Getting Our Hinney's Kicked On First Ice!

Larry Smith Outdoors

Carbon Score: 8.2

They say "first ice is the best ice," but nobody told the fish that today! Join Larry Smith and the crew as they head out for the highly anticipated season opener. The gear is packed, the excitement is red-lined, and the ice is finally thick enough to walk on—but the bite? That’s a different story. In this episode, Larry keeps it 100% real. From finicky walleyes that refuse to commit to a lure, to a cold front that seems to have locked every jaw in the lake, it’s a masterclass in patience, persistence, and a little bit of suffering.
