Hi, Been ice fishing once, and would like to do some this year, too. I'm not springing for a shelter or heater this year, but I have a couple of spinning-reel ice rods. My questions are... What sorts of jigs, etc. should I pick up on a VERY limited budget for crappies-n-gills-n-perch & such?
Is a tip-up the preferred method for taking northerns, and if so - how do I use them?
Is there any basic gear that I shouldn't be on the ice without?
Is there a significant difference in how much energy it takes to drill an 8" hole vs. a 10" hole with a hand-auger?
My partner is gonna be a 5 year old boy who is of exceptional patience - but is still a 5 year old boy - any pointers?
I thought I couldn’t dislike Glenn Taylor any more than I already did until today:
Glen Taylor with @ChadHartmanShow when asked if the reason for this happening is because the franchise might be worth double what he was selling it for:
"Partly so, yes. I have a responsibility to those who have been on this ride for the last 40 years."
Sellers remorse for sure but too bad for him the deal was inked 3 years ago. Hopefully the league has a way to arbitrate so it doesn’t go to court, but we will see.

Hi,
Been ice fishing once, and would like to do some this year, too.
I'm not springing for a shelter or heater this year, but I have a couple of spinning-reel ice rods.
My questions are...
What sorts of jigs, etc. should I pick up on a VERY limited budget for crappies-n-gills-n-perch & such?
Is a tip-up the preferred method for taking northerns, and if so - how do I use them?
Is there any basic gear that I shouldn't be on the ice without?
Is there a significant difference in how much energy it takes to drill an 8" hole vs. a 10" hole with a hand-auger?
My partner is gonna be a 5 year old boy who is of exceptional patience - but is still a 5 year old boy - any pointers?
Thanks -
Rob
