  • Yeah I'm a redneck, I could ice fish for a living.

I had a pak shack and let it go.  Unless you are a really small guy it is tight, obviously it is personal preference but I didnt like mine at all.  It was hard to even jig because of the clearance between the seat and the front of the shack and forget about getting you flasher in there(that made it super tight.  I get rid of the shack and bought a killzone for 125  off ebay and couldnt be happier.

Just my two cents.  If you are a smaller guy, the pak shack might work for you.  Just check it out if you havent before you buy.

Have had lots of luck with jigging up perch. Decent sized fish from 10-13 inches. Last weekend a lady caught a pickerel that was close to thirty inches on a tip up. I will be there Sunday with a few friends. Maybe see some of you guys there.. I have the Black instashak..

im going to try mahopac lake for some crappies havent been there in years!

20+ years for me.  I was young and new to ice fishing...lived in the area and fished it a few times.  I heard the yellows were nice too, but I never got into them out there.

Saturday's target is Lake Mahopac (Yellow & Crappies).  Only 2 of us so far..... anyone else interested??  We'll be there about 9AM...access is Southside Inn, 911 South Lake Blvd., Mahopac, rear parking lot.  I hear rumours there are Northern Pike in there also.  Never fished it before, so thjis is an exploratory trip.....we'll see what happens.
