FIRST ICE ONTARIO - Splake Fishing Catch and Cook - Underwater Footage

[@noahvanwill]

First ice finally being here is insane! I'm ready for it!

[@TheAverageJoesFishingShow]

It’s late this year but always sniff it out 😉

[@justenlico5305]

It was great meeting you out there, had a great time. Ended up with nothing but man was it ever nice to be out on the ice again!

[@TheAverageJoesFishingShow]

Nice meeting you too Justen! At least you got to scratch the itch and enjoyed a little snack anyways! A bad day of fishing is always better than not fishing haha

[@jordangervais587]

When you make it to simcoe for some “jumbo” perch, I’d love to show you out! Awesome video!

[@TheAverageJoesFishingShow]

I’m hoping to fish Simcoe once this winter, never been on that lake!

[@alexs3447]

lots of speckle colours in those splake Brendan . Nice catch

[@TheAverageJoesFishingShow]

They definitely do favour the speckle reds!

[@davehendrick5497]

Good job Brendan, and nice you focus on staying on top of the ice. You and Lyle grew up on ice and learning. But great to explain to others as some haven't had that luxury. Awesome content

[@TheAverageJoesFishingShow]

Definitely good to help the new guys with staying topside lol Thanks Dave!

[@byronnorlock2481]

This is a great video Brandon I like how you showed the footage of the splake hitting and spitting the bait. That's trout fishin! Beauty splake you got aswell. If your up for it I'd like to host you up in the calabogie area for a show!

[@TheCanadianBeaver]

I would be interested in joining you lads for a good fish. 🇨🇦🦫

[@TheAverageJoesFishingShow]

It was so cool capturing that! I’m very excited for getting more underwater footage all winter! Glad you enjoyed it Byron! I’ll let you know if we’re ever looking to come out that way!

[@cs6032]

Great video. Awesome to see some focus on safety.

[@TheAverageJoesFishingShow]

Thank you! I know it’s a bit dry to watch if you know about it already but it’s always a good reminder especially this time of year when accidents are prone to happen!

[@TimeOnTheLake]

Looked unreal man! Gets me fired up to on the ice

[@TheAverageJoesFishingShow]

This weekend we’re gonna HAMMER them together!

[@TheNewMediaoftheDawn]

Nice lovely fish and meal🎉. I use birch bark as a fire starter, but plate works too😊

[@TheAverageJoesFishingShow]

First time using it as a plate, had to think of my feet haha Thanks for watching!

[@Live2Fish_Online]

awesome video Brandon!! Nice splake too!! Love when they hit the jigging rod!!

[@TheAverageJoesFishingShow]

Thanks man! They really dogged me good on that light action setup! Fun fighting them!

[@Live2Fish_Online]

@ I almost feel like those longer lighter rods are better for landing them…less pulled hooks! But maybe that’s just me pulling to hard lol

[@BevHendrick-mb9bx]

[@reelcanadianlunkerhunter7574]

New Sub. I believe we are in same general area… be great to hook up pardon the pun

[@TheAverageJoesFishingShow]

Nice buddy, Ottawa Valley area!

[@TheCanadianBeaver]

Way to go Brendan. Those splake you caught were fricken big. I have been craving a shore lunch for far too long and wish I was there to enjoy the great eats with you. I am from Canada's capital national region and always willing to do a collaboration with a fellow content creator. I wish you all the best this Winter season and hoping you follow your nose in the right direction. 🇨🇦🦫

[@TheAverageJoesFishingShow]

Thanks man! They were definitely nicer sized ones! Still searching for the elusive double digit splake haha Shore lunches are the best! Best of luck to you this winter also, if I’m ever out Ottawa area fishing I’ll let you know
