Nothing better than fishing with your dad. My dad's my fishing partner and I wouldn't change it for the world

[@adamstack]

I was watching an ice fishing video the other day and I was just bored to tears. Sitting in a dimly lit box pulling fish out of a tiny hole is probably entertaining in person but it sure makes for some lackluster video footage. The extra content on THIS ice fishing video kept me engaged. Really enjoyed all the MeatEater episodes I've seen with this host. Clearly an expert and passionate about his craft.

[@melvinarturo1020]

Sometimes it’d be like that😅

[@TacticoolCraig]

There is one thing I know as a Canadian kid, parents taking you to “skip” school for fishing or hunting. Best classroom for kids if any age. Thanks Jay and Dad

[@eriklarson4321]

I watch way too many KZbin hunting and fishing videos. Have to say your laid back, educational style is killer. I hate to show props to Canada but have to admit you definitely know how to do it right.

[@bradleyaronson3616]

Love this series, I hope meat eater renews this again!

[@o-rang9137]

Me too! This is great content and I've learned so much

[@WildAtHeart_1]

Jay is so knowledgeable with this type of fishing. I am entertained and educated. Thanks

[@toddslichter7831]

Great father-son memories...thanks for sharing them with us.

[@dalbert4991]

Love watching you fish with your Dad, Jay...so cool. 😎

I cherish the days I get to go fishing with my Father. What a fantastic wholesome video!

[@zachchristensen1394]

I do 99% of my ice fishing with my dad he’s my best friend and best fishing partner I could ask for!! Love your videos Jay you are the best KZbinr

[@robclark1215]

There's nothing better than fishing with the old man. 👍👍

[@zachfarkash6430]

Absolutely awesome to see you out there with your dad. Like a lot of people have said enjoy every minute with him. Unfortunately I lost my dad 3 years ago to cancer and I wish I would have been able to spend more time with him fishing because he's the one that taught me everything about fishing. Great video is always love watching

[@morrisdomke8920]

Great to see Jay our with his Longtime FISHING PARTNER... NICE PLATE YOU Built for sure

[@philllax1719]

Man, this is my first ice season away from my old man, this makes me miss him even more. This'll be the first season in a little over a decade we didn't get out together

[@kenf4903]

Great to see you with your dad! I sure miss mine. That time is special. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@brianburdine4620]

Your the man Jay!! Sure a pleasure to meet Papa Siemens. Nice work fellas.

[@tomdombrovski432]

Any fishing day with your dad is a great day no matter what you catch

[@erniescabin4256]

i love your videos i'm a 70 years old and still live in the bush lol and i found the more you get to know an animal the less you want to kill it i'm to the point now were i can't even pick up a gun

[@veroman007]

great stuff Jay! all of us guys who r your dads age still think we are your age so keep that in mind when you are middle aged! I prefer pike over walleyes any day too! more flavor for one.

[@FiftyQuest15]

So awesome to spend that many years making memories fishing with your dad. Mine started me on my passion for fishing and the outdoors, while he kept it pretty casual I eventually got obsessed and went on to guiding. It's a huge part of my life and identity. lead me to many amazing places and people. I always enjoyed it coming full circle and taking my dad out to teach him how to chase musky around. Unfortunately I lost my dad to Cancer at 60 years old but those memories keep him close to heart.

[@David35445]

Your Dad is super awesome! Treasure every day you have with him.

[@F0xj]

Watching your dad in the background was the best part, can’t wait to be him with my son.

[@TacticoolCraig]

Also how you talked about oil temp , spot on. Lots of KZbinrs let fish bubble in oil and wonder why it’s not good

[@stevedesantolo6794]

One of your single best videos, Jay. Memories all of us have had, or wished we had. Cheers!

[@satanmitdengeilenbarthaaren]

Just came home from a nice overnight fishing trip at my local lake here in Germany, binging your Canadian Angler videos with a cold one after a fried perch 😁 Just happiness!

[@alexehhhh]

Awesome. My open invite still stands out here in Sask 😉

[@bustinbass78]

Great video. Cherish your dad.

[@TKPencilZ]

Love the father-son bond you guys have, thanks for sharing it with us Jay!

[@mcguireoutdoors5187]

Jay I can only imagine how proud your dad is. Looked like you both enjoyed the time

[@jimplantinga6288]

Very cool of you to take your Dad. I hope to be as lucky one day... God bless! 😎👍

[@jeremiahhedeen3879]

That Buffalo style fried fish looks amazing im going to try that today!! Great videos thank you for sharing

[@AmpedUpAngling]

Heck ya!!

[@paintballplayer700]

That filet knife is in desperate need of stoning though!

[@earlshaner4441]

Hi from Syracuse NY USA everyone

[@vikingslayer34]

Try the 5 fillet method on them gators. No bones and quick as hell. Great job brother and good to see you and your dad out on the ice.

[@adamsmith3996]

Used to climb 20 foot ridges on erie to get to the perch grounds. But when you get em to 2 lbs its worth it. Great vid jay. Enjoy every minute with your dad !

[@derekpiehl85]

Great to see you and your dad out together. Before you know it your dad will get to be out on the ice with his grandchild.

[@mikeadam6776]

Always a good time when you get to fish with your son.

[@woodsfamily1986]

i have so much respect for “meat eater” and ill say it u have a home run with Jay! i’ve been watching him for years!

[@jdizzle2987]

I love these. Thanks and keep going!

[@dallonperry3639]

That was some great uncut angling!

[@heinrichbier4759]

So good Jay!

[@tylerharris2470]

As many times as I heard "foot off the bottom" I know what the new name for my alternative punk rock band will be. Thanks MeatEater!!

[@mars7786]

Man jay is the best great information and great filmmaker

[@104silvae]

Nice burbot! I love these videos. Thank you Jay

[@derekboyce8707]

Such a good episode. One of my favourite.

[@ruthsiemens3589]

Proud of you guys!!! 💕💕 That was fun!!

[@drnkinirish]

Love pike! Almost prefer them to walleye and perch. That pan, however, has seen some better days, cast iron maybe?

[@TheBankersSafe]

Caught my first pike through the ice from Jay's tactics two years back. Dude is a legend and so knowledgeable.

[@tzrippinlips2527]

Jay thought I’d let ya know I tried out your way of filleting walleye and I’ll never go back to any other way!! It was so painless and saved so much of the fillet!!! I’d recommend the pants leg technique to anybody!!! Thanks!!👍🏻👍🏻

[@jakewes6642]

I didn't stop smiling the entire time. Everything about this is just so wholesome. Well done.

[@Otownbassin]

Jay I love this series, love of good pointers and very entertaining

[@humdrum5509]

Really great series, Awesome addition to MeatEater.

[@BryonGus]

Nice work Jay!

[@AndrewMcGhie]

Great feature on MeatEater, and much deserved for Jay Siemens! Keep em coming 🇨🇦

[@AmpedUpAngling]

What an epic video!!! Awesome job Jay, of course expect nothing less.

[@TheEzrider403]

Great Father and Son Day !

[@sonic605hp]

Great episode.

[@leviwilliams636]

Heading to Colorado tomorrow for some ice can’t wait!!!

[@Bombguy83]

After growing up in MB (family from St. Joseph) and fishing the Pas, Kenora and all over with my Dad chasing master angler fish it was great to see you taking your dad out to chase them.

[@outdooroutfitters3658]

Looks like so much fun.

[@JimmyJam238]

About 2:15, had no idea that ice could "stretch" / "tear" / etc like that. Steven (from California...surprise!) . Thanks for the videos!

[@buckduane1991]

Pike is the most amazing fresh water fish out there, and is my all time favorite. Used to catch them in Lake Cummins just south of Ely, NV. They are invasive and have a zero release law in Nevada, and despite having poisoned off the entire lake several times, even leaving it a year and poisoning it again, they would restock the lake with rainbows and right away fishermen start pulling out 24-40” northerns! It’s just off the highway and the cut that runs up to Cave Lake, and my gosh are they tasty!!! And tough as nail! Had one in the cooler for over four hours, opened it up and it was watching my hand and intentionally tried to bite me, so they stay alive for a LONG time after being hauled out, eight hours I can personally testify to. Yeah, that Y Bone is a pain to deal with, but so worth it once cooked!!! Pretty much the same technique I was shown when I was taught to fillet them, though I’ve seen others… that were a lot more wasteful. Good fish, good food!

[@elLocodelsubte]

you went with your dad, thats so cool dude. great video.

[@darcybain2657]

We had a feed of pike just last weekend, next time definitely going to try the honey garlic, great video, only 27 more business days and we will be there LOL

[@JoshSDshot]

Use old salt fish lure you can thank me later

[@trevorlarson4346]

Pike is one of the best freshwater fish I’ve eaten

[@sweetroscoeful]

Had a guided fishing trip this year and bagged a Pike and a walleye....cleaned cooked up both that night. I was surprised how much I enjoyed the Pike, and dare I say, it actually might have been a slight bit better than the walleye! I agree, a firmer flesh, very mild flavor. Great cooking fish.

[@Tastewithnewdrinks]

Awesome fishing.👍👍👍👍

[@annetttt]

Best meat eater vids right now, dad thanks for Patrick laine

[@Daze702]

what i wouldn't give to go fishing with my dad ... enjoy that

[@danielfrechette2938]

Jay come to alberta lake athebasca and cold lake are home to some massive walleyes if you can find em !!!

[@skeetermalcolm1655]

Loving the fishing videos brother,your dad left with a smile on his face

[@AmpedUpAngling]

What it’s all about!

[@WoodsNorth]

Nothin beats a big gator! My second to last video is a store brand version of this 😂

[@CCNorse]

I really like the Okuma CBR-1000s for my iFish sets. The pike don’t seem to notice the difference between free spool and the bait feed setting on these reels, but when the wind’s blowing hard, it helps keep the line on the reel.

[@SangamonOutdoors]

I love eating pike almost as much as I do catching pike. As fun to catch and as tasty as any fish that swims. Only things I do different are 1) the five cut method and 2) I soak the fish in the Franks before I add the breading But your breading looks amazing

[@troyskiera8944]

When is Steve going to be on here with u jay?!

[@outdoorsmanal1759]

The tip up in the shack would be so handy to multitask and play a board game on the side if the fishing is slow too 😂

[@tannerharcus8833]

wow this is amazing bois well done

[@090faller]

Great video man.

[@colinschell8978]

Jay when cooking the pike do you fully cook it in the oil or not quite

[@bobalvarez2577]

enjoyed the catch and cook. thx

[@crowman5936]

Great show.

[@NorthRiverGuide]

When I saw the title I thought I'd be seeing big baits. But those little ciscos are a far stretch from the 12-15" mackerel we use for pike. How do you keep the small pike off your lines?

[@garoldwilson6547]

"Get yard saled" haha I felt that

[@whiskeywoods9962]

Just south of you on the south shore!!! Good video!

[@RaptorzFishing]

cool dad n son thang!

[@cbrochu22]

Pike is actually probably my favorite freshwater fish to eat

[@shanebarbeau4557]

Who makes those predator rigs? Haven't seen them before.

[@toreywirthman1195]

He’s got a video on his page that shows him making them himself with wire and some crimpers. It’s called how to tip up fish for pike I believe.

[@sergeykopylov652]

In Russia (my place at least) nobody let fish swim back. Any size fish goes into backet! 23:56 why did you let this burbot go?? It is good to eat!

[@jaredgibbs1011]

I'm on the most southern range of Northern Pike in Central Illinois 40 degrees latitude. Took me 7 years to get a 40 incher out of the Illinois river. It ment more than alot of fish I've caught. Looking for that 41 now lol.

[@johngaber8451]

“Am I gonna die?, Maybe” lol

[@jdoutdoorsjacksondarien5681]

In my opinion pike from 19-22 inches taste the best 😁

[@montanamayhem5983]

"O my goodness jay o my goodness!!"I just remembered Aaron saying that over and over again. Lol I really want to know if there is a story behind that, was Aaron making fun of you in passed videos?

[@dutchekbrian2506]

Awesome to see you spending time with your old man. And injoying the outdoors. You mentioned you use the Jawjackers. Just wondering what kind of rods you use? I keep breaking mine. Thx.

[@kueckeraj]

I love selective harvest.

[@savior5315]

Jay: These baits eliminate small fish Jay:That was a hit and run from a smaller fish Sure man

[@melvinarturo1020]

15:01 dang bro

[@mattfleming86]

I've never had "buffalo" fish. I've dry spiced it but never wet. Gonna put that on the to-do list.

[@bradstubbs5708]

keep it up !

[@dangagnon7312]

Season 3!

[@KB4EVER]

We NEED more videos!

[@AndMoreFan]

I really hope Aaron wiebe makes an appearance on one of these episodes!
