Ice Fishing!
Last Sunday Kelly took me ice fishing for the first time. I was a little apprehensi
ve, this is something I never thought I would do. For two reasons 1- I don't like cold & 2- I really don't like to be cold. However I do like to fish, and I live in Idaho. I am learning to tolerate the cold a little bit. I don't like it, but I can't change it so I guess I will have to deal with it. We borrowed a hut and heater from Kelly's uncle and set out on our adventure. We couldn't have picked a better day, the sun was shinning and the wind wasn't
blowing. In this part of the country that makes a huge difference in the temperature.
When we showed up there was a lot of people, but that was ok there was still plenty of room for us. (sorry about the pics, I didn't realize my camera was on b&w) It really didn't take very long to get set up and get the heater going. That little hut got warm in a hurry. Kelly's grandpa came with us and I don't think he ever left the hut. I had a great time and stayed quite comfortable. We did have to wait about 5 hours before we caught anything. Then a couple of schools came
by and we caught 21 fish in about 30 mins. All in all it was a great time and I would do it again.
