The day we left, the weather was a little iffy. It was snowing a bit here in the valley, and the forecast was calling for 12"-18" in the mountains where we were going. Everything was clear and fine until about 3 miles from where we were stopping. This is what it looked like when we arrived:
We spent the next couple days fishing. I didn't catch much beyond a dozen yellow perch and a baby splake trout (leatherman used for scale among other things):
If you've never been ice fishing before, here's a panorama give you a sense of the solidarity:
On a side note, I don't know if I'll be continuing the Picture a Day thing. It's surprisingly time consuming to not only take the picture (which isn't that much time), but posting it and everything that goes along with that. I will however turn it into more of featured photo thing and would still like to make it a frequently update thing. Maybe once a week or something.
