It's a good time to make a couple fish structure boxes too [
].
we used to (back in the day ) get some orange crates and nail them together and load one of the crates with rocks or bricks . Then we would set them out on the ice and when the spring thaw would come they would drop to the bottom right where we put them .
You could always hit those spots in the summer and catch a few big guys hiding in those fish houses .
It's a great way to put in a sandy bottom in the pond for the kids to swim around , dump the sand on the ice , spread it around and let the sun do the rest of the work .
