Don Cox joins the JMO Podcast to share stories from the past. From the Sandhills in Nebraska, Don and his fishing partner Dave Fehlhafer have been an ice fishing duo going back to the early 90's when they started competed in tournaments. The ice fishing tournament scene attracted many of the top anglers across the midwest in those days. In this interview we hear from Don what it was like to start from the bottom as beginners and work up to become champions against the best competition of the time. We dive deeper into what strategies they implemented and how they evolved as anglers along the way. Nowadays Don and Dave spend their time on the ice more recreationally, traveling and breaking down new water with some of the same vigor and haste as they did in competition. The group has grown with the addition of Don's 4 sons who all adopted the passion for ice fishing in their own right. As an Ice Team member he promotes ice fishing opportunities and shares information through social media or at industry events. The fishing adventures that Don shares on social media each winter are entertaining and informational, just like this podcast.

Tony Mariotti joins the JMO Podcast once again. We chat about some of the fishing he's been doing during this holiday season on early ice. Then we spend some time conversing the topics of fishing new lakes and the strategies Tony employs to be successful when enjoying this type of outing. Tony rarely fishes the same body of water twice in a row and is always searching for the next great bite he can be the first to find. It's this type of energy I like tapping into when I interview him and this podcast is no different.

Steve "Zippy" Dahl is back on the JMO Podcast to share stories and information on what it's like to hunt for giant perch on Devils Lake in North Dakota. Steve has a long famed career on this incredible body of water and his stories of the past are entertaining enough to listen to. It's as the stories are being reminisced that you will discover they're dripping in details that any perch angler will take so much from. The grind of finding new fish, jumbos that are schooling versus spread out, it's in the details that Zippy subtly shares technical information that needs to be noted when planning a destination fishing trip to Devils Lake, North Dakota.
