When you think of ice fishing, what comes to mind might be a portrait of solitude: a lone guy out on the middle of a frozen lake, contemplating life. But our guest says that ice fishing, while certainly a way to connect with yourself and with nature, can be social and collaborative. She has been a member of the Wisconsin Women Fish club for over a decade, and has been fishing and ice fishing since childhood. We’ll talk all things ice fishing with her for this Wisconsin Weekend.
