Fishing for First Ice Crappies - Northern Wisconsin

[@shubhanggupta8833]

*I already own the Battle II combo **enjoyable.fishing** recommend and decided to try a Fierce II combo to carry out to the pier. Works great and for the money they are hard to beat.*

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

Came across your videos today... As someone who has done this for a little while as well, I can appreciate good work. I have only watched this one so far, but it was done VERY well.

[@sudasportfishinggreenbay3198]

Much of the information you shared can take someone years to learn and are the keys to success - very cool of you to share and help others speed up the learning process!

[@TomBoley]

Thanks man! Thanks for watching.

[@Robin23hof]

Thanks for showing the straight on sonar action Tom - dont get that on other other KZbin channels

[@UncleKrusty68]

Thanks Tom, great video explaining how you use the graph.

[@zubertish]

I like that you explained some of the bits of the flasher on this one. I'm new to all this and the depths vs. fish vs. lure marks helped a lot... thanks! Now to figure out how people can tell the potential fish size by the marks... keep hearing folks say "that's a huge mark" but I can't tell... yet.

[@livin4life]

It's great that you explain everything. The shots of the flasher are awesome. You are a good teacher Thanks!

[@spencerwilliams4864]

love the flasher view in the vid bro...keep em coming.

[@chrisreumont]

Love when people show the flasher cam. Nice video.

[@Viciousone87]

Great stuff Tom, ty for the informative videos. I grew up open water fishing, so the tactics you share are really helpful to me. I live in southern WI, so the ice report/fish reports are cool.

[@happycamper9120]

The best ice fishing video I've seen where you actually explain the sonar and rod use. Perfect. Exactly how I would make a video. BTW those are the only rods I use too!

[@greyhunter9287]

Great video Tom. I really appreciated the way you let us see how you used the sonar while fishing. Well done!

_Incredible _*_Video_*_ Congratulations Fisherman!_ _Have a great week of success and good_ *Fishing!* Hug!👍🎣😊

[@aaronwill6738]

Keep it up Tom, really appreciate the videos! Super underrated channel you got here.

[@letitgo8336]

Great job Tom very informative, I got to start ice fishing

[@TomBoley]

Thanks for watching!

[@Asapfishing1]

Dude I love this channel👍🏼💥🐟

[@tombob5553]

Thanks for all the info just getting started.

[@mnsportsman7005]

Nice video. I highly recommend TUCR Bullwhip noodle rod. Has changed the way I’m able to perform panfishing and I’m an avid angler also and it’s the best rod I’ve ever used. Not sponsored or anything. The guides barely ice up and you just barely touch it and all the ice falls off, super sensitive tip that immediately transitions into a great backbone that can handle big fish, and just the right sensitivity tip that you can use in high winds and still detect bites.

[@morganholland1354]

Awesome videos!!

[@tickyssports4212]

Don’t stop the content 🔥

[@michaelprevost1229]

Another very nice video.Thanks for the tips

[@Wisconsin_Fisherman]

Awesome video! Can't wait to see more!

[@mikevang1102]

Love how you have another camera on the flasher doing the split screen.

[@curtanschuetz3434]

Nice work as always!

[@TooFatToHuntOutdoors]

[@aungnyo5576]

Great video

[@reelcanadianlunkerhunter7574]

Great Vid Tom. Tight lines....

[@eddietrevino]

Thanks! I’m learning

[@mattress2331]

Awesome Video Very informative

[@wish2fish37]

Great video for us small lake guys.Lucky if I get a 12 inch crappie on my local lakes .How light of a lure can that rod your using be good for.I use the 1/100th ounce wax tails..Will the rod load up with that rod?Been using a Frabil tungsten spring bobber on my UL ROD.

[@bobcrappies]

Nice crappies !!!!!

[@Asapfishing1]

Also congratulations on 6K!!! I’m abt to hit 5.1K👍🏼💥🐟

[@fishinfool3795]

I'm in SE Wisconsin and I have never experienced ice crappie like that. I have done it with gills on a few occasions. Most of the time the fish just stare at the jig and move real slow. Must be all of the pressure from other fishermen. Hayward is just too far to go regularly. It's like the fish are starving and will eat anything the way they are zooming up to the bait. We have small lakes with dink perch that do that.

[@bkoutdoors4642]

We live on little devils lake we only have couple inches

[@JacobBurks]

Nice catching 👊👊👊

[@bkoutdoors4642]

Where's this at what lake I live in Hayward

[@jeffwenrick7682]

Can you talk about plastics for walleye, perch, gills and crappie? What kind for each species? Do you prefer live bait or plastics? Please always tell us what lures you are using. Thanks!

[@williamstaehely1123]

Nice video, very informative

[@armandorosales3596]

Nice video homie

[@lauraswanson4806]

*The rod is amazing **allabout.wiki/tuld** very strong midsection for setting hooks but very sensitive end for looking for bites and jigging precisely. The reel isn't anything special, I don't plan on it lasting forever but I suppose it doesn't need to be that nice for ice fishing since the fish don't fight as hard.*

[@Callofduty1952]

How are you liking the M1? I just bought one and was wondering how it compares to the vexilars and humminbirds. I’m excited to get out. Nice job !

[@basschaser9356]

Great info. I subscribe

[@jaythojj1365]

I wish it was hard water season already!!!

[@snowpilot9160]

[@markmoreau2968]

Great video as always! Looking at buying an electric auger. Any in particular you would recommend?

[@TomBoley]

[@dantulpa]

What lake is that? Im heading up to hayward area later this month but have little to no idea where to lay into some decent fish in that area. Thank you in advance!

[@TomBoley]

Chippewa Flowage, LCO, Grindstone. Those are my favorite lakes.

[@1996waxer]

Is that Upper Red lake ur talking about, near Shawano WI?

[@ironguy1]

Wa Cha Xiong he was at Upper Red Lake MN

[@kzv34952]

Upper Red Lake is near Bemidji, MN. It's roughly 5 hours north of St. Paul/Minneapolis, MN. Went there Thanksgiving weekend and killed it with my buddies.

[@shanereinhard9976]

Tom - It looks like you had about 3 foot of transducer cable out - did you adjust that off camera? I was thinking you want your ducer at the base of the ice?

[@TomBoley]

Ideally yes it would be just below the ice.

[@reelfishingmi2455]

Great videos! If you don’t mind me asking how did you get started out with getting subscribers?

[@TomBoley]

Just made allot of videos.

[@jerrellrice6384]
