Onota Boat Livery - Ice Fishing

What's there to do in the winter?
ICE FISHING, of course!

Walk out on the ice in your La Crosse boots and
creepers, dragging your bait bucket and gear
behind you in your Jet Sled. Check the ice
periodically with your chisel, and when you reach
your "sweet" spot, set up your shelter and drill a
few holes with your hand or power auger (make
sure that power auger has oil!). Get the tip-ups
with fresh tilt line out of your pack basket,
check the depth with your sounder, make sure
your steel leaders are ok and your hooks are
sharp, then bait 'em up and drop 'em down. If
it's slow and the beer isn't cold enough yet,
break out your jigging rod and favorite jigs, pop
on some mousees and give it a try. Hey!…flag's
up! Grab your skimmer and gaffe, pull off your
gloves, and run for it...this could be the BIG one!

Got everything you need? If not, have your buddies watch your stuff
while you head over to our place...you'll see why we're known as
