Tales from the Harborcams - Sometimes ice fishing can be hard work



Over several hours this morning, these guys worked like crazy to get a little fishing in -- hopefully, they caught something.

  1. Good grief! At least they had ATVs and sleds. Fun to watch though. Many thanks Dennis.

  3. They kept me entertained most of the day yesterday. I didn't get much work done. They were so much fun to watch wondering what would they think of next in order to get that ATV & 2 wheel trailer through that snow pile and onto the ice.
    Minnesota...the "Never Give Up State"? Or the "Git 'er Done State"?

  4. They took enough gear out (several trips) to spend the night out there. And sure enough their trucks & the trailer are still parked in the same spot this morning. -10 degrees? How did they stay warm all night?

  8. Could it be???
    Could it be the same guys who worked so hard to get their boat through the ice last year?

  9. These guys have been out there for 2 1/2 days should the authorities be checking on them? Just asking. Seems strange!

  10. If these gents worked this hard at their actual jobs, they could retire early!!

  11. Might be a dumb question but I have to ask. Is the ice not that thick there to drive on with trucks or are they not allowed too?

    1. Good question. The ice thickness changes rapidly, so, I guess nobody want to be the guinea pig.

  12. I have not experienced the snow weather till now. Having snow everywhere is kind of great weather and these images are really great. Thinking of getting the richmond snow removal as, they are having the proper equipment.
