Ice Fishing For GIANT PIKE! | SLAY DAY!!

Ice Fishing for GIANT PIKE IS BACK! If I could only fish for one fish for the rest of my life, I think Pike would have an honest chance at being that species. I would rather not it be the only fish I fish for, but I do love chasing GIANT GATORS!

Fun fact: Clayton is the most accurate fish measurement estimator on KZbin.

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

I would not argue with that statement lol :)

[@wstout4]

Most accurate fish estimator alive***

[@recordfishhunter9234]

That was priceless to see the smile on Carter's face when the fish was ripping drag great job Carter that's what it's all about, you the man ! Congrats Carter on your PB that was sick bro !

[@jimjanik720]

Carter put on a show for this one. Great job 👏 congrats on the pb

[@dalbert4991]

Clayton, I always see comments that you and your channel are the best on KZbin...not gonna lie...the people are probably right. Man, your patience, passion and excitement are so contagious. I can't imagine how many people you've motivated to "get outside"!! Keep it coming my brother. 😊🐟 Good stuff!

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

I appreciate the kind words! I am just trying to make fun, educational and entertaining videos all at the same time :)

[@brentpitsenburger1081]

MN catfisherman here. As others have said, you don't need to let them eat it forever. Also, you should offset your circle hooks a bit with a pliers. This helps a lot too! Additionally, use a BIG circle hook. As big as you can get away with. The bigger gap tends to help a ton with big baits. Also a knotless knot works well to act as a triggering effect. Look it up and you will see what I mean. Awesome video! Love that you're trying different tactics as I always wondered about circle hooks for winter tipup fishing. I've caught 30 catfish in a night with all of them being hooked shallow in the mouth. I've also caught dogfish on them and both fish swallowed it completely. They do work with some fish but maybe not all?

[@savior5315]

Awesome to see Clayton and Carter share those big fish moments together as fishing buds. Good job with this episode and keep up the good work!

[@chrislaprise398]

Massive fish! Congrats!

[@justjerkingitoutdoors-mn6755]

[@giglefest]

That footage is awesome!

[@fishn365]

"Not bad.." That Carter, he's friggin awesome! Thanks, Clayton, for making sure on a rainy day here in New York, at least I can watch some great fishing!

[@travisterwilliger8952]

Keep up the good videos man definitely some of the best ice fishing content out there I learn so much watching your videos

I could only hope my boys have the same smile on their faces when they get to be his age. You can see the pure enjoyment. What a great relationship you guys have.

[@myl5483]

[@ephraim1080]

Good job guys

[@joecalhounschasintailguide6703]

That video was awesome!!! What an average ! I love that you have so many underwater cameras going and lots on cameras top side as well. Always makes for such an enjoyable video to watch.

[@samsquanchoutdoors.6271]

Holy cow I thought I accidentally clicked on how bit coined is mined with that Command center! Great video!

[@mattbrown7483]

Another awesome video Clayton. Congratulations to Carter on his PB pike. You guys slayed them, 3 over 41" wow.

[@robkreutzwieser9162]

Great video Clayton keep them coming. Carters smile on his face when that fish took drag is priceless.

[@joshjo9184]

Watch out that boy is going to take over your chanel. Great job to the both of you.

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

I am ok with that :)

[@joshjo9184]

Dang right. Pass on the fishing passion and mojo. In the end things are just things but knowledge is everything.

[@crwildmb]

Mr Clayton and carter do it best. Pike like that are what dreams are made of!

[@Billybob-cr2dg]

Nice gators guys , congratulations on the new pb!

[@peterkbp3948]

nice catch and release !!!

[@MrHarryson1985]

Looking and sounding a thousand percent better Clayton!

[@Felidor101]

Love the door on the pro lodge. I hope they implement it on other sizes of their hubs. I've been thinking about picking up the cabin hub when I want to pack light on short solo trips instead of dragging out the resort by myself.

[@crossfamilyfun]

Yea buddy, I love watching you bring in those giant pike.

[@jimstone1404]

Those cameras are amazing…..people never really knew how long or how many times those fish come back for another look. I am def. getting one 👍 Love pike fishing.

[@TheMaddag]

That's badass!

[@robertsanders6463]

Nice fish!!!!!

[@MrHyde-dt1sx]

Nice work!

[@330Maniac]

Wow man!!! So many GIANTS!!!

[@megadeth6756]

unreal!!!

[@douaher9646]

Nothing but AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME big fish 🐟 love it...

[@brycef35]

I use circle hooks on my lindy rigs when I troll in the summer. Works great.

[@kylejordan2654]

I love how when you're out with Carter you're him have the fish!

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

Would rather have him catch the fish :)

[@billlere9262]

Congratulations Carter. That was really fun to watch. Clayton is a super guy to have in your life. I'm smiling too.

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

Thanks for the kind words!

[@chrislaprise398]

Nice 44 1/2 pike, that fish was huge! Congrats!!

[@grantjamrock3812]

I run circle hooks on my Finicky foolers as well 🙌

[@fierceoutdoors]

Nice pike guys and great video.

[@coyakbrian3411]

Dynamic duo!

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

YES!

[@woodsfamily1986]

man your dialled! always love the vids! very good role model for carter! keep up the great work!

[@ItsChoeTime]

Amazing to see the fooler in action!! The hole covers are incredible in colder conditions!!!

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

They are nice!

[@ReelLifeWithMike]

So many new things to try ha ha. It looks like the pike passion has opened again. Time to go find some. Another awesome vid packed with info

[@martinhamata2315]

I've fished big pike in open water and hard water with circle hooks. I've found you can set the hook fairly quick, with a "sweeping" hook set, and then you get that corner of the mouth hook-up. Hope this helps!

[@johnjones-sv9pe]

how did I miss this? Amazing fish caught. You guys rock!!

[@outdoorsmanal1759]

better production quality and way more interesting then half the shows on outdoor TV! gotta love that big command center you got set up! hahaha

[@grantjamrock3812]

Could you go over how you tie your 7x7 leader wire? Like what knot amd how many wraps?

[@Levers103]

Great content, great video! I think it’s great that you’re getting Carter Involved with this! This is what it’s all about! Making great memories, and for you and added bonus; videos to look back on forever. Keep up the great work!

[@drewshepard8002]

Hey, I just found your channel, and it’s got some of the best ice fishing content on KZbin! Thank you so much! I’m getting so excited for this upcoming ice season. I hope to see some more pike this year, keep ‘em coming, man. 👍👍

[@bassfishingcanada]

Watching on my lunch hour !

[@huntin4life99]

This is awesome to watch. Caught quite a few today within the 30’s and with the biggest being 39, had the off set on the circle hook and gullet hooked 3 of them. I’ll be sure to try out no off-set on the circle hook. Thanks for the tip!

[@braydanspry8090]

Omg I wish that would be a blast of a life time

[@bottompin796]

I love the Finicky Foolers! I run mine with Okuma bait feeders and it’s an awesome combo!

[@nickturnmire4549]

Love the bait feeder reels make it so much easier not having to adjust your drag

[@jbabydababy5742]

Clayton guessed to the inch every fish... unreal!

[@1yanny1]

LOVE IT!!!

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

Cheers man!

[@joecalhounschasintailguide6703]

Can't wait! Gonna be great I just know it

[@chewiepac5932]

Say clayton first hello from alaska, when your useing circle hooks for pike its not really settin the hook like lakers. Its more bring in line till you feel it resist let off and then kinda just fast lift the tip of your pole so the circle hook gets past the gill raker teeth, you want the hook to kinda make a pop or a quick very small jerk

[@landoncomeau4903]

Octopus Circles is my go to on tip ups. They work great!

[@nolan5welwood]

Wow that footage is going to be hard to top! Next to none! Keep up the great work this video was unbelievably wicked!!!

[@adammead8197]

Great vid bud! Congrats to Carter!

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

Cheers!

[@douglasdeboerjr9867]

Try octopus hooks they work great you can off set the hook as well

[@shandonbradfordoutdoors]

Awesome video! I usually let them just bend the rod over with circle hooks without reeling for 3-5 seconds, then start reeling.

[@bradmcclure4553]

Awesome video yea no offset in the hook or you have to use snell knot

[@creatorwords4113]

Clayton, great video. Watching you mentor Carter was a pleasure. The underwater video superb!

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

Thanks for the kind words!

[@FishermanX]

When I drift live baits for Stripers on the big lake I set the drag so it's loose enough to run and tight enough to get the hook to turn into place. Most fish are hooked in the corner or top of the mouth. My tip ups have J hooks and dead sticks circle hooks

[@zackpotter765]

Awesome so jealous!! Pike are my favorite fish

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

Might be mine too!

[@golfishuntim]

Those pike were giants! Nice work! Love my Finiky Foolers too!

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

Was an awesome day!

[@korycolorado]

Ooo now pikestravaganza!!

[@sonnenburgoutdoors]

Excellent video as always!! I have used circle hooks for years for walleye and have worked as you described . But no offset!! Thanks so much!!!

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

I really like the concept.

[@o0l0s0o0n]

got dang the production with the underwater cameras and the command center is amazing! fun video to watch. congrats carter on the PB

[@braydenjones7014]

Great content Clayton! I think you were hooking the fish in the gullet because you were letting the fish eat it so long. I could be wrong but that’s my opinion

[@shaundiltz5821]

I only use circles for catfish

[@mattress2331]

Great job

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

Cheers!

[@jeffk2501]

Great job Carter!!! Hoping to see you much more. Awesome fish. Catching 3 fish is ok if they are that big.

[@bigbitesoutdoors1300]

For circle hooks, you want to have quite a bit of the hook exposed. From what I saw you put it pretty deep in the bait, which kind of makes sense why it kept going deeper down. Love your content, keep it up! Hello from Alberta

[@chadheydt8221]

Hey Clay...love circle hooks💜try the VMC sure set treble hooks😇

[@marcgagnon1679]

Awsome video like always 👌...

[@adventuresbeingconquered]

I love the command station. 🤣 Where do you get those slick hole covers?

[@lukejensen3486]

Awesome video. I started using the fineky fooler last season. Really impressed with it. Caught a lot of walleyes and Pike on them. Really shines on those cold days. I put a small peace of shrink tube just below the orange flag, and you can attach a light for night time fishing.

[@Craig96436]

Carter should real in every fish in every episode. Well done gents!

[@jasoncross8940]

We use circle hooks for catfish on the Red

[@braiden_04]

I Literally just started ice fishing this year. And I hope to get something set up like you also love to see you fishing with your son. Hoping to get my 4 year old out . Your awesome man

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

Hope you get out there with your young one!

[@droptinetackle]

Some tank pike!! I started running circle hooks rigging for walleye a few years ago. I won't go back to an octopus hook again, it's so nice when they are all hooked in the corner of the mouth. We definitely missed a few fish trying get the hang of it. If the circle hook has an offset eye, use a snell knot or a knot that ties to the shaft of the hook and not the eyelet. Keep tying them, you will grow to like them.

[@randygagnon9175]

Excellent video!

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

Cheers!

[@wall-iflex2452]

This are easily my favorite videos so cool to see the pike eat down there amd swim around I cant believe the moster pike fishing you have out there Awesome

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

So much fun to watch them!

[@wall-iflex2452]

@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors totally sick

[@nellieupnorth4960]

Awesome video! You guys make quite the fishing duo

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

We do have fun!

[@nicklabay7846]

I wouldn’t use circle hooks in the winter. I use ‘em for cats, sturgeon and pike in the summer but I always use trebles In the winter.

[@victordeppe8730]

The circle hook hardly ever works when you let the fish really choke down the bait. They function as advertised when set on a semi slack line. Good for when bait fishing with a set line right to drag. When they scoop the whole bait up and run right away then on that tight line it goes into the corner. When they have it in the stomach or super deep in the gullet it doesn’t function well,

[@Tinystrom]

Yup awesome for catfishing or any set line! Maybe if you put the line into the snow or something so it sets itself like it should. Interesting concept for tip ups though

[@tannerritchie89]

That pb pike is the same size as my pb musky, that's insane

[@chrisdahms3173]

Luv to see you using the Finicky Fooler Tip-ups. I've been using them since the beginning. Lol, I can't find an easier Tip-up to use. Awesome video. Keep up the good fishing. 👍

[@dr.dockter1482]

Best ice fishing content creator to ever exist. You’re a damn legend. Would like to see if you have anything mounted! Those are some absolute tanks. 25lbs might be my cutoff for one to go on the wall.

[@dextermontague4768]

i would imagine he has some fiberglass replica mounts. that's what i'll do with my bigger fish someday

[@derekmarchak127]

Great video Clayton keep them Coming what was the name of them tip ups

[@nkapiariesjeffbeezos796]

I wonder how well finicky foolers would work with bait casting reel? One could use a clicker style or regular with good adjustment

[@fisher6924]

I use circle hooks for ice fishing. English hooks as well. Works really well when your weeding through small fish looking for a big one. Keeps the younger gen safe and healthy. Possibly hook your bait just under the skin. Reeling in pulls the hooks out easier and let's the hook do its job.
