Fundamentals Of Fishing In A Custom Ice Fishing House

By Sally Delacruz


Winter is not the favorite season of most people. Being warm bloodied animals, most individuals would rather stay shrouded inside their homes and drink a steaming mug of coffee or a calming cup of tea. They see winter like most animals do, a time for hibernation.

Due to this, most people are missing out on the best winter activities. There are loads of recreational pastimes one must try when he or she has overcome the cold and the chills. For starters, one can get a dose of exhilaration when you come skating down icy slopes. If you want to see the beauty of nature first hand, you can strap on your snowshoes an go for a walk in winter wonderland. Those who love food and fun in one setting, then fishing in a custom ice fishing house is definitely one to try.

Ice fishing is basically just the act of catching fish, as you usually do with a line and a hook. The only thing is, it is done in cold weather when the lakes and other bodies of water are frozen solid. This activity is as basic as digging a hole in the ice, placing a bait, and waiting for a catch.

This type tends to be more sociable than the one done in warmer weather. Due to the cold emanating from the ice, fishers tend to gather and huddle for body heat. The wait time that is allotted while waiting for a catch is utilized for small talk. It also gives others an opportunity to bond with other fishers especially when the activity involves putting up of tents that are a bit closer than usual, because participants are trying to conserve the heat. This closeness provides an avenue for socialization.

Aside from gaining new friends, this is one way to spend winter break without hurting your budget. This is one recreational activity that will not allow you to spend too much than your means. You do not have to wear any special garb. Just remember to wear layered clothing to protect yourself from frostbite. You do not have to buy special tools, too.

What is more, this is an activity that people can enjoy whether you are doing it alone or in a group. You can bring along friends and family members who are comfortable with the cold. After a really good day out with special people, you can cook what you have caught and prepare it for a special dinner.

The secret in this recreational interest is to become comfortable. It is hard to have fun when your teeth are chattering and your hands are shaking from the cold. Wear clothes in layers from a wool sweater, topped with a jacket or coat, then finished off with a vest or windbreaker. Wear insulated pants and pac boots to trap in body heat.

Do not forget to take out all the necessary equipment. You do not have to bring anything that is too complex, really. All you will ever need is an auger or a chisel to make the hole, bait, and rods. Do not forget to bring that thermos full of coffee or hot chocolate, either.

Most people now use fishing houses. They are made to protect fishers from the harsh elements outside. These are built just like a house, only they have holes oh the floor where the line goes into. With use of these movable shelters, you can have a warmer experience. They are for sale at most sports shops and some can even be rented out if you do not have enough to purchase one.
