Early Bird Fishing: Ice Fishing Safety Concerns

Two adults and two kids walks toward a red fish house on a frozen lake

Early Bird Fishing Guide Jeff Sundin joins Heidi Holtan and John Bauer for the Christmas Eve Thursday Morning Show.  They talk about safety concerns when ice fishing.  Jeff tells us how he had to change his fishing plans for the week because of the weather.  He reminds us that the strong winds during a snowstorm can move the ice and snow changing the route you took to get on the lake and possibly causing you to be stranded from shore.

Jeff reports moderately good fishing on area lakes near Bemidji and Grand Rapids with lots of walleye action at Lake of the Woods but not many at the good eating size.  For more on ice fishing go to jeffsundin.com
