Something Different!

Well Lads, just a few pics here of my friend Stephen trying a different form of fishing in Finland, no 14 foot beachcasters here!
I won't be complaining about a cold January night on the beach in Ireland anymore, that would be mild compared to this!
What do ye think? Anyone else tried this when away?

Whats the fish in the last picture?

Looks like a roach..

yep, roach and perch in the pics

I'm shivering just looking at the pics, at least he is obviously well prepared for the elements. I see an ice auger there,any idea what thickness the ice is?

Presumably you can only catch a fish as big as your hole - so to speak!

Jeez not only is his hole small but so is his rod. :D The cold does terrible things to a man :roll:

Caz

ah in all honesty, its not the size of your rod or the size of the hole, its what you dangle below that matters :lol: :lol: :wink: :roll:

I've seen that surival expert off the telly do a similar type of fishing.... Ray Mears.....And I thought Bray Harbour was cold last Saturday night :shock: :shock: :shock:

i"d take the cold night in january....

Aren't you supposed to have a shed thing to sit in with a space heater and beer to go ice fishing. :?:

Man your doing it all wrong :D

ice was 50cm plus thick

Thank's thirty, never felt safe walking on frozen lakes, 50cm sounds OK. :)
