I didn't know that about ice fishing

Why you should stay off the bottom when ice fishing- Gord Pyzer
My rating: ***

So, it’s my first blog post on here and I couldn’t find any articles in the Outdoor Canada magazine about horseback riding, I thought I would write about ice fishing.

The article I chose is about mistakes people make about ice fishing. Some of these mistakes include putting the lure too close to the bottom of the lake and putting the bait right in front of the fish. Instead of putting your lure at the bottom, put it at least 18 inches off the bottom, but not directly at the bottom. Also, tease the fish a bit with the lure. If you make it too easy for the fish, then they’ll recognize that it’s a trap (fish are smarter than you think they are). If you follow these tips when ice fishing, you will get twice as many fish.

I chose this article because I wasn’t sure if we could write about horseback riding or not, and I noticed that Outdoor Canada had ice fishing. I thought that I could write about that because it was a little different. I learned that fish don’t necessarily hit the bottom of the lake during winter. Next time I go ice fishing, I will keep that in the back of my mind
