Winter Steelhead - bead bouncing

Today we're on the icy shoreline bead bouncing for winter steelhead. I'm using a bead which I pegged about an inch from the hook. Of course, I'm running the T-Turn 3-Way Swivel to keep my line tangle-free as I bounce along the bottom. The water is ice cold, with ice chunks floating along, but thankfully the sun came out, keeping my hands warm.

[@derylminnich2489]

You should do a contest, where 3rd place gets some new thundermist lures...2nd place maybe gets a collection of thundermist lures & first place gets to go fishing with you and the boatless angler...cause that would be awesome

[@TreSaintz]

You’re the Bob Ross of fishing :)

Hahahaha I thought you were pulling up ol Greg 🤣🤣🤣 thanks for sharing Ivo.

God bless Ivo! Thanks for the video!

[@petemoss9693]

Hello Ivo . . . No doubt your hands were cold being outside with no gloves also of handling that Steel Head in that freezing water ( brrrrrrr ) but it pay off for you having to catch a nice size fish - some times there people that do discard fishing line in the water, nice of you to gather it up to take it with you to throw it away .

[@wrath231]

You are so blessed with fishing condition s like that Ivo!

[@bilek98]

That's one nice steelie

[@PinkBlondeBarbiexo]

Will they bite my sting eye spinners in winter ? I have all the sizes and colours 😊

[@thundermistlures]

yes they will :) December is best...in Jan or Feb, slow your retrieve then March picks up again - good luck :)

[@PinkBlondeBarbiexo]

@@thundermistlures I didn’t think in winter steelies would hit spinners if it’s to cold so what would be better bottom bounce or spinners ?

[@thundermistlures]

@@PinkBlondeBarbiexo bottom bounce would definitely be a slower presentation and most likely trigger more hits in the winter :)

Hey Evo! I live on line 2. I just cut down that tree that fell over.! So excited you posted this video. Glad you landed that Beautiful fish. Hope one day I can fish with you. Thanks again. Love your products.

[@randylahey3909]

there are fish that come from saltwater in the niagara river? i thought we only had rainbow trout in ontario

[@thundermistlures]

......our Niagara river trout migrate from Lake Erie or Lake Ontario and although its not salt water , they are still considered steelhead :)

[@mattcowboy99]

Love that you picked up that line! Too many guys would just leave it

[@paulmartin2586]

I like how you almost said FUN-dermist fishing ...lol

[@KZtheFisherOutdoors]

Another great video buddy 👍love the colors on that steelhead 😉🤙🎣

[@j.craigh.3480]

😂 lol. You know we have the fishing bug when we go out while having “half a chance of staying warm.”

[@alexzochil9771]

Love waking up in the morning to Ivo’s new videos 👍

[@RealisticFishing]

I love catching other line 😅

[@CraigArndt]

Gorgeous hen, looked like a wild fish too. Beautiful work. I love the T turn swivels. I use those walleye season on Erie, they're perfect for the Emerald Channel and in lots of places. Nice work Ivo.

[@jacquesbeaudoin9706]

A few weeks ago the ice flows were so bad you could not even cast in between without getting line caught on ice. The last 10 days has been great. Rainbow on almost every outing either bottom bouncing with plastic worms or still bottom with roe bags. But the crowds at that location particularly on weekend are getting out of hand lately.

[@georgeallen-griffin3628]

Start shooting them down

[@keiranrooker7981]

Hey ivo I was wondering if you knew my great grandparents edward Rooker or Ted Rooker they used to own east side bait and tackle at port Dalhousie

[@thundermistlures]

...did not know them but I knew of them :)

[@adkbeau]

Can’t believe there no ice !!! Even with some thaw people still on ice in NY

[@DmRushed]

Hey Ivo, I’m a southern Ontario resident and I was wondering if you could give me a general area to fish some rainbows on the Niagara. I’d be casting some stingeyes of course ! Not looking for an exact spot just an area I could start. Thanks !

[@aaangling1980]

Queenston docks the Niagara whirlpool are very good spots to start lots of fish in the area!

[@DmRushed]

@@aaangling1980 Thanks man , ill give it a shot

Eh thunder mist guy you show do a fishing trip to fish kokanee salmon

[@j.craigh.3480]

Proper thing. Taking that line in and throwing it in the garbage. Too many people leaving old line, lure packaging and just plain garbage, on the shores for animals to get tangled in and even ruining it for others to be able to fish certain areas.

[@keiranrooker7981]

That’s my buddies line he made a cast and lost his whole spool of line broke off when he had a bit of line left

[@Smurf5738]

Damn, forgot the bait. Good thing fish are dull as a sack of hammers😁

[@bigpagla]

This video helped my cabin fever. Ivo, a silly question: how tight is too tight when tightening a new reel into a reel seat?

[@thundermistlures]

...you just wan tit to be "snug" enough so that it doesn't move or come loose while casting :)

[@j.sinker8595]

How long did you fish for that 1 fish
