I agree with the quiet guys, Its amazing how far noise carries on the ice at times. I don't want to offend someone with my choice of music and prefer quiet and hear things like snow falling, ice crackling or a crow cawing in the distance. I don't even bring my gas auger out unless the ice is very thick (I have 2 Nils hand augers)
IF I didn't feel the need for music, I would keep it just low enough for me to hear, If I needed loud music, I would get one of the headphones/ipods or wireless set ups.

I prefer the peace and quite myself while fishing(and I love music)...kinda like going to a campground, much rather listen to nature and the surroundings than someones radio blaring!! .....but hey everyones different eh!
On the way home it could be anything from Classical Music to some good loud Metalica!!
Anyone know who does that "Fish On" tune...been a few years and can't remember

Cypress Hill perhaps? About the 100 lb sturgeon on 20lb test blah blah blah.... excellent tune to hear on the way out!
Morning ride is usually Pink Floyd type traveling music.

I will bring a tiny radio and listen to NPR news Radio once in a while. I like to catch a Syracuse Basketball game once in a while while set up for the Crappie night bite!!
Other than that...I like mother nature!!

Mostly the North Wind and that its the best tune going... but sometimes I do bring the Ipod and portaspeaker and tune in to some fine Grateful Dead jams!

My sentiments, exactly..especially after today..drove 15 km. out across Cold Lake...set up...and up pulls a 4x4 with a couple of
kids young enough to be my grandchildren...and without a do-you-mind they opened their truck doors and cranked up the amps..GAWD...so Sweetie and I left..spun up to Tulliby Lake looking for walleye..and same thing...as well, a family of Snowmobilers, and four pickups pull up into the Narrows (the only place the walleye really bite) and start using it as a drag strip. Now, I am a fairly reasonable Old Lady...but about then I started wondering where my rifle was...and I did start to get righteously grumpy. If you want music on ice...bring an ipod and earphones...keep it private and respect your neighbors.

Acoustic Blues always has been successfull. Try to find a typical diatonic major scale incorporating a flat or bent 3rd. Amplified electric blues remains a favorite draw for deep-water pike when it follows the 12-bar blues progression. But for overall species success, nothing beats James Brown!

My name is mud! 8)

I saw an outdoor show one time where Les Claypool was fly fishing--he uses it to decompress from his crazy life as a rockstar (the poor feller, all that money, all those women, you have to produce 1 album a year--- I wouldn't need to decompress I'd be asking for more). I wonder if he icefishes?

The only music i like on the ice is the sound if the ice popping and cracking. The chunking your cleats make when the temps are cold and the ice is strong. The soft conversation of friends sharing the moments and the fishing stories of days gone by. The 'thwump' you hear when a tipup flag goes off right behind you and it yours because your the closest. The joyfull cries the kids along make when they catch somethin or the yelps when the tipup lines burn thier hands and the laughter shared when they pull thier first big pike up the hole. And the solem vows to not do that again without gloves.

OK- tough to follow? My brother, Bruce, was married to Mary, her first husband was Yannis brother.
PS- I like country on the ice- Brad Paisley, Jason Aldean, Craig Morgan, King George

Heres the funny thing about the Yanni deal, they were married in 1993, divorced in 2002 or so, I found out about her being Yannis sister in law just last year. $:-\$

We bring a small portable radio for the occasional hockey or football game. We listen to music in the truck before and after we fish. Often Greatfull Dead for some reason, I guess its a tradition.

tilted · « **Reply #49 on:** Jan 23, 2007, 06:36 PM »

Nothing wrong with Jerry, we upgraded to the sirius sattelite portable last year. No more am radio picking up only Canadian stations when I'm in Maine. No offense to the Canadians but I don't speak French.

For me it's the music my line makes just before it snaps under the weight of a big pike that just swallowed the 12 inch perch I was reelin in.

When people start fishing too close to our shanty we like to pop in Ted Nugent and blast the stereo. They usually don't stick around long.

I like the quiet, but I think anything you want as long as you keep the volume low and not try and force it on everyone else on the ice or off. If you like it loud bring your headset.

classic rock maybe a little johnny cash hank or dwight yokam also got to listen to MR. Thorogood (great drinkin music)
