Ice Fishing in Manitoba A Practical Guide From An Expert
Uncle Bill delivers practical tips for open water through ice fishing in Manitoba. He compares punching holes with chisels or needle bars to using ice augers, notes hole size decisions, equipment costs, and how to set up shacks for comfort. He suggests bait choices, lure depth, and techniques for pike, walleye, and trout, mentioning key locations like Winnipeg River, Whiteshell lakes, Persse Lake Roblin, William Lake Turtle Mountains, Neepawa Reservoirs, Sandy Lake, and Fishing Lake. He also warns about no winter fishing in Riding Mountain National Park and closes with a cautionary tale about a hunter shooting a magpie on a cow.
