Jigging for Spring Panfish
Although I always find it hard to put away my ice fishing gear, I do relish the days when I can get the boat in the water and search for spring panfish.
Ice Fishing the Dirty Dozen
I like having my Dirty Dozen favorite lakes and enjoy checking them out on an annual basis to see which ones are producing the best.
Basin Basics for Panfish
When it comes to winter ice fishing, I like to keep it simple. I also like to catch fish. And yes, these two concepts are totally compatible.
Channel Cats: An Interesting Winter Experience
I remember when the DNR first talked about stocking channel cats into the Horseshoe Chain of Lakes near Cold Spring, Minnesota.

Fishing the Multi-Species Option
Not every lake is a good multi-species option. My number one requirement for a quality multi-species lake is one with a distinct deep weedline.

My strategy is to keep the boat outside of the weedline and cast to the inside of the weed edge.
Targeting Early Season Bass
The first couple of months of the game fish season are always a relished time of the year for me.
