NEW...Fall Fishing Heating Up
 
Kevin Dahlke

Fall is definitely in the air and also when one looks out across the horizon, the changing of leaves and the brilliant colors reminds us that the cold months are ahead. But we don’t look at that right now and try and enjoy what we have today as those days will be long an we can’t wait for spring to get here.

Weekly Fishing Tip

Check your Ice fishing Line


Ice season has been going for a while now here in New England and many are catching some very nice fish. But there are also some nice ones being lost as well. One cause for these lost fish may be line damage from rubbing on the bottom of our ice holes. The bottom of the ice holes has a sharp edge that wears heavily on the line especially when fighting a fish. It would be good practice to start routinely check your line for nicks and abrasions especially the few feet above the hook. By doing this check every now and then, this may put a few more fish on the ice for you.

  


Weekly OutDoors Kids Corner
 
Watch for Holes

The ice season is in full swing and many fishers bring children with them out on the ice for a day of fishing. There is something that we may not realize with the holes that we drill into the ice for our fishing lines. Many fishers are drilling 8 to 10 inch holes and these can become traps for the children that we bring along. If the holes are not mark, covered by slush or just not visible, children and as well as adults can step into these holes and many things can happen at that point. The boot fills with icy cold water ending a day of fishing, loss of the boot under the ice, broken bones with forward body movement as well and pulled muscles from an abrupt altering body action. Nobody wants to have an accident on the ice and ruin the day, but watching and remembering where these holes are is fairly important in keeping everyone safe to enjoy a great day on the ice.
