1/9/2017 3:05:00 PMSevere cold kept all but the hardiest (most foolish?) of anglers off the ice this past week. Nighttime lows in the minus teens to twenties hurt participation for now.

1/8/2017 3:20:00 PMBy John Luthens Native Americans burned ceremonial fires, dancing in forgotten places to dispel the past and welcome in the future. Many of Finnish descent prefer to sit in a wood burning smoke sauna, sweating the demons out and letting them curl into the wind. Call it superstition, call it mumbo jumbo, but I have come to believe there are healing...

1/3/2017 1:15:00 PMIce conditions in central Wisconsin are about as perfect as one could want. Contrary to popular belief the rain last weekend did more good for ice fishing than bad. The rain knocked down the snow and slush on top of the ice allowing it to freeze solidly the following couple of days. We now have an average of 4 to 8 inches of good solid ...

The recent snow and cold set the mood for winter recreation, ...

By late morning anglers were finding ...
