I seen a bunch of drunk hillybillys 1 day have about 20 lines in the water they where using small tree branches to huge fishing rods. They only got 1 pike all day it did'nt look legal but i was going to approach them about it. About 3 of them and your only aloud 2 per person where i live.
Used that for early ice trout.....sight fishing and nothing around....out came the spoon, and after about 10 minutes, we had some trout keeping us busy.....Grump
Can't do that here- only allowed 2 lines. Should be that way everywhere, IMO
At one of the lakes where my friend Ray and I fish we often see Amish men ice fishing. One day we watched one of the men in a group take a rope that had a bunch of big nuts, bolts and other clutter attached to it and lower it down a hole and jig it rather violently on the bottom. Soon the rest of the men would start to catch fish and when the bite slowed down they would go thru the same process all over again.We thought that this was a rather amusing concept and had a couple of good laughs over it. Not long after that I ran across an article in a fishing mag about a guy that "called fish" by using a bunch of fishing spoons and big spinners attached in tandem on a fishing line with a big sinker at the bottom.He would use this in the same way that the Amish were using their rig and he claimed that it worked. Being inclined to make things like this for my own use,I fashioned a similar one and we took it out the next time that we went fishing and guess what ? It worked. I'm not insinuating that we limited out or anything like that but it did seem to turn the fish on when the bite slowed. It also gave my friend Ray a reason to pester me to get out my "Amish fish caller" when nothing was happening. After reading this I think that I'll go sort thru the "stuff" stashed away in the garage and give it a try again. Winchester 88
