the lake and land these big ass perch biggest one caught about 15 inches 4 pounds biggest son of a bitch I've ever seen in my life

[brody12380]

i caught a bigger one it was 13 inches

[19flyinfish]

Dear God could you set the hook any harder, Amazed you didn't rip the jig right through the top lip

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@19flyinfish you got to remember we were fishing over 50 foot of water and monofilament line has a lot of stretch - got to set hard

[Krb303]

You walked the whole 2-3 miles??

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@Krb303 yes - 3 miles out 3miles back - was worth it

[voelkerb]

That was the most awesome ice fishing video ever!

[MultiWizzler]

So you´re using live baits? Could it be the same thing with jigs or something else? I´m an angler myself and it would be interesting to learn and try new things, so could you advice me a bit about the fishing gear and tecniques you´re using?

[camaroon4me]

Thanks for the video guys! I'm sitting here Saturday Jan 7, and we have NO ice on lake St.Clair. At least I can watch someone catching fish!

Peace, John V.

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@TheLovetocatchbass most were 11 - 13" my bro had some 14's - theyre big to me

[TheLovetocatchbass]

@ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE for perch those are pretty good sizes. if you celebrate it merry christmas.

[bdoblar762]

i have wondered how you guys sex you perch

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@bdoblar762  i'm willing to try most things but never sex with perch

[jgsnipe1]

@ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE he means how do you tell the sex of the perch

[morino69]

never ice fished for pearch before...your videos makes me wanna give it a try this year! looks like good times! nice fishing!

[Redneckgalore]

Hey guys i really love your videos. I dont know if u have tried this before but the underside of the perches mouth is great bait mixed with wax worms. Its kind of a pain in the ass to get out but it lasts a long time just a suggestion GREAT VIDEOS KEEP IT UP :)

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@Redneckgalore thanks man - never heard of using that for bait -have to check it out

[derekbb14]

What shack is that?

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@derekbb14 2 man fish trap ,guide series

[girloveswolves]

i cant wait for icefishing season to begin here in northern MI, around Traverse city area.I have hit a couple of local lakes & run into schools of 12"+ perch..& caught 25+ here! thx for the post

[chevykid241]

@girloveswolves I'm getting my gear ready here in northern MN!

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@AwesomeWweThemeSongs we released it - not in season on lake erie

[SuperTwinkie59]

never gets old.

[noobslayer115]

Great video Im 14 and I tray alot of your riges and they work vary well. Also you guys should get a Qued so you dont walk as far.

[JohnnyFa]

Close to walleye fillets on a few of those lol! Has me ready for ice coming up. you guys are cracking up at these fish, looked like one of the better trips!

[MultiBmxkings]

like the length of the vids plus do u ever not have a ciggert in ur mouth

[gregoir]

whst's goin on Bull? hope all's well bro! hope work's ok n you n I get to fish asap!-

Greg

[MrMnicefisherman]

great video and very very nice perch!!!! out of all the ice videos i watch yours are by far the best imo. great work!!!

[xNUSx2012]

Nice job guys, i like the style, drop shot straight to the bottom then hangin around about 8 inches to 1 1/2 feet off the bottom, nice, just out myself the other day caught at 4 at the 14 inch mark each around 1 2 pounds each, as well as a bunch more decent sized ones, keep on fishing boys!!

[crazyfish141]

In your brothers fish he got was there a white perch in there?

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@crazyfish141  i think there was 1 white perch

[crazyfish141]

@ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE thats cool

[REMEGORAS]

@ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE I always wondered why the white perch is called the white perch.

I't's not even a perch,it's a member of the bass family....

[mrspike007able]

Whats the Danger of Falling thru the Ice?, you said a old guy fell thru?.

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@mrspike007able death - fall through and unless you can pull yourself out right away your done .

old guy i his 70's was walking back in from 2+ miles out on Erie in the dark after fishing and allegedly drinking all day - fell through but luckily someone spotted his bucket and dragged him out of the water - saw the guy brought in while we were packing up -could have been us

[Unstopableforce09]

What was the date you went out to Sturgeon Point for those perch? A hammered nickel swedish pimple tipped with a small minnow tail works wonders on those perch.

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@Unstopableforce09 i forget the date but it was late January 2011 - the day the old guy fell through the ice

[Unstopableforce09]

@ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE I appreciate that.

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@sixoneninaa you got to know thegeneral area where fish might be ,depth ,structure excetera then keep drilling holes and fishing till ya find a good one

[SuperPrankster88]

did you keep the bass?

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@SuperPrankster88 BASS was out of season but i wouldn't keep one to eat when i got perch anyways

[franklynd]

I'm a complete ice fishing newbie, what's that flashing thing right next to the hole ?, is it keeping the hole from freezing over ?.

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@franklynd its a flasher - sonar depth / fish finder

[waynescott1016]

how many feet of water? and what bait if you don't mind  nice vid keep it up

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@waynescott1016 around 52' of water - bait was emerald shiner minnows

[Bobbyb9331]

they were awesome, nothing beter then a action lake you both could do nothing wrong

[jmintegrqq]

You guys make good videos.. thanks for posting men!!!!

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@jmintegrqq thanks man

[mrlove2huntdeer]

a 1 hour walk!!! damn this is when you need a snowmobile or a atv lol

[ManitobaOutoorsman22]

Awesome videos man, they are great. You guys should come to Manitoba for a trip and I could take you out for some Lake Winnipeg walleyes, What kind of camera do you guys use, I want to make some videos of my own but don't have a camera. I like what yours does. Once again, great vids!

[thisisntbobby]

those were bass disguised as perch lol

[TheMarcistube]

nice 2011 perch man good job

[FishingWithMJ]

hey bill i was wondering in what video was the biggest perch ever

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@FishingWithMJ my biggest on video was in the 14 inch perch ice fishing video - got bigger ones but thats before i started filming my fishing trips

[FishingWithMJ]

@ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE sweet

[UGLYSTIKCOLIN]

What model of flasher do you have?

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@UGLYSTIKCOLIN I just have the basic vexilar fl8

[MNLoveOutdoors]

I love your determination to fish... 1 hour to walk in? I probably would have done the same thing, lol. Good fishing!

[lilperchhunter]

good job, that was worth the walk, awesome avg size

[regionrat39]

you should have a show on how you cook those perch. Nothing better than buttered perch.

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@regionrat39 i here that - perch are good any way you cook em up

[bass12pro]

awsome videos keep them comeing!!

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@gregoir  i don't think iv'e tried that line yet - i been using stren flourocast in 4lb without any problems

[hardcorebassfishin96]

what kind of spring do u have on the pole that bill is using it looks nice i usually use the frabill springs and they do good but ice always gets into them and clogs up and makes line hard to pass threw if u dont have a heater on and in a ice shanty that one does that one? please let me know

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@hardcorebassfishin96 thats just a basic spring steel spring bobber that most tackle shops carry -get clogged with ice on the cold days too but we got a good heater

[FishingMaster27]

ice fishing is done for philly suburbs :( Last trio ended with a weld that broke on my auger :(

[JasonJForrest]

now those are some big perch! another awesome video buddy! now i'm hungry! ha ha ha

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@mathewc313 this spot is all the way in western new york - sure there's some good fishing on your end somewhere

[gregoir]

[jrf064]

I watch your videos all the time and always look for new ones - I wish you could fish and post everyday my son loves them. Thanks for keeping them clean as well. My son is 3 and I'm hoping he'll ice fish with me in a couple of years.

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@jrf064 thanks man -i wish i could fish every day too but fishings hard work

[adirondaxguy]

It just goes to show when you put the work in you can get some great fish. Been a fan for a long time. It's always awesome to be able to see outdoors videos from places I go to. I tell all my friends to watch watch em' These videos are better than the outdoor channel Keep up the good work!

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@adirondaxguy thanks man

[MonsterBullhead]

lol i thought thats bass was a perch at first I was like WOW!

[fishingwiththenerd]

Your videos make me hungry...

[gregoir]

@Tnvvolsfandking.WHATDYA" MEAN!"Probably the best"?!lol j/kBill n Mike by far my favorite for year's!ever since I watched my 1's vid. by them n was like"hey, I used to live by there"! weather finally calmed down n wannago but here in Ohio I'll have to take a dang 1/2 hour ride 2 renew my license!(not Sept. like NY)good luck if you go,like ya" said Bill,lemme know if ya" go u know where...also would be sweet to check out those spot's from elicott.ck to the river ttyl be safe

[scottie56005]

You need a sled or atv! All those marb reds you be smoking is goona kill you on that walk one day! lol Pretty impressive catch! I wish we had perch that big here. A big perch for around me is 11". Thanks again for the video.

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@scottie56005 thanks man - i got to quit smokin or get a quad - that walk was a killer but worth for a shot at lake Erie jumbos

[cjacustomwoodworking]

@ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE NYS Quit line works well... if you have a local health insurer they'll work with the NYS Quit line- also your health carrier will probably cover meds- Chantix, Wellbutrin to assist if necessary. I'm in the business, so couldn't help but comment. Hey man, got to keep you upright, your videos are too good. Colin and I watch them all the time!

[moosehunter30]

Thats awesome, nice perch!

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@moosehunter30  thanks man

[glenandgibbert]

Awesome Smallmouth Tooooo! sooo lucky i really wish that i lived within at least an hours range from erie. i would kill to do that one day. sweet video as always guys.

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@glenandgibbert thanks - i appreciate it

[FishingNinja1]

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@FishingNinja1  thanks

[FishingNinja1]

[physchohead24]

Incredible fish!! Wish we got fat perch like that up here in washington state

[Danman2579]

ur wlcm

[anglerth]

cool. Nice video anyway

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@anglerth thanks man

[anglerth]

omg i always wanted to fish there but never had a chance

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@anglerth is not for everyone the big lake that is .got to have a compass or gps to find your way back in case of snow or fog plus a wind shift can separate the main ice sheet from shore leaving you stranded

[PABushMan7]

whats the name of this song

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@PABushMan7 its  ( take the lead ) from incompetech - royalty free music.

[TNVolsFancdking]

Awesome video.Always love watching your videos. Probably the best on youtube... Keep up the great job and look forward to your next video!!

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@TNVolsFancdking thanks man - i appreciate it

[j0j0barz33]

What I'd do to go ice fishing with you guys! Haha, great video an nice smallie

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@j0j0barz33 thanks man

[gregoir]

Also Bill(sorry )when I was out n finally got through the ice(was gonna DRILL lotsa holes n use more stuff?that primitive stuff aforementioned lol) water had 2 b @ least 12 ft. deep where I was n it was really murky!..could that b cuz its a shallow pond/that was the deepest area?also wanted 2 say,besides bibg not sharp enough,my auger is 5'tallx7.5"wide(cut)I'm only 5'7"& I think your auger is smaller,yathink that could be why "no hole for me"?!

[gregoir]

@lewandlo...they kinda"did that in the last video,but Bill had waxworm's on a nymph,whatever spinner n mike had a "dropshot"rig w/minnow I think,anyways yeah I kinda gave up on the tailhookin 2 4 same reason,plus I heard they seem 2 hit more when they looked disabled.

Dang Bill! I could sit n watch these vid's. all day lol..can't wait to get the laptop fixed,phone is ok but p.i.t.a! lot's of weirdness w/ dss jack n charge don't last...stupid verizon/lg crap!

[bassmaster376]

NICE VIDEO!!!!  i am very jelous!

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@legoman844 not bad at all

[heartlake09]

I was waiting for a new ice fishing video from your channel, thanks, great video as always.

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@heartlake09 thanks man --i appreciate it

[FishingThePNW]

always a pleasure to watch your videos! very nice perch action, i'm very jealous! i gotta add ice fishing to my bucket list :D

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@FishingThePNW  thanks man

[schoelier619]

how thicks the ice?

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@schoelier619 around 7" of ice - i usually like it a little thicker when i miles from shore on Erie

[MonsterBullhead]

@ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE Awesome catches and video once again, ive never been to erie maybe some day...

[stottville365]

Awesome video! We got into a nice school of jack perch in pittsfield mass. Nice fillets off those perch

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@stottville365 thanks man

[jtschid0910]

you walked two miles out pulling a fish house? Man i wish i was in as good of shape as you and i'm 15

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@jtschid0910 mike did most of the dragging - he's a gym rat - i'd probably have a heart attack if i went alone

[stoughton1]

You guys are really hard core to walk out there that far and freeze all day..Love the videos..

[TopAZangler]

u should do some crappie videos

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@TopAZangler i plan to get out for crappie soon but the best time for crappie is when they start schooling heavy near the end of the ice season

[fishingwithkmarine]

did you keep the bass

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@fishingwithkmarine  theyre out of season but i probably wouldn't keep one -perch and other panfish are much better eatin

[gregoir]

Amazing! you got it made bro! wish I could talk 2 ya I was finally out last night..BAD! Auger sucked, got through the ice w/ an axe n nothin! then(phone was dead) got my truck stuck in mud n ice....didn't get out till 9;45(neighbor heard me honkin,used his cell to call triple a @ 7am) this mornin...long story bro...hopefully have it like you someday lol...those first 3 were awesome n water/ice so clear!...1 mile walk?!holy cow I'd do it...be careful guy's

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@gregoir thanks -sounds like your having a rough ice season man.

was 2 miles off shore but 3 mile walk just to get out following the trail around the ice shoves - i got to get me a quad some day ,man i'm sore

[wmajor13]

great as always. when i saw that smallie i almost shat my pants, i thuaght it was a perch

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@wmajor13 thanks - i thought it was perch for a split second myself

[Young1Bloodz]

LMAO @ 7:42 that things huge!

[anglerth]

Wow thise perch are HUGE !!!!

i ve never seen perch that bi before

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@anglerth they get even bigger on erie -lots of 14 -15.5 inchers

[UGLYSTIKCOLIN]

Nice video. Much better music!

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@UGLYSTIKCOLIN thanks man -got to change it up once in a while

[fishinDude0901]

Another great vid. U guys got to get back to irondiquite bay. We went out Saturday and got some bumbos. Try fishin by the markers out infront of the boat launch called mayers on the north side of the bridge

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@fishinDude0901 thanks man - i'm scared to go on the north side - ice is bad enough by the club - my brother and i both fell thew the ice there before - big perch there

[xfiles1952]

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@xfiles1952 thanks man

[TheEliteFisherMan]

Amazing video man! Great job. Got out today, got like 3 crappie all around 11 inches. Hopefully I can get some better footage this weekend if i can get out!

[ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE]

@TheEliteFisherMan thanks man - good luck this coming weekend - got to get out for crappie soon myself

[TheEliteFisherMan]

@ROADSNAKE90ROADSNAKE Thanks man. Yeah, Crappie have been pretty good to me so far this year. Was going to head out today, but this weather, 31km winds, -11. To windy for me!
