Mark Martin's Ice Fishing Vacation School

---

School schedules will be as follows: Sundays orientation 12:00 noon, seminars & tackle preparation. Fishing starting on Mondays through 12:00 noon Wednesdays.

The cost for this year's three full-day event is $575. This includes 1 scoop of minnows everyday and at least 700+ years of combined knowledge taught by the best of the best. The package also includes discounts on lodging and dining, which is to be paid to the local representative once you arrive.

As always, the event will include personal seminars and guided on-the-ice time with the pro-staff and professional instructors, and Sunday evening's "how-to" seminar & tackle rigging time, as well as a trip to the local sport shop for last minute shopping with the pros & pro-staff.

They are large bodies of water or fish large, so we will be getting to and from our fishing spots via quad or snowmobile, as well fishing within an ice shanty. But not to worry for those of you who do not have this type of transportation or a portable shelter as we have options available. Rides out and back with a Pro are $50 a day, pulling your own shanty. Spots are very limited and are first come, first served.

**PLEASE NOTE**
Cancellations: At least 30 days notice of your cancellation is required for a refund. No refunds will be given after that (This is due to the upfront costs involved and arrangements made in advance of the school taking place). Thank you for your cooperation.

"I've attended at least 5 of Marks schools, and can say without a doubt, it has upped my catch by 50%. It makes fishing the big waters much safer and you learn from everyone that attends the school. I recommend this for EVERYONE!"​

"Martin is one of today's best fishing educators, and his ice-fishing schools are always top notch. Even if the fish aren't biting on a particular day, you'll still learn a ton about ice fishing from Mark and the other pro fishermen he engages to instruct. Whether you are a beginner or someone who has been on the ice for years and looking to improve your skills, Mark Martin's ice-fishing schools are highly recommended!"
