Ice Fishing

// March 23rd, 2010 // Hecla/Grindstone Provincial Park, Interlake, Lake Winnipeg, Manitoba Tourist Destination, Scenic, Winter

Manitobans are a hearty bunch and continue to fish right through the winter on our frozen lakes and rivers. Small communities pop up on the Red River in the Lockport and Selkirk areas and the fishing shacks usually have heaters or small wood stoves inside keeping the fishers toasty warm even on bitter winter days.  Todays photos are from the Hecla Village area where a couple of gentlemen were enjoying a beautiful warm and sunny winter day ice fishing.

Two fishing shacks that have been pulled off the ice.

A shack and augers in the distance on Lake Winnipeg at Hecla.

Enjoy!
