Ice Fishing 2009!


Well, this weekend a bunch of the guys headed up into the hills to do what men like to do....fish. Not just any kind of fishing...middle of winter, freezing cold, can't feel your fingers for two days, drill holes through the 2 foot thick ice kind of fishing. It was a good time. There were 15 of us that went and we stayed in huge cabin right along side the lake...well, frozen lake. It was cold. Quite a few fish found their way to the surface on the end of a line and it sure is daunting when they just sit down there and rub up against your line for half the day taunting you. The good news, none of us got skunked...everybody caught fish and most everybody had at least a handful to brag about. Not too shabby. There were reports of moose sightings in the area in the few days before we got there, but we didn't get lucky enough to see one this trip. It was like a winter wonderland up there with at least a few feet of snow on the ground. It's really fun to go enjoy it for a couple days and then head back down to the warmer city :-) For those of you out there that think this looks fun, we try to go every year, so if you are interested in going next year, let me know...
