I have done this before on the Lester River and I have read about it being done with a long rod out East, They actually hit pretty hard. First time I did it I didn't know what I had on as we were fishing for trout.

Pretty sure that's not Grindstone. Back ground, that a multi hook line like that is legal and I have never caught them a foot under the ice in over 100" feet of water.  :scratch:
But, I will refer to RH1 on this one.   
Just looked and he has a bunch of vids on UTube.  Pretty sure he's in Canada!

Cooking over a open fire is all fun and games until someone losses a wiener!

He just posted this one a bit ago, and measured the ice...at 9-10". Is it that thick on Grindstone today?  :scratch: we need to investigate.... :police:
