Hey Eric, you looked like the teacher today with a class full of students wanting to catch their first steelhead of the season. Thanks for explaining your set up and how the jaw jacker works. You guys have a great fishery there that extends well into the winter months. Great day on the hard water, really enjoyed the video.

[@wibigfishcom]

[@stephenjessicatiefenthaler6537]

Awesome explanation on the set up. Keep dropping the knowledge!

[@wibigfishcom]

Thanks

[@frankjohnson4241]

This is turning into the best channel on KZbin!

[@wibigfishcom]

Wow thanks for the compliment

[@drewrandell6825]

Love the vids, keep um coming! I've had success casting and jigging in Lake Superior but can't seem to figure out Lake Michigan the couple times a year I make it down there....will keep at it!

[@leonhudson1653]

I wish the river that is in Michigan would freeze its not that far from where I live the current is to fast and water to low. I can winter fish it but it seems fun thru the ice

[@Burkefishingoutdoors]

Crushed it guys nice fish 🤘🎣

[@MuskyMobGuideService]

Nice work buddy!

[@tomarmstrong1846]

Where do you buy the blue “ice puck” for the holes not to ice up? Thanks

[@ReefMimic]

Jawjacker!! I bought 2 never had a chance to use them:(

[@shoey64]

Have you guys ever fished on the Michigan side of the lake?

[@JimHerbertOutdoors]

Subscribed. Do you NEED a hooksetter device or could i just use a regular pole and vexilar like normal fishing? Might head up that way in a week or 2. Also do you NEED the egg sacks or would just a minnow work or other basic bait work? Are tip ups allowed out there? Sry for so many questions i just skimmed thru the video didnt watch 100% of it. Thanks

[@tadhghayden8440]

Great fishing...lucky u.....

[@crisjr6478]

I have one or your Haat rods and it’s epic. I live in Vermont I’ve caught lakers, pike, and smallmouth through the ice with it.

[@wibigfishcom]

Thanks so much greatly appreciate the support and glad you love it!

[@mathewlesniowski761]

It the ice safe there and love the videos I wish I can catch a steelhead and brown like that but light lines

[@baldwinframnes2804]

I’m going to try this

[@NothinFancyFishing]

Thanks for great advice, as usual! I am wondering if you use a certain rod for fishing these large trout, and what test you prefer? I have only ice fished for panfish and am wondering if this would require all new rod/reel/line setup. TIA!

[@wibigfishcom]

A 40” medium Haat Rod is my preferred rod with 8lb mono

[@TripFishingMyLife]

Great video.. 👍

[@firstlightangler6049]

Hey Eric, I’m coming to Racine from central Illinois. Can I park where you parked in between that restaurant and the Pugh marina? Or do you have permission? It looks like the only other place to park is down at the Pugh recreation area and then walk up river. Long walk to recharge auger battery’s… Thanks for any info you can provide. Also, awesome video, hope I can catch a couple.

[@rsmukalla]

Hey Eric, I’m looking to buy two ice rods and reels able to handle the Jawjacker setup and if possible still go for smaller fish inland. Is this type of setup possible? Also looked on your site and most of the rods are sold out could you recommend some similar st croix rods or similar? Usually like to support local companies but also saw Jawjacker says Jason Mitchell poles work well. Thanks liking all the videos just subscribed

[@wibigfishcom]

We appreciate the support! Our rods will be back in stock on the site on Wednesday. The Jaw Jackers work great with a lot of different rods because of the very fine tuning they provide. I would recommend our 40” medium for that type of application.

[@rsmukalla]

I was on your site again yesterday evening and it said the rods were sold out still…. Is there a st croix or Jason Mitchell you could recommend for the time being want to get one for this season

[@blakearrowsmith7446]

awesome video!!!

[@leebarnes393]

PS! Like mice racing to the cheese! Just remember the second mouse gets the cheese! Be careful!

[@mikemckelvey4709]

What kind of line do you use and what lbs

[@yajtramer6913]

Wow Sweet

[@richardpeterjoseph1]

How come you aren't using a gaff?

[@ReefMimic]

What’s the bobber purpose? Brand?

[@Joe_power]

Great video …

[@wibigfishcom]

Thanks appreciate the comment

[@Steve-qg3ym]

Great video! I have one of your bait casting rods and love it. Which spinning rod would you recommend for 20 - 25 inch Lakers thru the ice? Usually using a lot of 3/8 to 3/4 ounce jig heads.

[@Steve-qg3ym]

Would these 40 inch jaw jacker rods make fun jigging rods?

[@wibigfishcom]

Yes they make great jigging rods for trout as well as hooksetting devices. We designed them to be very universal!

[@abigfishinasmallpond]

I landed a 36 " laker on a 36 " uglystick ice rod using 30 lbs braid and 12 lbs fluoro a 1/16 jig head and a orange power nymph

[@robsimons1163]

Do you ever keep and eat them?

[@joekloskey8928]

THOSE TYPE ARE GOOD EATERS

[@wibigfishcom]

Yes they are solid I prefer steelhead.

[@randyschultz4549]

Hey eric would your hotrods be good for jiging walleyes????do u have different action rods???how much are they???

[@wibigfishcom]

Yes they work great! I recommend our 36” ML for walleyes. U can check out our different rods and pricing at www.haatfishing.com We appreciate the support!

[@randyschultz4549]

@@wibigfishcom thank you buddy!!!

[@sunnyyang7880]

Where would you park to fish that area? Thanks.

[@mick8018]

hey guys. that "chrome brown" looked a lot like an atlantic salmon complete with a forked tail... you sure it was a brown? stop the clip at 6:32

[@wibigfishcom]

Positive it’s a brown trout

[@jamesevans5481]

Can any body go there and fish? think it would be mobbed with people

[@wibigfishcom]

Yes it’s all public

[@10wjlaudio07]

🎣🇺🇲

[@montana12810]

[@wibigfishcom]
