80 Year Old Catches his BIGGEST fish ice fishing! Day 3

[@jasejens]

Ok I’m going to say it…. Joe is putting out the best content on KZbin lately! The quality, the consistency, its all must see content!

[@JASTEVENS1]

💯 agree!

[@terrywade7346]

Thus I don't understand how big Joe does not have a hundred thousand subs. Great viewing.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Wow thank you! Much appreciated!!!

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thanks Buddy!

[@stephenosborne9073]

I couldn’t agree more!

[@billwilkinson9573]

Seriously Joe. We will buy Donnie's cookbook as soon as he gets it ready.

[@patrickwaldrich]

I second that!

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Truth!!!

[@jamminjr7856]

I'm in! Autographed copy for me please

[@patrickwaldrich]

I'd pay extra for the autograph!

[@matthewmcnulty698]

How much will it be for a cookbook? From donnie, and i'm hoping that he'd be willing to give up his donut recipe, because they sound like they'd be good

[@bradmoreau7527]

80 years old and still getting out on the ice, snowmobiling, respect to that man! Hope I’m still able to be active like that at his age

[@JoeHollandFishing]

He's a beast!!!

[@austinrizzo872]

Donnie is the best!!! More of his videos please! ❤

[@JoeHollandFishing]

For sure, stay tuned!

[@alanruechel2240]

Late afternoon pike tip--Joe, try putting a few traps in the area your fishing real shallow, like only 3-4' of water under the ice. Needs to be adjacent to deep water preferably weedy or woody. Use the biggest bait you can get dead or alive. I've got many double digit that way many times at sunset or slightly after. But they can be a challenge to land in the shallow water.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Interesting thank you! Will try,

[@alanruechel2240]

@@JoeHollandFishing what surprises me is sometimes when I have a shallow set like I described, after taking bait they swim with it even shallower into what has to be less than 3'.

[@ReelCanuck]

Did the glowing pipe scare you? Mine glows at night all the time. I use the insulated pipe out the stovejack.

We were concerned at first but understand the SS heats up quickly and glows

[@patrickwaldrich]

So now that I have officially replaced my cable with your KZbin channel :) I have a question. Are all your sets for Pike dead? Do you ever use live bait? Is it a good method or the regulation of the water body?

[@JoeHollandFishing]

I have been experimenting with more dead bait than normal. I have always used live and am mixing both and checking for results. Im finding pike are lazy and opportunistic and am leaning towards dead being more effective on certain bodies of water.

[@patrickwaldrich]

@@JoeHollandFishing Thanks, that's good to know! That would be convenient when camping and trying to keep bait alive!
