Curious what people bring out on the ice to eat while fishing?

Whytie · « **Reply #1 on:** Sep 06, 2018, 09:22 AM »

Subway, it's on the way to a lake I fish and opens at 6 am . Just avoid tomatoes they will make the bread soggy by noon.

Got myself a same propane grill this year for dogs/burgers. Most of the time I don't eat but my son has come more and more and he love to eat so need to step up my game also.

Easy stuff. Cheese, jerky, PBJs. I eat while jigging.

slipperybob · « **Reply #6 on:** Sep 06, 2018, 11:28 AM »

Smoked meats, jerky...chips

Usually some sausage or brats on a roll with mustard, if we're feeling fancy some onion to throw on top.

Mancaveburnett · « **Reply #8 on:** Sep 06, 2018, 11:49 AM »

I always wanted to bring a propane burner and cook brats and heat up chilli. I can never break away from the fishing long enough to do that so I usually get a sub, chips, and slimjims on the way lol.

If I cook its brats, otherwise usually a sammich - depends if I bring the heater/cooker or not

piersm2 · « **Reply #11 on:** Sep 06, 2018, 12:50 PM »

What I started doing last year was bring lunchables out with me. Not a ton of food there, but enough to tide me over till im done, or the brews fill me up, whatever comes first

perchnut · « **Reply #12 on:** Sep 06, 2018, 12:57 PM »

If I bring out the cooker, its usually brats and chili. Otherwise, Im just heating up a sammich or some soup on the buddy heater. But I love percking up a fresh pot of coffee!

piersm2 · « **Reply #13 on:** Sep 06, 2018, 12:58 PM »

What can be used for a coffee pot? Would love to brew some up as well on the ice

6 pack of beer there is a pork chop in every can.

Usually don’t eat lunch on the ice when fishing solo, but I sometimes bring a thermos of soup (bacon cheddar potato seems to give me good luck with the crappie).

Now, if it is a group, anything that will fit on the Smokey Joe is fair game. Nothing beats charcoal…except charcoal with a jigging hole next to the grill.

^^^This!
I've also taken some smoked brats and put them in a thermos with some boiling water. Makes for a hot meal with out having to heat anything on the ice.

perchnut · « **Reply #19 on:** Sep 06, 2018, 03:16 PM »

for coffee, I just use a small percolator pot, the kind with the glass nob on top. coffee in the basket, water, put it on the little propane cooker, and voila!! ez pz. If I dont bring out the propane cooker, then I have a jet boil, and I'll bring some instant coffee bags....kind of like tea bags. Just something about fresh coffee on the ice.

Usually don't eat on the ice. If I'm catching fish I could sit out there all day and not care. If the fishing is slow I get hungry and grab some fast food or gas station food on the way to the next spot.

filetandrelease · « **Reply #21 on:** Sep 06, 2018, 04:22 PM »

Always a thermos of tea with honey , some trail mix and maybe a sandwich ,

I usually bring a peanut butter sandwich and a thermos of soup.

The Fish Addictions show got me hooked on Cheesewiches. Always stop and pick up a couple when I'm headed out now.

Brats on my backpacking stove are always delicious!

lynng · « **Reply #26 on:** Sep 06, 2018, 06:56 PM »

I made a cooking grate for my Buddy heater. I usually heat up chili, homemade soup or American chop suey (a New England thing). Sometimes also have Brats, Metts or spiced beef tongue sandwich .

Granola bars

Usually when I’m out fishing by myself I’m too focus or preoccupied to get hungry, so it’s usually just tea/coffee, Gatorade, and soda. I almost strictly jig and hole hop, rarely setting any traps. But when I go out as a group with my friends that also guide, they usually bring out some stuff to cook. last few times it was grilled cheese with bacon... I have to say I’ll usually stop fishing for that.

Iceassin · « **Reply #29 on:** Sep 06, 2018, 08:34 PM »

Usually nothing other than maybe a snack. Eat b'fast before heading out...fish all day or until limit caught...go home eat dinner...clean fish...repeat. Season is to short and unpredictable around here . Got to keep a line in the hole at all times and I can't do that if I'm feeding my face.
