Ice fishing with the kids...

Took the kids ice fishing this weekend. I haven't done it myself for a couple years. I t was the first time kids got to go. Some long time friends invited us up to their place. Well we hit the lake the kids thought it was pretty cool driving on the lake. Of course the boy pointed out the fact that you could not do this in the summer. Curiously I asked him "why?" His response "Come on dad this is simple, there's no ice in the summer!" I was kind of hoping for some kind of a more scientific answer but I guess I'll have to live the answer.

So we get to the fish house. One grown up gets the kids going. We aren't even there five minutes and a rotten little kid is already pulling up a fish. I think all the kids at one point in time had a chance at bringing a fish up through the hole. It was definitely a fun evening. The final score ended up kids with seven keepers and adults with the big old goose egg.
