Scott & Kody Seibert
If you press this father-and-son team, you might get them to admit they love pursuing big bluegills best. But their ice-fishing credentials extend to many species, and many places. The ingredient common in both Seiberts is a blend of experience, determination and love of the sport that leads them from the edge of the lake to a successful outing.
They both admit to being fortunate to fish side-by-side with great ice fishermen, including at many Trap Attack competitions. But, along the way, Scott and Kody have developed a personal approach to the sport worthy of study. These days, the Seiberts have also developed a passion for teaching others what they have learned, making them great additions to the Ice Team.
