Frozen Lakes and Ice Fishing Dreams......

Good Morning ALL...How are you all doing?..We here in the North are good...Got lots of snow last night about 5-10 cms and are in for about 5-10 cms today again...Looks very pretty though with the sunshine this morning and the crisp snow...A low of -18 last night..Our coldest night yet..As my hubby would say good cold temperatures to freeze the lake..We are not only a hunting family ..My hubby is an AVID icefisherman...Well and I have to admit that I do love to icefish too...CRAZY I know...But there is something about being out in the freezing cold all bundled up in an ice hut that has a fire burning drinking coffee or hot chocolate and catching fish...lol Fun Fun..Thats what we do in the North to pass the long winter...But really its pretty much the norm here...If you go for a drive to Callander Bay about January 2..Considering the lakes are frozen well...Its a little city if ice huts out there...I will have to post a picture when it becomes a little city...It is a sight to see...There is ice roads and they drive their cars right out on the ice...There has to be at least 12 inches of ice to do that...Well I am not convinced..I like about 3 feet at all times...But apparently they say its safe to walk on when there is 3 inches...Oh My....But needless to say we are an icefishing family..My hubby built an ice hut the first year we moved here...Well it is quite big and very cosy...Here are some photos of the building of the ice hut and fishing and fish caught....Now Jesse is going to be an icefisherman too.. and no doubt Owen...Jesses favourite thing last winter was the snowmobile ..He loved going for a ride on the snowmobile...Owen I think is going to follow suit as he is very adventurous as well...He LOVES it outdoors as well and all the boy things that Daddy and Jesse enjoy..So yes I am out numbered...So I say If you cant beat them join them so thats what I do...Our Ice fishing family...!!!!!!!!!...Well thats all for now and let me just say...Its 26 days till Christmas..Have a wondeful day .....Till next time...
