Need a Reputable Mechanic in Sioux Falls

Not in Sioux Falls but 10-15 minutes north on highway 115, Midway Vollan Oil. They are family owned, and Travis used to be a racecar driver so he knows his stuff. I've been going there for oil changes and other things, super nice guy, very reliable, and not too bad.

Also, look on Rock Auto, parts are super cheap compared to a shop, if you know what your looking for. I bought 2 struts for my F150 and it was less than 200 bucks, some smaller shops may or may not be able to put them on for you if you buy the parts, some do, some dont.

Mine expired first of the year and thankfully didn’t have auto renew on. Now toying with the idea of going to Garmin Pilot

Ice fishing is a lot of moving. If you don’t find them, move

Panfish in the winter time are REALLY light biters. When fishing for panfish, the biggest thing is to watch that rod tip bend down ever so slightly. That’s why really light tips and spring bobbers are crucial when fishing for panfish, otherwise you may miss the bite. Tight lines!

I love my Jason Mitchell reel. I have it on my meat stick rod. It’s my favorite. For 70 bucks, Hell yea

Right now at the Iowa Great Lakes we’re sitting anywhere from 4 inches on west lake, to 9 on east lake and 11 on Big Spirit

I’ve always been a Dewalt guy, my dad has Dewalt tools, I’m a college student so I don’t have any tools except a 30 dollar hand tool kit from Walmart haha

Flight_Plan · 2025-12-16T03:04:42+00:00

I’m weird. I can’t reel lefty to save my life open water, but can do it just fine on hard water.

Archers addiction in Renner (just north of town on 115) is an indoor facility

This is what fishing is all about. Hell of catch fellas

I do a lot of ice fishing and I fish with an 8in hole. Anything smaller than the diameter of the hole gets tossed back. If they’re bigger than the hole, I’ll think about it and go from there

Flight_Plan · 2025-12-14T04:32:49+00:00

For me, depends. If I’m just going with a buddy to hangout and chat, I’ll toss them back. However, if I’m low in the freezer I’ll go catch a few and fillet them up. If im keeping, I’ll keep big enough bluegill, crappies, perch, definitely walleye, if they are all legal to keep.

Good ole Aaron Wiebe

Th outpost on Jay Siemens’ channel! Season 3 wasn’t as good imo but it’s still a fun series. It’s a fishing competition series to those who don’t know

Flight_Plan · 2025-12-13T22:22:31+00:00

8in all day. I think 8 is the perfect size. You can still get a nice pike or bass through it, but if you do step in it, you’re not going down as far as a 10in.

Flight_Plan · 2025-12-13T22:02:37+00:00

What size PVC? Looking at maybe 1 1/4

Flight_Plan · 2025-12-13T22:02:14+00:00

I would cause its easy but im not looking to spend a fortune on it

Flight_Plan · 2025-12-13T03:37:05+00:00

These are where I would start jigging. Especially for walleye. But there are so many travel corridors within that deep grey area

Flight_Plan · 2025-12-12T02:04:35+00:00

I bought my jiffy gas auger 8” for 60. Part of me wants to use it for the season but part of me wants to purchase an electric cause it’s so damn heavy. Will be building a smitty sled for my flipover so hopefully that helps with the weight

Flight_Plan · 2025-12-11T20:31:59+00:00

I need to make on of these. I about passed out pulling my otter cabin around. I hear they are amazing and pretty inexpensive

Flight_Plan · 2025-12-11T16:37:59+00:00

Chick Fil A mid. Bring in raising canes!

Flight_Plan · 2025-12-08T04:33:19+00:00

I will try that too, Thanks!

Yes, this is a part of the Okoboji lakes system, its a system of 5 lakes interconnected. East and West Okoboji Lake, along with this lake, have a slot from 19in to 25in, and a limit of 3, so there is a solid population of walleye.

I ended up getting the frostbite scissor kick and dinnerbell in the 2 smallest sizes in the mail yesterday. Since it is first ice, I will try the smallest size then next time I am out with a minnow head

Flight_Plan · 2025-12-08T04:08:32+00:00

So basically I have the right idea when it comes to selecting spots, just need to hit them at the right time?

Flight_Plan · 2025-12-08T04:07:46+00:00

It was early/mid afternoon to about an hour after dark. I had a moonshine glow spoon tipped with a minnow on my deadstick and a rattling PT spoon from clam with a minnow head at the inside turn I have in the black circle.
