Lake of the Woods Ice Road Fishing

I hit the ice road with special guest Josh Mcfaddin who cooks up a crazy meal for me! The ice road equalizes the fishing game so that anyone can get almost anywhere on Lake of the Woods. It's great for those that don't have a ton of gear to reach some prime fishing spots. Come along as we explore the great ice roads!

Driving on the ice roads is one of the best ways to fish! One thing to mention is make sure you are making a track of your route. It makes life a lot easier getting off in the dark.

[@hmoobxyooj3860]

i for got my auger. Good thing that i had a buddy that was already out there save my day.

[@MidWestRiverRat]

Good video. We had a heavy rain recently. It was good though. It took all the snow and heavy slush off the lake and refroze into good ice.

[@nickfeilmeier8586]

Flasher cam is gold

[@chrisbraun11]

Queue; life is a highway. Great video Jay! Hoping to explore the ice roads soon to get on some Lakers.

[@holdintime2904]

Do you have any plans to go fishing with Aaron soon? I really miss you two

[@jtothefx]

Weebz for Prime Minister

[@WaterandIceOutdoors]

Ice roads are definitely the way to go right now with all the snow we are getting. Mille Lacs is the same way! Nice video!

[@jordanchesky5505]

It's actually the law to do a minimum of 5 donuts everytime you drive on the ice road

[@07blackfx4]

"Don't drive fast" . Looks like you were doing a good 50 mph lol. But that road was beautiful. There isn't a lake in MN that has a road that smooth. Usually its about 15 mph max for me but thats mostly because the the bumpy road.

[@jefffrancis7198]

I always watch your videos before everyone else's (fishnmore, in-depth, Jon b, ECT.) Because the production or the way you set your videos is the best and most entertaining! Keep it up!

[@rafaelsakarya]

Ice roads are the bomb!🤪💯🎣

[@with_michaelua]

*Great fishing! I watched with pleasure! Thank!*

[@scottkrysa5674]

Gotta laugh at Matt actually taking a pee behind the truck when they finally stop

[@toddpossum]

Flasher cam yaaaaaaaas!

[@adamsmith8533]

Nick's fishing knowledge is a polor vortex .

[@dirtracer235]

Nice video, we just took the ice road from the states to Kenora a couple weeks ago. Great experience. LOTW brewery was an awesome stop for lunch. You should come down to the south end of the lake and do a sturgeon video this spring, I'll show you the ropes and give you a couple good spots if you need.

[@putemintheboat6784]

Edits are on firrrrre lately bud!

[@wynnedel8097]

Kool video, nice to know that is a possibility, tight lines, thanks for sharing

[@JaySiemens]

[@henflins]

The cooking stove would keep the shack warm, no?

[@markandcandice5156]

Jason Wiebe from Steinbach Lund boat. His father was making the rod holders

[@USN_Ret-]

Beef tongue is excellent

[@Dangerdilan]

Where is the launch point for the ice roads? does it start in Clearwater bay as well? Hoping to head out there this weekend to check it out!

[@mountainstomarshes8966]

[@karlhollett7023]

As soon as I see Josh in a video....my stomach starts to rumble.

[@rydertardy6484]

We went to lake of the woods on the Minnesota side because we Live in Minnesota and we got our limited in 2 days with four people

[@joeydesousafishing1203]

Great vid jay!

[@mboutdoors4366]

Sick video👌🔥, I’m out there today fishing for Lakers

[@SamWigginton]

I also had a hard time on lake of the woods last weekend

[@nicholasamorose4365]

Nice to see Sam let you borrow her brand new walleye rod. lol

[@HuyFishin]

Amazing video my man!

[@elischultes6587]

Normally you have to boil for a long time or pressure cook tongue in order for it to be tender enough to eat

[@patrickbennett9511]

love it!!!

[@bplfishing381]

More like an ice InnerState here!

[@HoffmanOutdoors]

Damn dude what happened to your bedside? CRUNCH! And yeah what that other guy said...when ya fishin with Aaron again?! We need an Uncut reunion!

[@JustinJenkenAssortedMeats]

THATS THE 2ND BEST BEARD I'VE SEEN ON YOUR VLOG... Second to mine ;) heeheheheheehehehheh

[@blindsk816]

FINALLY 👊🏼👍🏼👊🏼👍🏼

[@stuffnsuch631]

Are the ice highways still open and accessible with all the recent snow?

[@teamslaiyans3808]

Another tip, always fill up your gas tank ⛽️ before driving out to far spots 😅😅😅, you’ll never know 😅…

[@ajmeier01]

The ice is cracking as that other truck flies by! He was going way to fast. I've been trucking on the ice roads up north, I've seen what happens when you go to fast. Don't cross the wave your making in front of you.

[@joeschatz6617]

Oh wow good point. Never thought of that. Good advice

[@jamesscully1574]

was that first fish caught on the hulk jig ?

[@MrMckinzey]

Couldn't you have used the 1lb propane tanks for the stove in the heater?

[@simongohier-st-jean2670]

Definitly First ! :O How do you keep your gopro from freezing ?

[@peirules154]

Read up on the new laws regarding drones jay. They take effect June 1st I believe.

[@jakebradley7701]

Where’s blain??

[@dnmtorp]

looked for maps of ice roads on LOTW last year online and didn't find any. Are they available?

[@wooooofishing]

Turn on the subtitles at the 9:28 mark lol woooooow

[@gamerforlife863]

What's your favorite lures for ice fishing??

[@joeydesousafishing1203]

I like rattle baits like the jackall tn60 for walleye and lake trout

[@jtw4744]

Who monitors the condition of the ice road?

[@mulletmanjr4677]

I jad the same question

[@lovesskiingpow]

James Thomas it’s drive at your own risk but signs are posted letting you know when it’s no longer safe to drive.

[@OaK-_R]

Usually its the people who own the lake access you use.

[@rcochennet884]

wheres that beef tongue video?

[@TheRick2130]

#manitoba... Wink! wink!, in other words get your shit together oppss LOL!

[@michaelsigafoos2620]
