spy1o1 Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 I went up to Cadillac this weekend with two friends to kick off the ice fishing season. We fished Lake Mitchell which had at least 6" of ice. Had lots of action and ended up catching 7 pike and a few blue gills and small perch. we heard people on lake cadillac were catching big pike and lots of crappie. Had my aqua vu along and took this movie with my digital camera. This was the only pike that took its time eating the shiner so I recorded it. (2 min long and 5.8mb) CC38mmaECTc
JWheeler Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 Yep that was real cool. Was the fishing good?
Mike Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 That is an awesome video. Were you able to watch the fish strike live, I noticed you were jigging the shiner a bit.
Storm Warning II Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 I swear that fish was smiling for the camera!
shu9265 Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 That was awesome ! Thought he was gonna eat the camera too..Thanks for sharing that with us.
Losin Lures Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 Thanks for the post. That was really neat to watch espscially when the fish was looking at the camera.
spy1o1 Posted December 17, 2007 Author Posted December 17, 2007 I tried to catch a strike on video but it happens so fast that we usually just saw a flash of the pike then scales floating in the water from the shiner.jigging the shiner seemed to be the key for catching pike. we caught 5 pike by jigging and 2 pike off tip ups. The pike we caught were all just shy of 24". we stayed at pilgrim village and the pike we seen come off lake cadillac were all 30" and up.
