Ice Fishing
Some people think of fishing as an activity for a lazy summer day, but, when it comes to ice fishing, frigid winter weather is a prerequisite. This handy guide introduces young readers to the basics of ice fishing. It discusses how to drill ice-fishing holes and use various ice-fishing gear, such as tip-ups. It also supplies a brief history of ice fishing and discusses recent advances, such as the use of sonar to find fish under the ice.

Book Review: Ice Fishing"The simple, optimistic text gets through the dull-but-important stuff quickly: the need for a fishing license and the three different kinds of ice fishing (rod, tip-up flags, and, believe it or not, spear). This is great for whetting interest, although, obviously, real-life tutelage is necessary."
