To ice fish, start by using the Hand Auger to cut a hole in the ice.

Be careful - if you get too close to the edge of the ice, you could fall in. The ice gets thinner as you go further out. Slow and steady is the way. Cutting holes in the ice also reduces the integrity of the ice.

Factors affecting fishing:
Noteimported
1. Dawn comes late, around 9:00am, this far north in the Canadian Shield. Dusk is early: about 7:00 pm. Fish are crepuscular and will be most active during these periods.

2. They will be even more active during periods of broad sunlight. On a cloudy day they will lie dormant and not jump at bait so quickly.

3. Larger and more rare fish will be found in deeper waters. Only small Trout and White Fish swim close to the shore.
