Re: Ice fishing help ?
I use a single 5/0 octopus hook through the back and 3' of 60-80 floro. I like the single hooks because they're easier to deal with on the ice. Usually the hook is in the corner of the mouth and its a lot quicker to get one hook out instead of 2 trebles. Their eyes and gills can freeze and they can bang themselves up flopping around on the ice so the quicker you get them back the better. I carry a bag to evey flag with pliers, jaw spreader, boga, knife, tape, scale and camera.
