Ice Season Recap + FREE GIVEAWAY!

[@craigcooper6818]

Great videos, awesome local content! Best memories are all on the ice.

[@dongrant7349]

Great action. Best memory was watching my son catch his first whitiey when he was 7 yo on a Meegs.

[@H4L]

Best moment was catching my first ever shallow water Simcoe laker. Boy do they ever fight different in 24 feet of water. Left, right, up down. Keeping your line off the end of the ice is a constant worry, but wow is it ever fun. Thanks for the videos throughout the season Steve!

[@ryantinsdill5950]

Hey Steve! Awesome videos! My favourite memory ice fishing was this year, closer for whities and Lakers. I had a solo trip and it was my best day fishing on the ice yet! Finally learned the meegs jig and put a beating on them. Can't wait for the next hard water season! Keep up the videos! Thanks!

[@martinwales3172]

Best memories are getting the kids out and watching them having a blast hammering some dink perch .

[@bwiillyy3031]

My Fav thing about this season was hooking into my FIRST ever laker through the ice! Just moved north from southern Ontario normally catching perch through the ice . My fav video of yours this season has to be the closing day one to get a laker like that on the last day of the season must of been unreal! Thanks for your videos there awesome

[@990jeffro]

Love all the vids. I have learned a lot from watching them. My fav memory from this hard water season was while fishing with my brother I tied on the drifter for the first time while watching a live feed from sea bass. I asked him how he liked the new bait and before he could even reply I landed my first ever laker thru the ice. Best day we had all season. Keep up the great vids.

[@OutdoorsygalO]

Favourite memory of ice fishing: Catching some awesome whities with Meegs (lost one of the lures! LOL!) and the memorable sunsets and wintery scenes that can only been seen while out on the ice; beautiful!

[@nickb4684]

getting out one last time with my grandfather due to illness, he hasn't been able to get out the last couple years as he is 85 but managed to get him out one last time. Spent a couple hours on the ice and managed to get him into some nice whiteys. hands down best day on the ice and something ill remember forever.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Nick B cherish those memories

[@jkaas65]

Great season. My favourite memory is getting on the ice for the first time each season and landing that first fish. Thanks.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

jkaas65 we wait months for it

[@lavingunn4468]

First time hardwater in January. Ling, whitie and laker.

[@jcakes8528]

Great vids. From landing monsters to seeing you set the hook on a whitie as you fumble the rod in the air or dealing with a temperamental sled trying to start it after a day out. Good honest footage that never fails to entertain. My most memorable moment was was dragging my wife out for perch last season. Once she got in the swing of things I had no time to fish as I was taking fish off and baiting her rig. This season she made every single outing and has out fished me most days.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Jcakes wives seem to outfish us all the time

[@hamzahafejee8923]

I had an epic season I caught my first laker ever this year and it was the best fight I've ever had through the ice and it was on a MEEJ WHICH WAS AWESOME. was my first time using a meeg also. Great season

[@anthonyrivera3555]

My favorite memory would have to be this year when I caught a giant pike with my two buddy's up in Wisconsin.

[@bettyjo1341]

Hi Steve. My favorite ice fishing memory from this season was catching two 25", one 26" and one 27" walleye all in the same day. Not masters, but my personal best 😊

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Betty Jo those are great fish

[@samtheman9424]

Hello Steve I am 14 and I live 3 hours from you in Bancroft and you and seb have inspired my to fish more lakers thru the ice. The best ice fishing memory I have is when we were fishing for lakers in 50 feet of water and my 11 year old brother hooked into a 38 inch 14 pound pike and I helped him bring it in and land it and it was the biggest pike he had ever caught and the biggest fish of his life and it made me so happy to see the smile on his face when we landed it and he said it's bigger than any fish you have ever caught and I had to agree with him.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Sam the bushcraft Man that's awesome. Big pike through the ice

[@samtheman9424]

Ya it was pretty big but I've seen 20 pounders come out of that lake but that fish came out of 50 feet of water while fishing a rock face for lakers

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Congrats Sam, you're the winner. Email me at [e-mail] with your address

[@vincentpaquot2840]

My favorite memory this season was this past weekend....after having been skunked for lakers this year on Simcoe I took a trip up north and skied ten km into a lake and camped for the weekend caught and realeased 15 lakers in one day... mission accomplished... my other good memory was catching a five pound large mouth on couch closing day on my perch rod ...???? Never would have thought . Keep up the good work. love your channel see you on the ice next year

[@edwinchho4102]

One of my most favourite ice fishing memory is when me and my dad were on lake simcoe looking for some whitefish . I haven't caught a whitefish ever before. The day seem pretty slow me and my dad were both using vibrates but nothing would bite, so I decided to switch over to a meegs as I followed what Tom from fatal force outfitters did I marked one the gently bounce it on a the bottom I felt that the lure was gone so when I set the hook Fish on! Just 5 min after another fish more and more that day. That's my favourite ice fishing memory on lake simcoe.

[@davevanryn887]

Best memory was watching my old man pull in a 43” musky, on a 1/4 jig head and a 2” minnow while perch fishing. I will never forget

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Dave Van Ryn crazy

[@markstewart8455]

Steve: great videos I've watched faithfully every week. I myself have been out only three times. I'm 53 and when I seen you fishing with the lil boy it was ya man you got that lol guy hooked for sure. Good luck brother the summer. If your line isn't wet you will never catch!

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Mark STEWART thanks man, he's hooked and I love it

[@jamesaxford3562]

Best memory by far fist lake simcoe lake trout opening day. Was about to pack it in after a day of no bites said one more try with the swim bait and it never even reached the bottom 33 inch trout came up and slammed it

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

James Axford love it

[@austinloggie7491]

My memory was being able to catch fish after watching all of your videos and seabass. Being able to meet you guys and talk about techniques listening to the seminar at the show. It’s all the little things that you guys have done that turned my season into my best one yet. Much appreciated.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Austin Loggie thanks buddy. Good job.

[@timh8257]

My favorite memory this season was smelt fishing (yes smelt fishing) in an inland lake in the NW corner of the lower peninsula in Michigan. Was so much fun in that green light we put under the ice.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Tim Hossack that would be fun

[@MUCCI416]

Great season SR lots of slime, fav memory has to be my buddy hooking up with a burbot for the first time and the look on his face when it came through the hole! Can't wait to see some early season pike action

[@joshbaker2105]

I went out with Tom this year and had a wild day. But my favorite time ever was this January on a small inland lake watching my son get his first little pike through the ice. It’s amazing how excited the little ones get. Great season over all now can’t wait to get the boat out.

[@matthewtallman4585]

Favorite Ice Moment was watching my 7yo neighbor spot her first fish on the Humminbird, hook-up and land her first Walleye. Priceless!!

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Matthew Tallman priceless indeed

[@surfingfireman]

Fav memory was Tom schooling you on how to use a Meegs and therefore schooling me on how to use a Meegs. I caught a lot more fish after that. Thanks.

[@Jakes_Hooked_Up]

A good memory from this year is loosing a rod down the hole twice in one day and catching it both times in my second hole, thankfully fish was gone.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Jacob D'Aurizio been there. Best feeling when it comes back up

[@Zuperalexu25]

I wouldn't say this is the best memory but I will certainly remember it for ever. At the beginning of the season me and a couple of buddies went searching for splake. We went to a lake that produced very well for us last year. We moved around all over the lake, tried different depths, used all the lures in the tackle box only to get skunked. All 3 of us. But you know what they say: a day on the water is better than any day in the office, or is it? When we came back to the car it felt like a scene in that stupid comedy : Dude, where is my car? The car was no longer where I left it... No idea what happened to it. So here we were, the 3 of us stranded on the side of the road, in the middle of nowhere with a bunch of gear, almost night outside, minus 20 degrees and the phones dead. Lovely. At least there were no kids and no significant others with us lool. Not too many cars passing by either. Took 15 minutes for someone to stop. I asked to borrow the phone and I called police. They told me my car was towed. Beautiful. I got the towing company number. 45 km away. Back to waiving at cars to stop so I can get a ride to pick up the car as the towing company said they will take 1h30min to come and get me. So after 30 minutes a nice young couple stopped and offered to take me. One hour later I picked up my car. Gave my saviors $20 for their kind ride. Paid the tow truck $113 to get my car back. Wished them Merry Christmas as it was right before Christmas. And back I went to pick up my friends from the side of the road. Another hour drive. One of them caught a bad cold that day...oh well. That's my story. Hope you guys enjoyed it.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Alex Ardeleanu Joe Rogan did a podcast where he talked about different levels of fun... like roller coasters are fun in the moment but you don't remember those things. The experiences that pit you through shit are the ones you look back at and tell stories of. They're the most fun.

[@stevevanharten9995]

Perch fishing with my 5 yr son and his excitement is the best for me.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Steve Van Harten so much fun

[@0nesandtwos]

Favourite memory was going out with my girlfriend in an overnight hut. It was both of our first time and we got skunked but still had a blast.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

0nesandtwos hope you got wet anyways 😂😂

[@0nesandtwos]

Steve Rowbotham I was hoping for that too but didn't go as planned haha. I was with bear point and it was when we got rain in mid-late February. One of the blocks holding up our hut came loose in the middle of the night and ended up in our hole so the whole shack was completely on an angle. Did my best to fix it but was still pretty wobbly with the uneven ice. She wasnt too happy but was still fun. 😂

[@MatthewMazFishing]

My favourite video was actually the video where tom taught you how to use the meegs. I would love to myself learn that technique. It was amazing how one subtle change in how you fish the jig can change your catch rate so significantly. just goes to show that sometimes its not that the fish arent biting that lure, but you just arent fishing it the way they want it. Demonstrates the importance of learning to fish a bait properly. really interesting in my eyes. in terms of my personal favourite memory, it was my first time ice fishing ever which was this year for perch and we absolutely smacked them, caught roughly 50 fish each between three of us. Ive tried for whitefish and lakers but have had no luck. hopefuly if I win, these meegs will help me out LOL #tightLines and keep fishing!

[@jmerasty76]

Steve, my best ice fishing memory happened this past ice season with a fish I didn't even catch. My daughter is 10 and has come out numerous times and got skunked until this year. She baited her jig on her own and a few hours goes by. My other daughter needed me so I left the 10 year old in the tent alone. Well wouldn't you know it, she caught her first fish through the ice and landed it herself. It wasn't a keeper pike but it was a trophy in her eyes and better than any other fish I've ever caught when I saw the look of pride in her face when I came back in the tent. I'd love some Meegz jigs to share with her for next year. She's hooked now.

[@Morninggroup]

Favourite memory when I was 3 years old my dad took me ice fishing for the first time. We were using ham and cheese slices on tipups and they worked surprisingly well. Caught my first pike that way.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

LBF Outdoors haha you'd catch a Steve too on that setup

[@patrickang84]

My favourite ice fishing memory was catching my first whitefish at the meet up with you Seb and Kevin!

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Patrick Ang thanks for coming out

[@canada6692]

Catching my first laker ever way back when. As well this season falling on my ass with 2 whities because I tripped on the 3rd whitie lol

[@nickilich9299]

It was about 2-3 years ago i had caught 2 jumbos on 1 rippin rap at the same time one on each hook ahahah

[@crib4720]

Pulling in my PB northern

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Ig .outdoorsmen pbs are the best

[@Carlos-gf2ox]

Favourite moment. Having the right tube jig on Cooksbay and grabbing some huge perch The whole day.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Carlos 416 little tweaks can make a world of difference

[@Carlos-gf2ox]

Can’t wait to try that out next season. Next season I will definitely be concentrating on lakers and whitefish. Watching all your videos hyped me up. Just nervous to go way out there.

[@Carlos-gf2ox]

I’m getting excited just thinking about it.

[@mt2nitronut]

my best memory is having a monster pike cruise across a 2 foot by 4 foot hut hole heart started pounding the moment i seen the monsters head it was at least a 5 footer for sure love all your videos Steve great job keep em coming

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Keith MC if I die from a fish induced heart attack I'll be a happy man

[@mikaelrantaoutdoors]

Row the boat! My favorite memory from this past season was sight-fishing a 5.5 lb pike in 8 feet of water using a perch-colored jig rap. Was absolutely crazy.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Mikael Ranta Outdoors sight fishing is the best

[@lastdriftoutdoorswithandre2435]

My favourite memory was when I was on line 4 of Oro about 5 years ago and the wind really picked up and even tho my hut was anchored, my hut still blew away. There was no way I was gonna catch up to my hut but a guys that was flying by on a skidoo raced down the lake and caught my hut and returned it so a really bad day turned around just because of that dude and his nice gesture.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Last Drift Outdoors With Andrew Snoddon bad experiences make the best stories

[@loonytooner3170]

Enjoyed all your 2018 days out there Steve. I do not have one special day to speak of. They were all great days to me. One makes it ,as it goes.

[@fishinforlikes1611]

Great recap man! My favourite icefishing memory was helping my buddy land his first double digit fish through the ice. A big pike on a quickstrike rig just seconds after I faked him out and set his bait-alarm off to mess with him. Now....when do you tell us all the right vs. wrong way to fish a Meegs?!?!

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Fishin' for Likes eventually. It was shown to me, so it's not exactly mine to give lol

[@fishinforlikes1611]

Steve Rowbotham fair enough!

[@mitchwebster7093]

Best memory was hitting double digits numerous times late season after finally figuring out the MEEGS!

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Mitch Webster it's a vacuum

[@codymoorhouse3900]

Came up to Simcoe for 3 days with a couple buds. Caught a pile of whitefish for a couple out of towners. No lakers, but we will be back. Your vid with Tom along with his seminar really helped understand how to use the meeg jig so for that, I thank you!

[@jasonprothero5697]

great job.. awesome season..

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Jason Prothero thanks jay

[@Nado0310]

Best memory would have to be catching my first ling and it was on a meegs too.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Eric Nadeau glad to see then getting more recognition

[@Nado0310]

Steve Rowbotham it doesn't get much better for a bottom bait goby imitation. Lakers whiteys and ling all seem to approve.

[@br8598]

Almost impossible to choose one memory. After going through some old photos I found pictures and videos from a arctic char / rainbow trip in Northern Ontario I did with some friends from high school, the numbers were unbelievable, out of 5 of us, no one caught under 60 fish for the day. Still have a few videos of rainbows literally swimming out of the holes. I'll never forget it.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Bryden Tilley wild

[@thebear905]

Most memorable time ice fishing was from a few years back. Not my best but most memorable. I was using a 5 gallon bucket as a toilet one afternoon as I was trying out a new area for pan fish. ( I have IBS and use the bucket a lot). On this day the MNR came by to check my catch and license, but while I was sitting pants down on the bucket mid poop! I was in a portable hut and used my jacket to cover myself as he opened my zipper door. " catch any fish"? He asked, "nothing yet"I said. Then he asked for my license, and as I stretched to give it to him he tripped on some equipment I had outside the hut and fell into the hut. In the process of him falling he hit my bucket, which caused me to loose my balance and fall of my throne. After I fell I could hear the officer ask if I was ok and as I opened my eyes I could see that my bucket spilled onto his jacket. You think that's bad he was on all fours in the hut with my stormy poops on him and he was right next to my buddy heater. Yes his clothing did get a bit burnt, but that image of him rolling in my bucket run off to put out his clothes was too funny. Afterward he apologized for the mess and I agreed not to tell anyone. But I've told everyone I could just not his name and badge #

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Drew Da hahahahaha

[@mikeb7796]

My favourite memory of this season, aside from all the time spent with family out on the ice, is probably icing a close to 6lb whitey on a bait none of my family believed would work. My 3yo catching a nice 13" perch for her first fish through the ice on her first ice fishing trip might just best that though.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Mike B my son's first per h is one of my highlights for sure. Good job.

[@Jamie0Thomson]

favorite memory had to be this year landing my first whitey which quickly turned into my first 5. Went out on my own on Simcoe, searching maps for hours, finding a launch, a walk able location to find the fish. Moving and accommodating until they bit.

[@scottkrysa5674]

My old man and I were out fishing pike on georgian bay when he got a phone call from my brother to go and pick him up on the snowmobile. My dad put his rod down but didnt secure it very well and sure enough as soon as he let it go a pike smashed his bait and there went his rod down the hole...I said "that was not so smart..." my dad just stared down the hole in disbelief that his fishing rod was gone I continued fishing and my dad continued to sit and stare in disappointment at his fishing hole, when about a minute later my dad jumped up in a flash and shoved nearly his entire arm down the hole and pulled out a fishing rod and began fighting the pike...the pike came up the hole and his line snapped. I swooped in and quickly grabbed the pike. The pike had literally swam away with his rod that floats...and then swam back past the hole slow enough that the rod floated back up his hole...Dinner was on the pike that night.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Scott Krysa crazy

[@mitchelltosky7251]

My favourite memory this year was having a giant laker come and smash a vibrato right at the hole opening day never landed it though

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Mitchell Tosky those are the ones that keep you coming back. I've had many.

[@mitchelltosky7251]

Steve it sure is

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

For me, one that pops out was fishing with my dad in northern Quebec almost 20 years ago when we saw a moose in the water across the lake. We wanted to idle over and get a look. When we got closer, it was two buddies standing at either end of a little tin boat. For whatever reason, we thought it was a big moose rack. We laughed about that for years

[@johnwills9755]

BY FAR the best memory this past year or any year was watching my 7 year old son land his first ever beautiful Lake Simcoe Laker. That day he landed 2 Lakers and 3 whitefish. This was with Tom and Fatal Force. You can see the video on my sons new website here. takeakidfishing.ca/lake-simcoe-ice-fishing/

[@Borntheman]

Catching a 32" pike on an ultra light set up while fishing for perch 😃 You never know what you're going to get when your lines are in the water.

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Borntheman those incidental big fish always get the heart going

[@scottdeschamps7973]

Favourite by far is the record burbie or you falling through the ice lol

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Scott Deschamps that was cold af

[@scottdeschamps7973]

Steve Rowbotham I bet it was brother you’re a brave man

[@hillbillybobber]

This was my first season fishing for whitefish and Lakers so my favourite memory is the entire ice season on simcoe

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

luke kominek best lake in the country

[@jordanskinkle4923]

Best memory was meeting what i consider my best fishin buddy Andrew, one time we went out he ended up hookin up on a slob of a whitey it popped off right at the hole so he went to grab it and it literally jumped outta the hole, funniest thing of the ice season!

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Jordan Skinkle I think I saw the video!

[@stefantauro9611]

Steve newer subscriber but loving the vids, hopefully we meet on the waters soon, For me the best memory of Ice fishing was this whole season, got out fishing 4 times, but all 4 times something went wrong and each time was something different, From auger breaks to heaters running out to towing sleds flipping, but out of every outing one thing was exactly the same... NO FISH !!! but that didn't bother me cause each time out was better then the last with the buds, good laughs and always a good time even after getting skunked 4 weekends in a row..

[@garnett.dreger6399]

My favorite memory does come from this ice, and it was when I took my younger brother, step-brother, and step-dad out for their first time on the ice. Although the day turned out to be the worst day I had out on the ice, only marking 1 fish. It was still great to have them all out out and have some fun!! What is your favorite memory dude?

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Garnett .Dreger one that pops out was fishing with my dad in northern Quebec almost 20 years ago when we saw a moose in the water across the lake. We wanted to idle over and get a look. When we got closer, it was two buddies standing at either end of a little tin boat. For whatever reason, we thought it was a big moose rack. We laughed about that for years

[@lastcastpromise]

Favourite memory was when Tom showed up and blew your mind with the damn meegs...I'm still blown away by those lures too lol

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Adrian Lopez probably my best memory of the season

[@patrickdol1142]

My favourite ice-fishing memory from this season is getting my first splake after spending 6 hours out in -30!

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Patrick Dol ouch! I would have wussed out

[@mandab.r1573]

This year was my first icefishing season ever. And I was out on the ice almost every weekend with my roommates on Lake Simco. Not only did I get my PB perch I caught a new species for me a Cisco. But my absolute favourite memory was being on Georgian Bay and the second day up there was the most gorgeous sunrise and my friend whose stomping grounds it was was his first time Ice fishing that spot and caught a pike. My other friend and I each lost one but it was awesome seeing my friend land it since he was the one who brought us up there it felt like a win for all three of us it was awesome :D also a fan of meegs got my first one this year and so much fun to use :3

[@markbreuer6216]

Any of the videos with you jigging up some big Lakers and loved when you give me feedback on my questions

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

mark breuer not a problem

[@MrFisheh21]

favorite trip would be when I took my mom and sister out on cooks for their first time ice fishing for some perch. We barley caught any but it was funny as hell and we had a great day out on the water

[@nathanjohnson8990]

My favorite has to be the lake simcoe white fish! I recently caught my first whitefish on a blue Swedish pimple with a crappie minnow

[@BlairFishProject]

My favourite ice fishing memory was actually this past weekend up fishing lakers and burbot last ice in Muskoka. Put up close to 20 lakers and over 20 burbot in a few days all caught on camera. Dropping a four video series in my channel starting this week! Love your stuff Steve!

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Blair Fish Project can't go wrong with 40+ fish!!

[@rafaelsakarya]

That time you caught a lake trout on Simcoe!😉

[@FishingFrames]

👍 love your vids. My fav memory - this year - blitzed on an ice trip and a laker wreaked havoc tangling all our lines. Happens when on a fish vacation with the boys. We got it on film and I tossed it up on KZbin. I Can relive that funny moment whenever I want now!

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Fishing Frames that's half the reason I started my channel. To relive my memories

[@erics6130]

finally catching my first white fish! Got out to kemp with the old man, he was as surprised as I was when it came up the hole.

[@drewlandeen7840]

Awesome season bud

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Drew Landeen thanks

[@outdoordaveadventures]

Great recap Steve. It was great meeting you at the expo this season and im always trying to adapt techniques ive learned from yoir vids. I hope to one day have a season even 1/4 as good as yours lol. Best memory this season was Dec 23 first ice on cooks bay. Jumbo Perch smash fest, couldn't have asked for a better start. Unfortunately I didn't get the laker I chased all season... Also I can't forget about spending a full 24h on the lake with Bear Point. I didn't catch any but loved every minute of it. Looking forward to some open water vids! Sorry for the short story lol cheers

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Outdoor Dave that's my birthday. No wonder you smashed em

[@sparky-pp4dq]

I'd have to say my best time out fishing this winter was taking my girlfriend who caught her first laker and whitefish from Simcoe! She was so excited!!! Laker was around 7 or 8 pounds and an average sized whitefish!! She can't wait to get back out next season to catch more!!

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

sparky7032 did she outfish ya?

[@sparky-pp4dq]

Well I managed my 2 whitefish , a nice laker and a ling..... But her laker was a bit bigger than mine!! Check my gallery near the bottom (March 13th) for pictures! icefisher1.wixsite.com/sparkys-outdoors/gallery

[@fishingontariofishon9304]

I would have to say when I took my good buddy Kyle Snell out for Lakers. I lost a big one because of lines tangling . We then moved and Kyle landed his biggest Laker about 10 to 12 lbs . The excitement was awesome something I'll never forget .

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Fishing Ontario Fish on always awesome to put buddies on fish

[@reelcanadianlunkerhunter7574]

Steve, I thought I had my fav picked out until the last 5 sec of this vid.... seeing your young lad bring in the perch changed it.... lol Love watching all of your content, you had me envious while watching from over seas as I had to hit hard water vicariously through you tube... good to be home! Tight lines....

[@andrewbowman4032]

Tbis was the first season in approximately 3 years that I went ice fishing again. Mostly from consrantly getting skunked. I give credit to Tom from Fatal Force Outfitters for teaching me how to properly use the Meegs. This season was the first time I iced more than 1 or 2 a day. Credits to you Steve as well I watxh your videos as well and have learned lots. So excited for next hard water season I think of it all the time....

[@pokerflush29]

Favorite moment of the season for me was first ice. Hooked a huge Laker, snapped the reel right off my rod and broke the tip off. Didn’t manage to land it but I could see it through the ice. My favorite moment of your vids is probably watching you eat shit when you were fishing with Bulaw.

[@lylim3359]

Meegs Me!!! Favorite memory this season was the weekend before season closer. Had an insane day with a buddy and couldn't keep the whitefish off our lines. We lost count of how many we landed and probably missed just as many lol. All fish came on the Meegs!

[@robbysreloadingroom]

aaaahhhhh, steve 5 seasons deep and still no white fish for me lol . Caught a laker though, that was amazing. I did miss a few bites while fishing for whities so thats a start. I cant stop laughing though, when it comes to your vids. I remembered all the thumbs up you got, and that one dick head that would always thumbs down you .. Some depressed ice fisherman i suppose. Im cleaning out the gear and putting things away for the season, and i am already looking forward to jan 1st 2019. Keep up the great work brother, love your vids. PS, don't worry about that one hater lol

[@jamiemota8253]

Fighting a laker on a ultra light and losing it at the hole so sad :(

[@ReelCanadianFishing]

It's difficult to pick one memory. I would have to say anytime you going out ice fishing and you're spending time on the hard water with your buddies or by myself that's a good memory. But this year the best memory would have been mid February when I went double digits for the Whitefish my first time ever. Oh yeah by the way you can never have enough meegs jigs so I hope I win this giveaway

[@SteveRowbothamfishing]

Reel Canadian Fishing Saturdays are for the boys
