Team Snyders Nick Elm had a amazing “First Ice” trip with our new Red Lake Bandit!
It has been an incredible night on first ice, in the glacial prairie lakes of northeastern South Dakota tonight in heavy snow and wind! coming out the full moon a few days ago the big perch and walleyes are feeding heavy up in extremely shallow water on Frogs and small panfish fry as we confirmed in the stomach contents of a several of the kept fish. We worked the brand new Red Lake Bandits in the bright UV Clown finishes tipped with minnow halves and it was lights out! We iced several fish over 20″ inches in a short time span with one 27″ inch healthy walleye. We also filled on 15-17 inch eyes in addition to some true jumbo perch between 11-13 inches that were rolling through with the walleyes. The Red Lake Bandit fished fast and flashy like an injured minnow and truly called in fish from a distance around as we fished it high in the shallow water column.
