Our Ice Fishing 101 class is a hands on learning experience where you get to experience ice fishing with the latest equipment and technology. You will learn how pick a place to fish, run the power auger, set up a portable shack, set tips ups, use tip downs, and use a jig rod. We also cover using electronics, gps and a fish cleaning demo will be given. All bait and equipment is provided and you will have the opportunity see what ice fishing is all about.

The final class of the year will be held in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan on Sawyer Lake. This class is sponsored by Mid Town Bait and Tackle in Channing Michigan.
