[QUOTE="iowafarmer, post: 618252, member: 7792"] ok, this is what portable ice shacks are for. Amazing inventions portable iceshacks. thats also y i have a power auger drilling 20 holes through 14 inch ice to much work on a day off and a day of fishing is meant to be lazy. We also have heaters so that we can sit in t shirts and jeans in them and dont stand out on the ice when its that cold. The friend you call up to take along is the one that has the underwater camera adn vexlar. Course we have Okiboji and Spirit lake here in northwest iowa which are crystal clear lakes in the winter for some reason. So the vexlar really isnt nessisary. Its like fishing in an aquarium. You can see the botom in 16 feet of water which is really something. And for the record there is only one way to clean fish and that is to fillet them. Take the knife adn cut right behind the fin on the side. Cut to the backbone and then cut along it to the tail. Then flip it open and fillet the meat from the skin. Then cut along the rib cage adn then all the bones are gone. You should check for bones just in case you missed some. Tehn there are only a few ways to cook them. The best one is to crush up saltine crackers and add butter adn bread the fillets in it and fry them. Delishouse. Flour works also. Deep fat frying is last but it gets the job done. Yes, Minnesota has yellow perch. They are some of the best eating fish out there. There is nothing comparible to catching jumbo perch also. When you get over top of a school or find a hole full of them and they are biting its like a kid in a candy shop. You jsut drop dow na jig with a minnow and pull them up one afater another. The bigggest perch i have ever caught is a 13 inch long perch. That is a big perch. I have seen a few 15 adn 16 inch perch caught and those are jsut sows.
