I talked about several of my guide-proven, soft plastic tricks for Lake Simcoe's "Big 3:" lake trout, whitefish and perch. It was great to see so many people that pumped up about ice fishing, and I was only to happy to spend as much time with them as possible. Croix Rods booth long after leaving the main stage.
