Embracing the ‘old ways’ of ice fishing O

ne benefit of entering the so-called “golden age” is the heightened awareness of history. In school, I didn’t like history much, but today, I love it. Thinking of myself as a “club historian” has always been appealing, and these days, I especially love sharing with you, anecdotes drawn from my own pool of firsthand experiences. Sometimes, when I’m lucky though, I get to share stories from friends and family too, and that’s even more rewarding.

I’m not sure if I’ve said it out loud before, but in recent years, I’ve noticed a stark contrast in the culture of ice fishing.

When I started doing it, the overriding concern was whether the ice was thick enough to walk on.

Whenever it was 7 or 8 inches thick, popular lakes would begin filling up with anglers toting pails containing a few jiggle sticks, bobbers, an array of fishhooks and a hand auger or ice chisel.

The “hard core” anglers might have had a sled that contained a lantern and a few more goodies

but not much that wasn’t necessary.

Folks who wanted to fish in luxurious comfort constructed homemade fishing shelters out of plywood, or whatever else they had laying around.

Mine was a ¼-inch plywood, 4x8 foot shack that fit in the bed of a pickup truck. Equipped with skis, containing only a small wood stove, and a couple of stools, all we had to do was get it to the shoreline, and then we could still move it onto the ice by hand.

There are a variety of lakes in my region that

JOIN OUR TEAM

have plenty of ice for walking right now, but there aren’t many folks toting fish pails toward their respective “honey holes”. Instead, the modern ice anglers are waiting for enough ice to drive heavier trucks towing larger shelters. These days the term “portable” means driving ATVs, side-by-sides, or snowmobiles towing sleds filled with gear.

I like comfort as much as anybody, and I don’t have any problem ice fishing in a wheelhouse, or in a large rental shelter but I still have a soft spot for old technology.

It’s a sentimental connection, I know, but for me, the appreciation of catching a fish through the ice is elevated when I do a certain amount of suffering for my sport. Maybe it explains too why I credit

folks who embrace the “old ways” of ice fishing with a greater love for the sport.

Take our daughter Joelle and her fiancé Patrick for example, they have that love for fishing.

If there’s enough ice to walk on, and they have a free day, then they will be out there. They were this weekend, on a lake in the Grand Marais area, and it looks like they had a blast.

They found an area in 18 to 25 feet of water where they caught a dozen yellow perch, some of them in the 12-inch range, along with 6 northern pike. Most pike were smaller, but Patrick did have a larger one on the line that eventually cut itself free.

For them, the morning was better than the afternoon, on the ice by 9 a.m.,

they caught most of the fish between 10 and noon.

After a break for lunch, they returned to their spot, but the action was slower. Even when they were most active, the fish were not concentrated, showing up at random intervals on the graph.

When they did show up, they struck Rattl’n’ Flyer Spoons tipped with minnow heads. The orange

tiger pattern was Jo’s ticket for catching perch, the yellow-orange combo was Pat’s. They had tip ups set too, and caught 1 of the perch on them, but didn’t break down how many of the pike hit which presentation.

Joint Planning Board to dissolve Dec. 31 The partnership between Bemidji and Northern Township, known as the Greater Bemidji Area Joint Planning Board, will be dissolving at 11:59 p.m. on Dec. 31, with all planning and zoning requests after that time going to the local government where the property is located for service.

The JPB staff will become the new Planning and Zoning Department for the city of Bemidji and will continue to be located in Bemidji City Hall. Northern Township Planning and Zoning will be located at the town hall, at 445 Town Hall Road Northwest, Bemidji.

With the transition, the JPB website will be retired after all of the documents have been archived into the city files, sometime in 2024 and new webpage for the city’s Planning and Zoning Department will be

created.

Important dates to keep in mind as these changes unfold are as follows: • Northern Township: The last day to accept and process applications will be Friday, Dec. 29, with a deadline of 4:30 p.m. Any Northern Township applications applied for after Dec. 29 will be canceled and the applicant will be notified to reach out to Northern Township.

• Northern Township: The township will receive all historical and current applications by 4:30 p.m. on Monday, Jan. 15.

• Bemidji: All city of Bemidji applications will be processed accordingly, apply for city of Bemidji applications on the city

of Bemidji application page.

• Bemidji: The city of Bemidji’s planning case timelines have been slightly modified for the new year, see the city’s planning and zoning webpage for deadline and meeting dates.

WELCOME

“Staff at the JPB want to thank all the citizens of both Northern Township and the city of Bemidji for the 16 years of collaboration,” JPB staff said in a release,” both city and township staff look forward to working with members of the public on their future projects in the new year.”
