She must have been listening, Ice fishing rod

So my daughter came home for Christmas and I opened this up from under the tree. I’ve never fished the hard water before. Spent my whole life on Georgian Bay but only by boat. This year we tried our new boat on Simcoe and gained a new appreciation for it. Long story short I’ve been talking about Ice fishing and boom. This is what I got lol. Now all I need is for one of you seasoned pros to take me out to try it lol. I will supply the blind fold so I don’t know the honey holes.

Rod

Enjoy that new weapon. Hope you land a few with it.

You also need to remind people that we are allowed TWO lines in the water during hard water season….. so they get you 2 rods and reels! Lol

Your first set up and far from the last. If we get a good solid cold season with safe ice…. PM me. We can get out and land something.

Thanks to global warming, I think most of you guys should be investing in boats instead of huts

Hey Fish4diner I might just take you up on that lol.
Reelinginthebigone. I’ve got the boat but in the winter I just thought I’d join them because you know the saying. I too hate the cold but can’t do much else in the winter. My skiing days are over lol.Electrician’s knees have caught up to me.

I have been fishing LS for years.
Willing to help out with locations, methods, safety, entry points etc. to get you started.
Long time a forum guy helped me get started so I will return the favor.
You have choices for target fish, perch, white fish, or Lakers are what I chase.
Let me know your preference.
I am not sure yet on this site how allow for private conversations but I will investigate later today.
Just an FYI, I move around on ATV, I am not a walker, so unless you have some transportation it might be tough to get to some of the areas...
I might suggest you consider using a outfitter to help out in the beginning, there are lots of good ones on the Lake and they can transport you.

There’s a TON of lakes this is not true for. Almost every lake in zone 15 is one line, which is the zone north of simcoe.

Such trivial technicalities

Just get two rods anyways.

Don't listen to anybody pointing out such trivial matters.

Not even close to true

I had to do a double take on where I made my post….. yup I am on the Simcoe section of the board.

Why not tell me that there is no ice fishing in Cuba while you so far out off topic to point out something that has nothing to do with Simcoe.

man cannot survive with 1 ice fishing rod it's a great start, but ya need more

I honestly have about 30. Don't ask me why, it just happened. I am happy to also provide any help you need with whitefish/perch on Simcoe. Met a few members on this board that are absolutely wonderful and am happy to pay it forward.
