Your choice I guess.

Polishing rusty old lanterns and bringing them back to function again and catching fish without a modern sissy crutch, I know this is all hard for a gal like you to understand. I am wrong for expecting you to. Bless your heart!


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

People use bait still?

Used some frozen squid when I was in the keys, but haven't used minnows, worms, crayfish, etc in well...pretty much ever.

I can catch fifty bass in a day and change tube jigs three times maybe. And only when it is so beat to crap it doesn't resemble a tube any more. And that's if they are slow. Most days just throw the same spinnerbait I have on most of the summer.

Might trap some minnows this winter, but probably use the same strips of walleye belly skin that has generally always outfished minnows.


JP, you mentioned using yours for ice. Does it have Bluetooth? My buddies hummingbird goes to his phone so he can watch me teasing Lakers from 40 feet away in the shack. He'll see me get a hit and get all excited. Lol

Yeah, auto correct left off the A lol, ya knothead. My Mama died 2 years ago and I don't troll. Idiots like you accuse people of trolling because you have no other argument, lack of intelligence. Honestly, if it weren't raining and my fingers and wrist weren't so screwed up, I'd be fishing. So now, well you guessed it lol.

Brought my pack rod to Cuba this past winter. Apparently fishing from the resort is seen as strange for some reason. Went with some Cuban locals later on though. They knew the spots. Some un cooked shrimp "borrowed" from the kitchen and we were off.

All inclusive means bait too, right?

Ended up at one of the Cubans cousins restaurant after a few miles through the bush. They fried up what we caught. Was a good time. No tourists at the little restaurant either.

$1000 Canadian and want to use it for winter?

Forget about it, your budget isn't high enough. If you want to use a summer/winter unit, you'll want a live scope. That will run you 2500 US or abouts.

Personally I think for a hard core run an gun type ice fishing, I'll take my vexilar over a Live Scope.

For a summer unit look for one that is compatible with lake chips for water bodies you intend to fish.

Than save another $1000 and guy a Vexilar/Hummingbird digital unit.

Thanks 49 er
my Lk Winnipeg is not run and gun
after all my research in fisheries I know they move when they want
looking at some of the individual pings off some of the tracked fish tells you this, catch one and they send all the data for that fish. Gota love freedom of information in Canada. or who you know =how you know
Buddy is setting one up now to have the trolling motor run the contours.

My limited experience on Lake Winnipeg is it's proved beneficial to move several times a day vs staying stationary all day.

Not a 40 50 holes a day type fishing but moving non the less.

My Helix 7 I just bought will be used for ice fishing too. I paid $750CDN for it, then paid $50 for the battery which is dumb that I had to buy it separately.
The only thing I need to buy now is the transducer which is $133.

So about $1000 and should be good for ice fishing with it.

I will also buy a case for it, so that is extra, but not absolutely needed. Some guys make their own.

JP, the Helix will work in the winter. My opinion is the Vexilar or Hummingbird winter units are better.
