I used my Ice auger to drill a few holes in a couple different places looking for the depth that I wanted to fish in.
I have not had to much luck in depths from 30 to 50 feet deep,
I found an area which is 75 feet deep, drilled two holes about 50 feet apart, we are allowed to have two lines while Ice fishing.
I was ready to spend a few hours fishing. but I caught my limit , which is two fish in our lake, in less than 30 minutes. which was a surprise.
I like my fish a bit spicy so I took.
1 tsp of Onion powder
1 tsp of lemon pepper seasoning
1 tsp of seasoning salt
I mixed the spices together.
Placed the fillets, skin side down on paper towels on a cookie sheet and sprinkled the mixed spices onto the fillets.
The paper towels will soak up some of the moisture released by the salt.
I put them in the refrigerator for two hours before cooking them.
I mixed two tablespoons of brown sugar and one tsp of soy sauce, to make a paste to put on the fish just before it was placed on the barbecue.
This mixture will caramelize nicely on the fish.
I preheated the barbecue to about 400 degrees, placed the filets skin side down on the grill and cooked them for 15 minutes with the top down.
When the fish was done I took a metal pancake turner and placed it between the meat and the skin and slid it along , leaving the skin stuck to the grill.
The fish turned out great, you can adjust the ingredients to suit you taste.
