oh my god!! Jay you went to the same coulee pond I go to. When you show the road being snowed in at the beginning you can see tire tracks from a truck getting stuck and that was me! If you ever come back try the actual diversion just south, it is alot better for perch and northern. This is go to spot and it makes me happy to see my favorite KZfaqr fish it.

I never realized you don’t have much of a bluegill bite up by you! They are my favorite fish to target on thru the ice here in Wisconsin. Awesome you got on a big school like that. The non-stop action is tough to beat, no matter the size! Really awesome footage with the underwater camera too. So cool to see them interact & learn from it! Keep on slaying 💪🏼 🎣 🧊

Whether you call them Brim or Bluegills, the incredible Pumkinseeds, the awesome Redears, these awesome species keep me entertained on the ice. As you mentioned, the colors can be incredible, so vibrant, and the bigger ones on light tackle sure make a day on the ice enjoyable. Thanks for the visual. Always great to see when you post a video, I know it will be awesome!

Bummer that you don't have any bluegills up there, pound for pound, they are the toughest fighters around! I love how excited you are about them, we just take them for granted because they're so plentiful. Come on down to central MN sometime, there are some brutes to be found if you know where to look.

Fished one of the other lakes in that chain of lakes in high school.

Big bluegill hunting helps with every species of fishing. They can be so picky in presentation, cadence and location. To catch big 10”+ pressured gills is probbley the hardest fish to catch besides muskies. Looked like u hit the perfect time and location.

We have those in North Western Montana and they drive me nuts when I bass fish 😂 they are insanely aggressive for their size!
