I'm so jealous!  Icefishing in October.  Incredible!

Of course, it certainly helps to have mountain lakes that are over 10,000 above sea level.

The ones in my neck of the woods top out at around 2,900 feet a/b/s.

Thanks guys. I was very surprised by the conditions.

Congrats Dr!  Looks like an awesome day. Great Vid with awesome drone shots.
Can't wait to get out there and especially when perch fisheries ready. Fish tacos and a howdy from Slayer is always good times.

Agreed, some people have childhood heroes like batman or superman or even their father. Slayer is mine, one day I will meet him out there.

Probably a good idea not to set your expectations too high.
We're born, we live for a while, and then we die.  Sounds like a good reason to go ice fishing.

Nice video!  What kinda drone are you using?

HA Swollen head till he walking into a methane hole. Nothing like some ice water to reduce swelling.

Little Coffee Rum can help as well.

Man, that is definitely some early ice, way to go!  Although that knee-deep snow didn't look like too much fun

Surprisingly Im ready to roll and catch some slimers. Trying to land big slimers on 2-3" ice is pretty fun.

Definitely not fun, feels like my heart beat is in my neck from the walk.

Middle aged fat white boy doing his extreme aerobics at 11,000'. There is such a thing as arterial thrombosis. Are you a medical doctor, DrCro? If not, you may want to talk to somebody who is. I'm pretty sure Batman would tell you the same thing.
By the way, I certainly admire the production values of your videos. You may want to mix in a pretty girl holding up a fish on your next one. I believe it was you who put out a very nice short on Antero last season.

I pace my self very well when I do these hikes I’m just being sarcastic about the heart beat. I take a break every couple of minutes to catch my breath, drink water and eat a snack.

Haha thanks for the idea, but I am not going to have crazy video titles and pretty girls just to get more views. I hope everyone enjoys the videos for the fishing. I started all this because I had a buddy that can’t walk joke with me and said I should film so he can feel like he is with me, so I did. :)

Might be a sac opportunity on Sunday. 41 degrees at 11:00, wind 6-7. Otherwise, it seems like the new lids are right around the corner.
We're born, we live for a while, and then we die.  Sounds like a good reason to go ice fishing.
