ICE FISHING 2023. Joe and Zach On the ice. Catching Minnesota Northern Pike and Perch.

[@originalmachowi4671]

Wisconsinite here...just wanted to say that I love the fact that you too use to get bait from a 24hr minnow monger. We used to get bait like that from an old guy in Mellen...ran the business right out of his garage... it was awesome...those were the good old days.

[@sammythompson3694]

I enjoy snow pictures and miss sledding and ice fishing.

[@jikrukowski8649]

Nothing better than spending time with Zach making memories.

[@annek1226]

Sorry guys but this one had it coming.

[@JCbull]

Always nice to see a father and son spend time together

[@stacybailey1770]

That looked like such a great day day, all day with your child good conversation is what it's all about.

[@jasonalexander5789]

Father and son back at it. How awesome!

[@wayneschnare4019]

I LOVE That you guys Hug !!! Awesome !!!

[@tpalshadow]

Very fun to watch!

[@72PRODIGALSON]

I love seeing the 2 of you together. All my BEST memories are with the dads I had, which were my stepdad and the uncles that helped raise me.

[@kan-zee]

Wow...I remember younge man Zach , when he was showing us his Bug out bag with his pops (over 10 yrs ago) .. Now he is a grown man , and his pops, is the old guy..lol Good times. I hope you two , do another collaberation, on what's in your Bug out bag & EDC for 2023...(from 10 yrs later.)

Seeing you two out having fun together is wonderful

[@tessaelvan5149]

Father Son time together and some good fishing, thank you

[@trutsieo5430]

This video went so fast. I guess I really enjoyed seeing your snow & fishing with Zach. Nice to see people talking with respect to one another & having a good laugh together. Thanks you guys.

[@johnhoward650]

I like the ice fishing videos but I love the winter trip to the tent better.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Winter trip is usually at the end of February but tomorrow I will be snowshoeing into the Tent and do an overnight stay to check everything out. They have had a lot of snow up there. I want to make sure the Tent is still standing. Not the true winter trip but like I said during deer hunting, I will probably get up there a few times this winter.

[@johnhoward650]

@@JoeandZachSurvival Cool. Stay warm and safe.

[@jefflee5047]

Have a good, safe, overnight trip to the tent/lake tomorrow. …..and that the tent is surviving all the snow too.

[@stewartew]

Fish, no fish who cares ?, you had quality time with Zach and that is priceless. It was good to see that you can still catch a fish once in a while....LOL

[@unclemikessouthernoutdoors3783]

Looks like it was a good day! Really enjoy the videos.

[@barrydeacon3551]

Great day with Zack! Can’t beat father/son days together👍 My parents have both passed: My Dad and I use to do lots of things together Too. My dog, Jessie black lab and Dad: great times I’ll never forget…. Enjoy your time Together: your not long on earth so make the most of it! Miss you Dad🙏🏻 B Deacon Manitoba Canada 🇨🇦

[@maximuskiowa7393]

Hey Joe! There's still a big old northern Pike swimming around with your fishing Pole 🤣 Remember that

[@cherokeelaketennessee7895]

Joe, I can't believe you're wearing boots LOL! Most of the time you have sneakers on. I live in the south but I've always wanted to go ice fishing, maybe one day.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

I did not know if we would have slush so I switched to my boots.

[@rhaepers1]

Funny Zach mentions the snowblower for the atv, cuz I was gonna mention that when everyone suggested a plow truck. You can easily pick up a snowblower attachment for a riding lawn mower and fabricate a mount for the atv and throw a Predator motor on it.All for easily under $1k. Plus be a good winter project/video series for Zach making it. Plenty of KZbin videos showing people making them.

[@paulinerhodes5170]

Any day fishing with a loved one is a good day.

[@TheHomeDad]

Love the relationship you guys have, I hope to have that with my boys once they get older.

[@rogerpultz5597]

Great video 👍

[@patrickburgmeier7902]

Great to see you 2 not so busy that you can't find time to spend fishing together 😀

[@randycornell9796]

Alright,a little father and son time!! You can't beat that. Nice Northern Joe!! You too Zach!! Looks like you both had a great time. Stay safe my friends.👍🤓👍🤓Randy.

[@whitetailhollowacres6917]

You mentioned about going up to lake of the woods. We fish there quite a bit. Last year my wife and I rented a house from Dale's resort on Valentine's day. It was my gift to her for the special day. 😉 We ended up filling out that day which made it even better. Enjoy your trip.

[@kimberlyshalaby1134]

Was good to see you & Zachary together. Nice catch!

[@elkhntr4evr421]

That’s great you and Zach get to spend this time together fishing! Can’t wait to see Rose there with you both! Three generations fishing, hunting and winter time at the tent!

Yet another awesome video of family togetherness, Joe & Zach! Beautiful scenery, good company, enjoying the day fishin' and talkin'. Loved it! :)

[@mmcc310]

I love watching this channel and mountain maple ranch channel always interesting

[@yellowdeer7163]

Nice fish guys. I actually went fishing down here in Arlington , Tx. when the temps were about 28 degrees. I was fishing the rocks and I was the only one on the lake that day. I turned around and there was a camera man taking pictures of me fishing. Well, as it turns out I was on the Sports page of the Ft.Worth Star Telegram. The headline read " He caught a Cold this Big!" I didn't catch a cold but I did catch some nice bass.

[@mariannesouza8326]

[@s.pursell8901]

BercoMac makes a snowblower that will attach to an atv. I love mine. It wasn't cheap, but it's built to last. I haven't found a snowfall it couldn't handle yet. I believe they are manufactured in Canada. It took two months after I ordered it to get it.

[@JohnDoe-qm8nt]

Great comradery.

[@keithcotnoir6331]

Ketchup goes with everything,!!! loll I remember many moons ago, when my son didn't wat to eat his veggies, I would out a dab of Ketchup on them, and yep, all the veggies where eaten ,,

[@Elkfever]

Nice to see Zach got all groomed up for the video 😀

[@jimf1964]

When my dad and I started ice fishing, many many years ago, we met an old timer who told us for things like perch, stay in 4 to 6 ft of water. Seems like he was right. Grubs on a tiny gig, or use the eye ball of the ones you’ve already caught. We’ve caught northerns in shallow water too, which makes sense, since they’re in cruising for perch. I’d like to see you guys out on Superior. We fished lake Champlain. A big lake, but not compared to Superior.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Might get to Lake Superior later this week. I am doing a tent check and overnight stay tomorrow and then we will see.

[@vickiconley3638]

Good times you two.

[@snotina]

finally I get to see the fish who gave the band its name!!! 🇨🇦

[@mrboneman4354]

looks like fun guys

[@adamheazlett1179]

You and Mellisa must enjoy the cost free wood furnace. Moving backwards 150 years. Maybe horse and cart this year to still move backwards.

[@JustinHallowesOutdoors]

finally catching up. looking forward to Lake Superior

[@butlerdawgs78]

I'd have to say if your snow is mostly dry storms, snowblower is probably the best option on average. It'll do with most wet snow as well, just not as easily.

[@ann-raelagrelle8312]

Nice fish

[@denwater7874]

I loved the line from Joe to Zach..."you blew that one... and you call yourself a fishermen ". Classic! Reminds me of giving my own Boys crap! It's all good.

[@anthonymedeck7081]

I moved from Two Harbors to southern AZ 17 years ago. Sure do miss Ice drinking-- I mean ice fishing.

[@kengordinier6318]

If something ever happens to that yellow/black pull over,we won't know if Joe is in the video lol

[@murraychives9095]

Yes, that pull-over definitely gets worn. Should see if that company could sponsor Joe. I mean it looks just as good as it did the first time I say it. Little wear and tear sure but , has held up better than anything bought nowadays

[@johnemery9634]

Bruce Lee had one just like it. Lol dare de ils work well. Put a 4 inch shimmer on it and let it swim. Pikes favorite. A red and white or a rainbow color is my go to on like. And I use the wood stick pole with black line with a steel leather. Go 30 to 50 lb test line. You can even horse them in then. Lol about 9 bucks at L and M. It's all a guy needs

[@Kulpythekulpster]

Ok so I have the same Eskimo. Just learned how to break it down the right way lol

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

I have one bigger than Zach's but I still have not mastered that so if Zach is coming I always make sure he brings his because he has it all figured out. Haha.

[@Kulpythekulpster]

@@JoeandZachSurvival I've broken that thing down so many times and still can't master it haha. Then I saw you and Zach do it and I was like "ohhhh, that's how it's done"

Next time you head up this way, go five miles past Fisherman's Corner on 53 and stop at Twig Store! We have bait and are open at 6 am!

[@korndogsmom]

I find ice fishing fascinating because we don't have it here. How do you cook the pike? Fillet and batter it?

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Yes, fillet it and then put a good fish batter on it and fry it in oil. Some people pickle them. They are even good fried with no batter.

[@istepheniadeluca8531]

Fish always smell your food 😂🤣😂

What’s that thing in the background next to Zacks hole? Looks like a spinning fan, or some lights flashing around in a circle.

time to upgrade to a rod and reel, love the fight of northerns

I have rod and reel, I just never use them.

[@markk4300]

Back in the nineties I had a digital camera for documenting my ice fishing catches. To keep it warm I would tuck in my jacket. I made the mistake and bent over my hole and there it went. As it floated to the bottom the flash unit was going off. After fishing out hours later. It revealed several pictures of me watching it sink to the bottom.😂

At least you recovered it.

@Heather Clayton-Callaghan if they are set up at one place, do they move they little fish house from place to place? I have never ice fished or know anyone who does. It was a legit I want to know more about this type of fishing. Thank you.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

You are allowed 2 holes (fishing poles in the water) each. We had one each in the shelter and then put tip-ups on two other holes that were outside of the shelter. The holes have to be within 200 feet of whoever is fishing the holes. Better chance at catching fish when you spread your coverage area.
