Women and Ice Fishing
On Ice Tour pro staff member Ineke Leer is featured on the cover of In-Fisherman’s Ice Fishing Guide and has become the first women ever on the cover of this major publication.   Traditionally ice fishing is thought of as a male sport, the decision to put a female on the cover of the In-Fisherman Ice Guide is proof that ice fishing is growing and enjoyed by everyone, not just “the guys”.

Hot and Cold Reservoir Walleyes
By Rick Olson - The “hot” is the level of intensity at first ice and the “cold” is well, first ice.  First ice action on big reservoirs can be white hot early on, and the big impoundments can offer some fantastic ice fishing opportunities.  That’s the good news.

Top Tactics for First Ice Walleyes
By Ron Anlauf -
Either you’re in or you’re out.  If you’re in, you’ve already gone through the preparation period of re-rigging and rearranging all of your gear and making sure that everything is up to the task.  If you’re in, the fun is just beginning.  If you’re in, you’ll be on the first safe ice that develops doing you’re best to put a few walleyes on the ice.

These are the fishes, which find their way onto the hooks of anglers favoring other breeds.  Walleye pedants catch them while jigging and toss ‘em aside.  Panfish partisans bring them up, unintentionally, and seem agitated by the encounter.

Walleyes with a Taste for Form & Structure
By Tommy Skarlis - Structure.  It’s a broad term that often gets tossed out in conversation with little thought. But in order to catch walleyes, especially during the winter months, structure is often the key. There are really two types of winter walleye anglers.

Overcoming Zippered Lips - By Tommy Skarlis and Chip Leer
Too often, anglers believe that winter is its own disadvantage.  Near freezing water temperatures slows fish metabolism, resulting in diminished dining.  Lessened appetites demand that we concentrate on peak feeding periods; present smaller baits with more realism; offer more meat than metal, and so on.  Surely, these are truths, but we angle anyway.

Secrets to Icing Walleyes
By Jason Mitchell -
Half the bottom appeared to rise and separate from the bottom so fast on the Vexilar that I practically flinched when the rod buckled. There was no question about getting hit, the fish was on and the game began.

Overcoming Obstacles to Ice-Fishing Success
By Dave Genz - In the past several years, I¹ve found myself using the word Œefficiency¹ more often, whether I¹m talking to somebody out on the ice or answering questions at a seminar. There are some inherent obstacles to overcome in ice fishing, and you¹ll catch way more fish if you learn to be efficient in everything you do.

Southern Style Panfish
By Doug Newhoff with On Ice Tour - To many outdoor enthusiasts, winter in the Midwest means statuesque whitetail bucks and colorful ringneck pheasants. To a growing number of hard-water fishing enthusiasts, it also means panfish, and plenty of them.
