I don't know. The only ice fishing trip I went on was with my dad and one of his friends in December 1974 or 75. They augured their holes in the ice and started fishing while I was working on my hole in the ice. Before I could get my line in the water the wind came up, and my dad said "Time to go". We didn't have any shelter. So, I've never actually experienced ice fishing. I saw many shanties on the ice at Lake Sacajawea in North Dakota, along with the fisherman's vehicle. But, that's as close as I've gotten.

You'd love ice fishing here in Minnesota, they take it SERIOUS!

Imagine an ice house with; AM/FM/Cassette/CD and 8 speaker system, Color TV with VCR, a microwave, card table and chairs, windows with curtains, often a rug, and propane heaters, bunk beds and some are even fancy by comparison. They are scattered on every lake in the winter, and on some lakes there are so many that they set them up in 'streets and avenues' so they can get mail and have pizzas delivered.(seriously) Some guys live on the lake for months, fishing, fishing, fishing, to their hearts content.
