Title: TV show on Manitoba Pike thru the ice
Post by: Out4Trout on Apr 02, 2005, 12:01 PM

I just caught the last 5 minutes of a show on OLN - channel 608 on directv. They were catching Northerns on Lake of the Woods. The show is We Live Outdoors and will be on again Sunday 4-3-05 at 11:00am eastern std time. Just thought you might try to catch it. You don't see too many shows about ice fishing.

I caught the whole show. Its great to see a whole show being dedicated to ice fishing. The main guy behind the show is the owner of Gander Mountain and he makes that trip to LOTW every winter for pike. I loved when he said he gets people asking if the ice is still safe and he replies "Well I wouldn't reccommend it" and then in they cut to a shot of a piece of heavy farm equiptment on the ice.

Anyone know where on LOTW they were? There quite a bit of water to cover on that lake.

Prolly is Buffalo Bay then. I've never fished it but thats a popular spot for northerns. A lot of American anglers go there as it borders on Minnesota.

It's late winter on Lake of the Woods in Manitoba. Pike. . .big pike are making their way up the rivers to spawn. Join a group of die-hard ice anglers who make an annual pilgrimage just to intercept them. See what it looks like to squeeze a 20 pound fish through a 10 inch hole.
