Ice Fishing with Flies

Written by Cory Koenig   
Wednesday, 28 December 2011 02:04

So we all know that lures, spoons and bait work ice fishing, and sometimes anything works. What a large amount of people DO NOT know is that FLIES work as well, sometimes much better than the previously mentioned. I personally have used my FLIES ice fishing for 20+ years. Sometimes when it is slow, I will use small solid color and/or multi color leeches, damsels, dragonfly larvae, and HUGE water beetles, Gummy minnows are a favorite of mine, chronomids, etc. ... all with fantastic results. photo3rbk_2  IMG_3856  IMG_6045  IMG_5674 All of these flies catch fish while ice fishing.`

Another determining factor is the knot. Most ice fishing hooks are JIG style for a reason. Up or down turned eyed hooks with split shot added to the line or hook, and in most cases the regular know will do, but you will have to always check that it is centered on the hok eye as well as placed and tightened in a fashion that allows the hook to be in a 90 degree angle at all times.

Personally I have used the non-slip loop knot for any type of fishing. This allows the fly to have a free movement, regardless of how it is fished. IMG_6712 This is what this knot looks like just before tightening.

Another key factor in icefishing with any type of lure/fly is how you jig it. Tapping the ice and the surface of the water with your lure/fly can definately attract some fish species like brook trout, to the point that if the fish sees the lure/fly splashing and clicking the edge of the hole, they will jump fast enough to jump clear out of the hole. The first few trips of the year when the ice is 2-3 inches thick is when this may happen when fishing brook trout. Some flies are very light, and most of the time they will decend through the water column slowly, slowing your jigging times. Other flies are heavier, thus jigging will be much quicker and sparratic, usually enticing a reaction or instinctive strike from the fish. Try one type of jigging for a few minutes, if you do not get a strike, switch to a non similar jigging action to fool the fish another way. I really like dropping the fly until the line is taught, them slowlytwitching it up to the top of the hole, some species are driven bananas by this technique.

There it is, a few pointers to think about when you go icefishing next, hope you enjoyed, thanks!

And Patience!!



Thaw fish as/if needed,
cut ends of fillets if needed, freezer burn-cut off!


lay on newspaper-get lots!(helps cleaning big time!)

Mix in bowl:
1kg bag brown DEMERRA sugar w 1cup pickling salt,-dry! Wash hands!

Cut pieces of fish of desired size.
Lay in container, rub sugar/salt mixture(dry) on meat sides, layering fish skin side down on top of dry rub and lower meat sides as needed.

Add any pickle juice in fridge if on hand!

Leave for12-16 hours in the coolest place in your house. -Dry rub will Liquify-!

Rainbow Alley BIG BOW FISHING-2011

Written by Cory Koenig   
Wednesday, 09 November 2011 07:44

        markpngill2011 This june I had the pleasure of fishing and filming with Sportfishingbc's 20 year host MARK PENDLINGTON and GILL McKEAN-owner/operator of WESCOAST FISHING ADVENTURES at the outflow of BABINE LAKE, a wonderful 1km stretch of slow meandering water called RAINBOW ALLEY. We fished a little of the afternoon and finished filming by noon the next day. The FORT BABINE LODGE accomdated us with help from the fine managers, BRIAN and ALLISON PORTER.

>>CLICK HERE TO WATCH SPORTFISHINGBC with MARK PENDLINGTON<< at RAINBOW ALLEY!

The fishing was great, using dry lines and minnow patterns between 1 1/4 and 2 1/2 inches long. Large Coho fry imitationsthgs seemed to be the pattern of choice on this trip. instead of casting down on a 45 degree angle, we found that the fry were fleeing downstream head first and the BIG BOWS were attacking them as if they were starving! While filming we found alive fry patterns swimming out of the mouths of these most beautiful colored rainbows! Although we had lost all of our LARGER fish to the current at the boat, we got to see a few brightly colored rainbowP7030010 like nowhere else in B.C.P7020008 Rainbow Alley has a few different hatches with the stonefly hatch and the constant emergence of salmon alevinalevinrainbowalley and moving/migrating fryzz9 and smoltsphottreo. After swinging the flies traditionally, we found that in fact, casting upstream, creating a very large loop, pulling the fly downstream in a down-and-across fashion was the ticket to fooling these fine monster trout!

The trip was very fast as we were back into Smithers within 20 hours of leaving town!

If you need any assistance about fishing the Smithers area, and of corse, FLIES, please send me a message here>> This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it <<

Rainbow Alley FRY M+M's MINNOW-2011

Written by Cory Koenig   
Monday, 27 June 2011 05:25

RAINBOW ALLEY FRY-2011 M+M's FRY

fwud9upfthgs

RECIPE for M+M's Minnow-
1-I first wrap a base of thread on a size 2 3x long shank streamer style hook.

2-Then I tied on two pieces of toothpicks, one for the top, one for the bottom of the shank. -This provides a almost "neutrally bouyant" fry pattern.

3- Wrap thread tightly over toothpick pieces, finishing at the rear of the toothpick.

4-Cut a piece of mylar tubing and fray at one end, push it over the shank until the fray part meets the hook bend, tie down.

5-Take a backing material, could be pheasant tail, iceabou, DNA Holofusion and cut about 2 inches, tie on top of fly for the back color, tie off thread at rear of fly.

6- re-start thread behind the eye of the hook and over the mylar tubing, snip off excess mylar.

7-pull backing over the top of the fly tightly, tie off and trim behind the eye.

8-add eyes of your choice, felt in parr marks, coat with Hardhead, simple, strong, effective fry pattern that BIG rainbow on Rainbow Alley.

023Recently off th coast of Prince Rupert, B.C., Captain Gord with Water witch excursions had the opportunity to use a CUSTOM TIED 12 inch long SQUID TUBE FLY by WEBFLYZ B.C. with obvious results! Tied on a tube allows for multiple uses if leader or hook needs replacing. Built originally for TROPHY TROUT in British Columbia, now these SQUID patterns are used for Salmon, Grouper, Ling Cod, MARLIN and soo many more SPECIES! 
 

Toothpick Minnow for Trout

Written by Cory Koenig   
Thursday, 09 June 2011 05:28

Here is a quick, simple way of imitating any minnow, alevin, fry or smolt for a wide variety of trophy trout that EAT FISH!

Seen here is 6/0 thread, tan in color, size #6 vision hook (black), small mylar cord, and iceabou in herring green to tie this fly. You can add eyes, coat them with sally hansens' nail polish or HARD HEAD, but for 20 years I personally fished this style of baitfish without eyes, and have many memories that last a lifetime versus store-bought flies. Enjoy!

ihvpzStart by selecting your hook of choice, and fully wrap the shank with your thread, finishing at the point of the hook.

ihxTake a toothpick, measure the length needed, leaving room to build the head of the fly, cut and place on the top of the shank.

kutsswTightly wrap thread around toothpick and shank, continuing to the eye of the fly and return to build a base of thread behind the rear-most part of the toothpick.

opgfdFind small sized mylar tubing, cut to length, allowing enough room for the tail at the rear and the pectoral fins at the front of the fly. Slide over the hook shank and toothpick, wrap thread over the mylar and thread base built just beforehand at the rear of the toothpick.

zz1

zz2Select topping material for the back of the minnow fly. Here iceabou in herring green is used. Tied down over the same wraps at the rear of the toothpick.

zz5Whip finish and clip.

zz6aRe-start thread wraps behing eye of hook, wrapping over mylar tubing, then over the topping of the fly and secure.

zz9Fold the Myalr and topping material(iceabou) under the eye of the hook, resembling pectoral fins of the baitfish you desire and clip to length. Add Parr marks with a felt pen if you like, and/or eyes and coat the entire fly with HARD HEAD for a SUPER STRONG, DURABLE body. Fish with wet, sink tip or dry line and hang on!  Thanks for reading, have a great day!
