I have done my own thing for 40 years. Walk drill stand on ice. A floater suit will keep you warm standing on ice along with 100 below boots ,head gear. The truth about ice fishing is -25 The fishing sucks unless it's been -25 for a week or so. I also did the big league heart surgery and have sold all walk out ,drill holes. i've always rented huts every now and then. It's nothing like the do it yourself thing . Youcan spend 20k in a heart beat on do it yourself so 20,0000 / 125 per day (gas money to get to Lake) hut rental looks cheat. And the best thing if fishing sucks you just wave the white flag buddy comes takes you off lake. You should never judge fishing on cost, judge on smiles only.

I would defiantly go out with an operator that rented day huts, the first few times. This will/should give you enough of a feeling as to whether you actually like Ice fishing? An outfitter will supply you with transportation, bait, and a heated shelter. They upon request (if not already there) will drill holes outside the hut. You'll have the choice of fishing inside the hut or outside; depending on your preference; definitely try both. At the end of the day, there are no worries the hut operator will come and collect you and take you to shore. Yeah, it's a few bucks to rent a day hut, but I feel that for an inexperienced ice fisher, it's money well spent. Dan.

Got this from Friends who love Vintage Toronto site I belong to. They say it’s 1959. The car seems familiar.

Nope, but I did get a call that a parcel that I had ordered containing illegal substance was being held at customs and if I didn’t call them they would come and arrest me. So far they have not showed up. What a bunch of crap. Get a job and make a living like I did. I have their number and may call them back and offer duct cleaning on their mud hut and offer cattle care and spear sharpening.
