i'd go looking for perch myself
Actually looks like they got an 83# in a gill net on Great Bear Lake in 2017.
I was trying an underspin jig when they were sluggish. They loved the look of it on the fall, but had zero interest in chasing it up and would not eat it off the bottom. That day there was a storm though, so I assumed they were just "barometrically challenged". Could not understand why they would not chase that jig. It looked dynamite. I would have eaten it.
Both my buddies were getting them on Jiggin raps, but the hooks were too small and a bunch came unglued. We were on smaller fish though, so maybe something with more weight would have stayed pinned. Does everyone use braid to fluoro wind-on leaders? I was doing well with 8# mono, but tough to set the hook with all the line stretch. Reel and pump!!!!
i don't think i would be good at lake trout ice fishing .....first i hate fishing i like catching and second i don't want to count a limit with one hand....i better stick with panfish but i like the pictures and stories
Wind on leaders? I use them for tuna that’s a little ridiculous for lakers next we’ll be using holo core! I’d just tie in a section of floro or fish straight floro little less stretch than mono have to reel thru the bite and load the rod and tad to crack them regardless try a uni, Alberto Albright or fg even my favorite for even line diameters is a blood
Hey trap when you get to 10 in your count do you have to take your boots off? 🤨🤨🤨 lol

You asked I answered...I use Wind-Ons for tuna also but they work great for all kinds of applications... Sufix Wind-On 100% Fluorocarbon Leaders come as light as 20lbs. Stronger over time and I can loop it off my bimini any time.
Spool up with p-line flouroclear forget the leader n imploy a good snap swivel. I use 10# and it handles well for vertical applications 😎 Read it on this site year’s ago n never looked back
