Ness' Outpost

Jason organized another ice fishing trip with the guys at work and guests. It might be just a bunch of guys at work going ice fishing but our business definitely doesn’t have anything to do with it because of liability, people having fun, team building, etc.

We did catch some fish! Of course bacon and eggs were made up in our mansion of a hut that Tim Hales (out of Beaverton) provided. Tip: Bacon is the easiest way to pack “oil” for frying up fish.

We were on about 8 inches of ice out where the huts were placed so the big ice machines couldn’t come out to get us. We were snowmobiled out on a hardtail sled. Nothing between you and the ice but a small piece of foam on a wooden bench. ;)

It was a bit of a slow day, we could see the bottom and a white fish was making fun of us the whole time swiming around, and between our lures. Tony pulled in the big fish of the day and won the trophy this year. A 12″ perch.

I’d do it again in a heartbeat if it wasn’t so warm down here in Southern Ontario.
