A Bit Of A Different View
The image that comes to mind when fishing is brought up is anglers bobbing on the waves on a summer morning with their lines cast out into the flowing waters. However, during the winter months, this vision shifts to a much different view. When Moose lake freezes over, anglers will head out onto the ice with their gear in tow, bore a hole through the ice until they reach the water, and lower their lines through the freshly cut ice. Setting it apart from typical, warm-weather fishing, ice fishing takes a much different technique to catch a fish through a hole in the ice than what you would typically do out on open water. 
There is a different finesse on the line as well as different bait and gear. Therefore, for many ice fishing is a new challenge that you can only get for a portion of the year. Many fishers can’t wait to head out on the ice the first day that the ice is thick enough to put their skills to the test.
