This past weekend in Minnesota there was a Ice Fishing Contest in Alexandra MN, on Lake Agnes. Over 2,000 folks slapped down their $35.00 for this Ice Fishing Contest.....Not a singe fish was caught!

During the winter fish metabolism slows down, and they conserve their energy, waiting for Spring...

That is why I don't ice fish, I rather stay indoors and wait for the lakes and streams to melt and go fly fishing when the ice is gone and the fish are hungry. ~Parnelli
