CONCORD, N.H. - Sportsmen can seek to improve their ice fishing skills during two free ice fishing seminars presented this January at the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department, 11 Hazen Drive in Concord. No preregistration is necessary. Talks always begin at 7:00 p.m.
Catching White Perch and Lake Trout through the Ice - Wednesday, January 4:
Presenter Tim Moore will cover the tools and techniques he uses to catch white perch and lake trout through the ice. He will discuss the equipment he uses, where he finds these fish, and angling techniques he prefers.
"White perch are fun to catch, but I know how it feels to struggle catching them. Hopefully, I can share some information and help other anglers turn the corner on these unique fish," says Moore.
The seminar will have a strong emphasis on white perch, but lake trout can often be caught in the same or similar areas, so Moore will talk about them, as well.
Tim Moore is a full-time New Hampshire fishing guide, outdoor writer, and the producer of Tim Moore Outdoors TV. During the winter months, he guides hundreds of ice anglers from across the country in pursuit of giant white perch and lake trout, and travels the country giving seminars at shows and fishing clubs.
Ice Fishing for Lake Trout and Cusk - Wednesday, January 11:
Expert fisherman Scott Jackson will show how to catch lunker lakers and cusk. Folks will have a chance to learn the fundamentals of lake trout and cusk habits and habitat, finding the fish, selecting equipment, using underwater cameras, fine-tuning your tip-ups, selecting bait and lures, and creating bobhouse comfort, as well as getting some delicious lake trout and cusk recipes. Whether fishermen are new to ice fishing or have fished for years, this seminar will give several tips to put cusk in your chowder and lake trout on your grill.
Jackson is the owner of the NH Outdoor Learning Center and a veteran bush pilot, Registered Maine Guide and Licensed New Hampshire Guide with over 30 years of ice fishing experience in Maine, New Hampshire and Alaska.
