How many of you hard core ice fishermen have ever jigged over a hole saying " Here fishy fishy?"

Guilty. During extremely slow spells I've been known to lay prone next to an open hole, cup my hands and shout as loud as I can, "Here fishy, fishy, fishy!" That has occasionally produced action in adjacent holes. Go figger... Strange but true!
-
Ive found that a few good splashing will call them in . the K- drill quiet and makes a good splashing when cleaning out slush ,ive found its easier then using the side view flashers and drilling lot more holes all over , Just run auger in hole a little longer brings them in.
-
Totally...gotta talk to em. Better than talkin to my brother in law. Thought everybody did it?
-
I like to shout "COME ON WALLEYE TALK TO ME" doesnt seem to work but it makes me feel better lol
-
I use the Burt and Ernie fish call if people come around 😃, I do talk to them most of the time
-
I let my beer do the calling. Fish love beer too. They hear the can open and almost immediately I see them looking right up at me through the hole. I share a bait with them first, beer only if absolutely necessary.

Every time, someone’s gotta do it!

Been doing that for over 40 years. Best part about it was when it first started dating my wife. I get her out there swearing down the holes. It accomplished two things. Help keep her moving and help keep her warm. And two we got a good laugh out of it
-
Every single time out, but not down the hole. Nice and loud so everybody can hear!
-
Yes it works, loudly LOL.
-
My fishing buddy was known to say ''Come on you finny *****s.''
-
Nope, I've never done it ::) ;)
-
Not once have I called to the fish. I have a rod called “Herrree Fishy, fishy, fishy” and I ask for it by name. Sometimes I call for it even when I know it is at home.
-
The more you spin the electric auger in the hole the more fish come to see whats going on , then you jig them up .also the rattle jigs exceed the bite!!!
-
More of a chant. Hipdominiga Honigasadee Boomdeelah Yoooohoooo and yooohooo needs to be loud enough whole lake can hear you
-
No but if you do the Salmon Dance they will come!! ;D
-
Jumping on ice scares them ! but spinning k-drill in hole brings them from all over lake. No more need for Flashers and finders.
-
Hardly ever, i just use the fish whistle, way more effective. Toot toot!
-
You can continue to whistle , ill use my quiet auger and bring home all the fish i want to eat,,
-
do all augers draw in fish equally or do i need the magic of the k-drill? asking as i currently have an offer to trade my live scope for a k-drill. sounds like a great deal?
-
Any electric auger ,works no stamping no whistleing just reel them in. theyll probaly put a law on time of auger use after hole is drilled.
