You might have better luck on one of the angling newsgroups. alt.fishing,
alt.flyfishing, can.rec.fishing, rec.outdoors.fishing etc.

OK, thanks for the 'leads'. I don't 'prowl' newsgroups very much.

Ice fishing? Up here

Where's "up here"? I'm pretty far "up" myself: Winnipeg

that's an excuse for freezing your tail off while you
consume far too much alcohol! Plus, after you go through all the work of
drilling a few holes, do you really want to know that there aren't any fish
down there anyway? Heh, heh!

I've heard that it's possible to 'fishfind' through the ice with the
right transducer and a gel-pac (unfrozen ;-)
