I knew you wouldn’t believe me without photos and I made sure this time we got some. This is the second time in a month that I have went ice-fishing. I know it’s hard to believe but lately I’m willing to try anything once, especially if it means getting out of the house during the dreary winter months!
Here I am using my auger drilling skills, the ice was really deep and I thought I was going to fall in towards the end but I never let go of the auger – rule #1.
Even thought I was bundled up, it got a little cold with the wind on the lake and I decided to fish in the ice shack instead, it was really warm in there! The twins that live next door decided to join me but unfortunately “the fish were sleeping” according to the kids. I think they were right. 
good for you! a girl's gotta have *something* to do during the winter! and you made it look like fun, too! :)
ReplyDeleteAh-HA! That is how you spell Augher! I totally flubbed it ;) You look like you are having fun!!!! Next year the fishies might be awake.
ReplyDeleteGood for you Melissa, trying something new. Too bad the fish weren't biting. Next year I hope you catch a stringer full! I love your photos - what a gorgeous sunny winter weekend we had!
ReplyDelete-t.
Cool! I'm not very excited about cold weather so the ice shack would be the place for me. Way to go for trying a new sport. (I think fishing is a sport?? :) )
