Get it ready in your sled in order to be able to pitch your tent and drill holes quickly and efficiently once you arrive at your fishing destination.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span>Make sure that your ice auger works well and that the blades are sharp and pierce efficiently. Either a couple of days prior, or the night before, think about sharpening the blades with the proper tools or getting them replaced if they are too dull. Believe us: without a hole, ice fishing will be quite the challenge!<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span>Store and organize your lures and hooks in a tackle box and make sure that they\u2019re in good condition and that they have not rusted.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span>A soft bag including storage compartments, such as the ones offered at SAIL will allow you to store a lot of material in addition to making transport easier for all your fishing supplies.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span>[stag_button url=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/fishing\/fishing-accessories\/tackle-boxes-bags\" style=\"orange\" size=\"small\" type=\"normal\" target=\"_blank\" icon=\"\" icon_order=\"before\"]Shop[\/stag_button]<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<span>Place your fishing rods, reels, boxes and fishing accessories covered and secure in a carry bag; you will avoid damaging your gear.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span>Finally, the evening before your ice fishing trip, make sure that the batteries in your sonar and ice auger are charged. Make sure the fuel in your ice drill is at a good level if you have one with a motor and that the propane you\u2019re bringing is enough for your heater.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><span>Tip #2 \u2014 Scope out prime fishing spots<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span>Being able to identify the spots where fish are hiding is essential in order to have a successful outing. No matter the body of water from which you are fishing, target the places where fish tend to gather: river mouths, rocky cliffs, deeper seabeds, ditches and trenches, large rocks, etc. Your catches will be more fruitful if you are able to scope out these spots before beginning to fish.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span>Using a sonar can help you find these spots. As well, a topographic map of the waterbed from which you are fishing is a truly helpful tool that\u2019s super efficient and less pricey.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span>Moreover, using an app such as Navionics Boating can save you a lot of time as it allows you to track yourself in real time on marine maps on the body of water on which you find yourself. By using the SonarChart mode on the app, you\u2019ll be able to see water depth as well as track a couple of perfect sports to fish.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span>Depending on the waterbed underneath you, you may opt to add between 1.5 to 3 meters (5-10 feet) of fluorocarbon line at the end of your fishing line if you\u2019re fishing in clear water, as fish can see better closer to the surface of the water. Consequently, you should fish at a distance of about 60 to 90 cm (2-3 feet) from the waterbed so that the fish can more easily spot your lures.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span>[stag_button url=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/fishing\/sonars\/sonars)\" style=\"orange\" size=\"small\" type=\"normal\" target=\"_blank\" icon=\"\" icon_order=\"before\"]Shop[\/stag_button]<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><span>Tip #3 \u2014 Do some prospecting<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span>We suggest that you begin prospecting in the fall, by navigating the water by boat to find some good fishing spots. This will allow you to save time in the winter when ice fishing seasons opens.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span>Study the habits and way of life of the fish that you will target, as their movement varies from species to species.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span>If you haven\u2019t had the chance to do some prospecting during the fall, opt for a sonar, a primary time-saving tool, or head out walking or on a snowmobile to explore. Drill some holes here and there, and analyze each spot with your sonar. Don\u2019t overuse it, however, so that you still have enough battery power for your fishing outing.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span>It\u2019s important to note that it\u2019s a good idea to avoid fishing near other anglers. The fish aren\u2019t na\u00efve \u2013 they\u2019ll be able to detect fishing rods as well as the presence of many humans, and will likely distance themselves from groupings.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span>What are the benefits to prospecting? It will help you be sure to find the \u201cfishiest\u201d spots, even in the heart of winter. Most important: don\u2019t forget to take note of your newfound fishing spots.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><span>Tip #4 \u2014 Keep an eye on the weather conditions<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span>Sometimes, you can have the best lure, be at the right place at the right time, have the right technique, and still\u2026no bites! Frustrating, right? To increase your chances of making a catch, keep an eye on the weather conditions, the time of day, the moon, the tide (if applicable), as well as every other little detail that could put the odds of a catch in your favour.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span>Keep a fishing journal where you can take note of precise bits of data, as well as the results of your fishing excursion. After a while, re-read your journal and you\u2019ll surely get a sense of which conditions are the most favourable.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span>Your results will be affected greatly by the time you fish as well as the location. In general, the morning is the best time for making catches. Additionally, if you fish in the Fjord in the Saguenay region of Quebec, be sure to check out when the tide is high or low. Our tip is to go when the tide is either coming in or going out to put all odds in your favour.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span>As time progresses, you\u2019ll be able to plan your ice fishing trips according to the best conditions that you have observed.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><span>Tip #5 \u2014 Stay safe<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span>Safety is the word of the day when it comes to ice fishing. Of course, the goal is to have fun, but you should always be careful to avoid accidents by checking the width of the ice before proceeding. Make sure that the layer of ice is thick enough before heading out onto the lake safely:<\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><span>At least 10 cm (4 inches) of blue ice if you are heading out on foot<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li><span>At least 12 cm (5 inches) of blue ice if you are heading out on an ATV or snowmobile<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li><span>Between 20 and 30 cm (8 to 12 inches) of blue ice if you are heading out in a smaller car<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li><span>Between 30 to 38 cm (12 to 15 inches) of blue ice if you are heading out in a larger, heavyweight vehicle<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<span>Never venture out onto the ice if its thickness is less than 7 cm (3 inches) and don\u2019t begin your season too early or end too late; no point in taking an unnecessary safety risk.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span>Always have a rope in your bag. It can come in handy in a multitude of situations from repairing equipment or helping someone who has fallen.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span>Plus, bring along a change of clothes; this can save your life if ever the temps become icily cold and you need to warm up quickly. If you\u2019re the type of person who loves exploring and always pushes it one step further, bring along a compass or a GPS to help you find your way.<\/span>\r\n<h2><span>Bonus Tips<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li><span>Never miss a bite: tie a bell to the end of your fishing rod when it\u2019s on a support stand. Use tip-ups with covers so that the water in the hole doesn\u2019t freeze and your line doesn\u2019t get stuck in the ice.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li><span>Don\u2019t let your line rest for too long. Move it around as often as possible to attract fish. Be patient and don\u2019t rush.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li><span>You can also use fluorescent fishing line. A fluorescent flashlight will help brighten it even more and attract more fish.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li><span>Consider using attractants (gel or spray odours) on your lures to peak the fish\u2019s interest.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<span>In conclusion, we hope that our tips will prove fruitful for you and that you\u2019ll have successful ice fishing adventures this winter. Get out into nature and explore, there\u2019s no reason to stay cooped up inside this winter!<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<span><em>Article by J\u00e9r\u00f4me Charest et David Tremblay, from the Wildcats team<\/em><\/span>\r\n<span> <em>The Wildcats group consists of fishing enthusiasts who are, above all, friends first.
