Weather: Freaking cold! -32 celcius
Crew: Toon, Lisa, Annie, Mum, Dad
Target Fish: Lake Trout
Bait: Small Lures
Berley: None
Catch: 1 lake trout
Report: An absolutely amazing experience. Always wanted to try ice fishing, i just didn’t imagine it would be that cold! Scooted out to the lake on three snowmobiles. Threw a 6 month pregnant wife off it at one stage and tipped the snowmobile. All was fine luckily! Got to the lake then augured 5 holes to fish from. After about 30-45 mins of fishing we finally landed a small lake trout about 30cm in length. The fishing line froze as you jigged the lure up and down and as a result you couldn’t reel in the fish so had to skull drag him up through the hole. Had to unhook him pretty quick fast otherwise the fish would have frozen up. Threw him back after a couple of pics.
