DISCOVERING | Big Bluegills & Historic Snowstorms


Subscribe:


Episode 66 - Ice fishing a tiny lake for giant bluegills when we still had decent ice in December. Bass angler and guide Connor Baccus even reeled in a nice largemouth bass through the ice. And since we have zero snow on the ground in the Upper Peninsula, we take a look back at some historic snowstorm photos with Jack Deo of Superior View Photography.
