Ice Fishing Trip
Today at 11:00am we checked the weather which was -26 degrees Celsius, so we tried to rent a hut a Belwood Lake but they were all rented, so we dressed warmly and packed all our ice fishing supplies. Then we went to the tackle shop and bought some live minnows and drove to Belwood Lake, the ice was 26 cm thick so we paid and parked by the lake. Apparently nobody had caught anything, but we still went on the lake and drilled 4 holes. Then we started fishing, first I used a small weighted jig tipped with waxies for 40 minutes, starting at 125 cm deep and raising it 12.5 cm every 10 minutes. Then I used the same technique but with the jig tipped with live minnows instead of waxies for 40 minutes. Unfortunately while I was doing this I had helped my dad drill another hole and missed a bite. Everyone was starting to get inpatient so we all switched holes and techniques. Then it got even worse, my fishing rod broke, it got even colder and my brother had to go to the washroom, so we left. We went to Tim Hortons and had a snack and drove around Guelph Lake. A few people were ice fishing there but the rest of the lake looked to be never walked on, so we didn't fish there and went home. Hopefully next time we will have a better time, thank you mom and dad for making this possible.
