We love fishing with Grandpa (Opa)! Add in cie and snow and it is even more fun, OK nothing beats the boat rides but if you ask the kids its up there.
In the pictures we are in the middle of the lake fishing (the water is about 20 ft deep here) the ice is 8-10 inches thick that we are standing on and the ice hole kept freezing over with the sheet of ice every 20-30 min. The kids loved using the ladle to scoop the ice out to keep the lines clear or clear the new holes after Daddy or Grandpa Hand Drilled them.
Finally you can't have an ice fishing day without sled rides and sled skating. The boys would drag each other around on the sled while they waited for a flag to raise for fishing and convinced daddy to run a crossed the ice dragging them. They finished the trip being dragged in with the gear on the sleds. "it's too far to walk back" is how E put it (see above picture of him crawling)
