73. "Moronic" Fishing for a Maine Icon

from On The Water · host On The Water

With even the saltwaters freezing in the Northeast, it's prime time to break out the augers and tip-ups. In this episode, Jimmy Fee, Alex Blackwell, and Matt Haeffner talk about the "moronic sport" of ice fishing. Alex recounts a recent trip to Maine targeting 4- and 5-pound brook trout through the ice; Matt Haeffner talks about his wet and cold first step into ice fishing; and Jimmy relates jigging through the ice to running-and-gunning for tuna.
