The cadence lesson might be the best ice fishing walleye info people could get. Nice job guys!

[@JimBowSlice]

Its all about the angle of thy dangle

[@alexdenniston970]

So fricken true. And honestly that can just apply to improving your fishing all around. Remembering what you did to trigger that bite and repeating that in the future can be such a huge game changer

[@BloemendaalFishing]

So cool! Welcome to ND, and can't wait for the rest of the videos! Also, how cool of a guy must JH be to fishing with?! What a riot.

[@ssdpqd2531]

You need a vid in Idaho for JUMBO perch! Please go soon!

[@330Maniac]

Man this was great!!! Devils lake is such a special place! I got my PB pike 44.5" there 2 years ago. It's like my second home!

[@dr.dockter1482]

Couldn’t be happier to see you fishing in my neck of the woods! Nice work! Can’t wait to see the rest of the footage!!!

[@traviskirby395]

I love your content Jay. Thank you for all the great hours of time spent together

[@kevinskalicky393]

Some small club walleye derbys! 😂😂 I laughed.

[@jeremypope5214]

My two favorite guys too watch! Glad to see you get hooked up with Jason Mitchell. I'll be heading up to Devils Lake to start fishing Wednesday!

[@marcus_stabe]

Welcome to the states, Jay! Great video per usual. I'm heading to Devil's in March! Look forward to the rest of the content from your trip!

[@hardwaterfanatic]

Fishing with a couple of great guys Jay! I've had the pleasure of meeting Jason and he has to be one of the most genuine, down to earth guys you'll meet!

[@DieHardAngling]

Yes sir you should come fish Green Bay sometime for giant walleyes or smallies! Here in door county we have some of the best walleye fishing and one of the best smallie fishery’s in the world!!!

[@justinsalzl1517]

Great video! I love watching you and learning some new things. I fish Devils Lake, and Winnipeg as well. Fun to see the footage when I can’t get out there. Keep it up!

[@CARLBP]

Great Video Jay. I love when KZbinrs do collabs like this. Look forward to the rest of the video in this trip. I hope Jason makes it back from South Dakota to fish with you. Cheers

[@coltonblombergfishing4445]

John is an incredible guy! I’ve had the opportunity to fish with him once and it was awesome!!

[@MTBowhunter24]

Both Jason and Hoyer are PHENOMENAL dudes!!! I had the pleasure of meeting both of them and they are great!!

[@LeonTrump2024]

Wooow. It’s so cool to see you link up with the big dogs in the last year or so. I can totally see you in his shoes in a decade or two.

[@ryaneveley6337]

that's awesome me and my best friend got a 34" eye on the french and I got it stuffed for his 30th bd for him .. never seen another one before

[@farsideoutdoors2023]

Hey Jay I seen this video and saw the Canadian Angle with Steve Rinella, I missed ya! I was working out in Devils Lake the time you were there and I wish I could have met you guys! The videos you did in DL have inspired me to get a video project going for Devils Lake, Hope to meet you and Steve on the ice someday you're both an asset to the industry!!!

[@joshdewitt8796]

So awesome to see you fish with John! He’s a great guy!

[@jimmykav44]

Awesome video, Jay. Cool to see John's cadence lesson in there.

[@ajlapoint4642]

[@mikehuff2173]

Fishing ND! I love it! I would love to come grab a handshake since you are in town. Great video as always!

[@cadesteffan278]

I bet it was exciting to meet thee Jason Mitchel. I got to meet him at the Scheels in Bismarck ND and I would say it was one of the coolest things ever.

[@brandon4246]

Jason is the GOAT!!

[@acmund]

I've met Jason Mitchell...he is actually that nice! One of the best teachers in the game!

[@donchart1]

[@sdsswanson]

Jmo is such a nice down to earth guy. Can’t beat him.

[@FishingNorthernOntarioCanada]

Northern Ontario Had some amazing Perch fishing this past year id go as far as saying best in the country I’m talking giants off Lake Superior basically untouched an Un pressured , Top notch scenery as you are surrounded by the changing of the leaves something to see 👍 great video Jay what a treat to learn some cadence techniques from John a NWT champion 🎣🎣

[@NDhunter78]

Glad you were able to experience the great outdoors in ND, next time give me a heads up.

[@xanderschoville]

Awesome vid keep it up 👍🏻🔥

[@stevensulikowski6620]

A huge shout out to Jay Siemens getting the Manitoba Showcase on Angling Buzz - congratulations Jay - you made the big time brother!!!

[@joef.2908]

I'll be visiting JMO headquarters in march! The Minnesota cadence is strong! I was literally teaching my 7 and 10 year olds the same thing today 🤘

[@creekriseoutdoors]

Awesome day of fishing! Get some of Johns fish tacos when you get a chance, had em’ a few months ago when he was ripping lips here in Florida! Great video!

[@youtubzkoz]

Only place I have ever Ice fished! from AZ and worked up there! went for a trip with a Wisconsin buddy and it was awesome!

[@youtubzkoz]

Cafe in downtown DL is awesome!

[@drewkryger1102]

Rad guy that Jason!!!

[@WildmanOutdoors]

I definitely want to stay there when we plan a trip to devils.

[@hunt_trap_fish]

John has it right. Perch are the best. I love a good walleye fry, but perch are the absolute best! I love targeting those little gold nuggets. They’re so fun to catch and so wonderful to eat!

[@ssdpqd2531]

Jason Mitchell is beyond cool!

[@lesliestranger4790]

Nice.....can't get enough ice fishing lol, man Jay gets around wonder how much lakes he fished???good fisherman none the less. I'm 42 started fishing 2 years ago and got hooked bad 😆 got the fever 🤒 fishing fever 😆🤣

[@bradenharder3504]

one of the days you should head up to lake alice/irvine. its a very unique fishery that is connected to devils lake. Im a local fishing guide and its one of my favorite lakes to fish.

[@cieser128]

fished devils lake this summer and couldn’t get on them, had about 12 walleye but none over 14 inches probably, then there was a youth tournament a couple days after and 3 guys had a bag of somewhere around 35 pounds

[@markkonopacki6898]

Nice!

[@PK-zq2st]

Live 50 miles west of devils Lake pretty awesome

[@dominicf626]

You should try stump lake one of my favorite lakes to fish around here in ND the fish can be really skiddish and hard to catch but they can also be fired up.

[@erikiversen6607]

Loved the video! Any chance you could plan a Michigan fishing trip at some point? Would be interested in seeing that

[@swccgtothemoon3296]

Perch fishing is the best!!

[@chadthiem8371]

Lol i know Jon Probably know but that Clam Reel tape is awesome

[@cody4312]

Best notification I ever get is “Jay Siemens”

[@TheeKid22]

Literally why I'm watching this video now lol

[@peachypeaches6288]

Jay Siemens ft. CSO or Uncut Angling is also good 👍

[@BozhidarS]

Or Meat Eater... with a new episode of the Canadian Angle

[@fishing_amy]

Awesome

[@nic4573]

Love JMO too! You're getting connected Jay!

[@jaybaker9684]

Well damn someone I watch other than Jason Mitchell came to devils lake and didn't even know or get to meet him

[@JimBowSlice]

How great is ur career shaping up? Man congratulations jay. Lets see steve rinella soon lol congrats on that as well.

[@Projectred93]

Must be a drinking day with the wind today? Haha I'm from Devils Lake

[@andrewrobyn2864]

Come.on over to Old Minnesota Jay!! Grand Rapids Minnesota brotha!!

[@brodyngreening9415]

I live in devils lake!!!! I am a big fan!!!!

[@machew2009]

[@brodyngreening9415]

I live in DevilsLake!!!! I am a big fan

[@dalbert4991]

Your guy in ND has a BIG set up!!

[@jackhendrickson2279]

Devils lake awesome

[@Ksedi2015]

Just a few hours north of me! Do a meet up in ND!

[@danhuhti8268]

Love devils lake, duck hunted there for 15 years.

[@matmoser5563]

When I was younger, my dad and I would go out every winter ice fishing. We would stay at Lakeview lodge. Sadly, the owners are retiring and have sold or are in the process of selling the lodge. They do live in a house right there though that I helped build. John and Maria are their names if you would get that way

[@samsouth5407]

Awesome Vid Jay! how do you like that eskimo eskape 2800? I have been looking at buying one for myself and father

[@tacklecentralfishing1051]

Come over to Minnesota

[@loganpoindexter1336]

John might have the nicest hook set I’ve see

[@Luxjr4431]

Love for you to a video on on your livescope settings. Bought on and my screen doesn't look anything like yours.

[@eriknodell602]

Great video Jay , so much good information. What kind of mount are you using for your live scope transducer? Looks much sturdier than the factory one provided by Garmin.

[@caleface1]

Next time you should come to sakakawea for walleyes. I could put you up right on the lake .

[@wyattwaldo9384]

Hey Jay I would never guess that you would be fishing in North Dakota or even at my home town of Devils lake. I wish I didn’t live two hours away in Bismarck and had the opportunity to meet you. Maybe one day we could me and maybe fish together. Good luck and hope that you enjoy North Dakota

[@billdollevoet5076]

Your first reaction after eating white bass is priceless. I put it in the same class as catfish, the taste is not very good.

[@robclark1215]

Awesome video Jay!! How's Devil's Lake?

[@jaronmcmullin8030]

Great video. What part of the lake were you fishing? We did really well on Black Tiger Bay last week in the Snobear :)

[@martinlarkin9624]

Jay, another great video. You may want to invest in a phone tether to protect that investment when fishing close to those hole. Keep up the great ice content.

[@donowen5889]

That walleye had stripes!

[@cardfishing506]

Definitely should checked out stump lake I hear they have some gaint perch !!

[@cardfishing506]

Literally just watched Jason Mitchells video on stump lake
