PEOPLE ARE FISHING AROUND HERE


There is a lot of fishing being done around here lately, (Lake Champlain Islands)
Here is Mr. Nook all dressed up for the elements, it gets cold out there.




You can find shanties for rent around here, someone posted their rental sign on a phone pole.




Some drive their vehicles right on the ice then set up their shanties and their gear for the day.




A few weekends ago there was an annual ice fishing derby.  People that enter their fish in the contest have them hanging on boards at different places (stores) these are weighted and tagged.  These are Northern Pike, pretty good hah?



Some areas turn into little villages where many gather in one spot.  Must be fish are in this area otherwise these people would not be here.

Warm weather will be here soon and the ice fishing will be over for yet another year.
Have you ever gone ice fishing?
Thanks for stopping by.
