We got to test out Molly's snow gear in full force - snowpant bibs, double layer coat, mittens, superman hat, and of course, moonboots. Her and Sara came fishing starting about 11 and did just fine for the hour and a half they were there. Her cheeks were a little chilled but she wasn't complaining and seemed to be having fun. She got to fish all by herself (with dad closeby)
got pulled in the sled by everybody, and had tons o fun with Jon (the skeptic).
Keith came and got a squirmy one.
And Dave who previously had only caught a bluegill that I would categorize as "fun size" was able to snag a couple 9 inchers.
Ice was about 7" thick and it was a new record for early ice fishing for me. In the past I have never gone before Christmas. We came back that afternoon and had a fish fry with Keith and nobody got sick. There will be many more ice fishing excursions and this was a good start!

We love fishing, but not when you can walk on the water. Molly is way more of a trooper then me. Where you guys at Red Fish?
Ryanna, Our experience with ice fisherhumans is that it is for the few and the proud. You should try it sometime.. it's warmer than you think! And who or what is this red fish of which you speak?
You will have to take Travis with you next time. On the bright side, our bathrooms are clean. :)
