How to Keep Perch Fired Up And Aggressive When Ice Fishing!

Ice fishing for perch can be fast—or painfully frustrating. On big basin flats, schools of perch are constantly moving, and if you can’t stay with them, the bite dies just as fast as it starts. In this video, we’re chasing roaming perch on a northern Minnesota lake, breaking down the exact system we use to stay on the school and keep fish biting long enough to put together a two-man limit of quality perch. You’ll see how we combine forward-facing sonar with nearby set lines to act as early-warning signals when the school slides back through the area. When a line trips, we know the fish are back—and we’re ready to capitalize. We also cover a tag-team ice fishing technique where two anglers work the same hole back-to-back, keeping the school’s attention and triggering aggressive follow-up bites instead of letting fish drift away.
