Angler Profile

The One “Go To” Rapala Lure:

Rapala Rippin' Rap® #4 or #3  Glow Yellow Perch color for walleye and perch as a search lure to pick of the more aggressive fish. 

Hailing from White, South Dakota, Eric Kracke is a hardcore angler who’s passion is on ice. Growing up in South Dakota’s world renowned Glacial Lakes region, Eric cut his teeth fishing the area’s jumbo perch, slab panfish, and quality walleyes. Known as someone who enjoys exploring new water and new bites, Kracke can be found chasing bites all over the Midwest and Canada during the cold winter months.M

Also an accomplished ice tournament stick, Kracke has several top finishes on waters all across South Dakota. He loves to teach his craft to others eager to learn or those totally new to the sport. He is an annual contributing pro at an event for underprivileged boys in the Black Hills called “Hooked on Hardwater”. While there, Kracke teaches his passion for ice fishing to boys who under normal circumstances, would never get the opportunity – something he truly enjoys.

When he’s not out fishing, Eric enjoys bird hunting, deer hunting, and raising his family in Sioux Falls, SD. He can be found on facebook and representing Ice Force brands at shows in South Dakota.
