Fish-O-Ree


 March 11, 1968  Appleton Post-Crescent
I wasn't a Boy Scout for very long but I'm pretty sure I was here with my scout troop that day!  Ice fishing was new to me as a kid but I became well acquainted that day with whatever warmth I could garner from the ice shanty and the intracacies of using red salmon eggs as bait.  And this came, after a prior weekend of hiking across the frozen surface of Lake Winnebago from the end of Nicolet Boulevard to the other side of the lake.  Needless to say, I was so happy to see Spring arrive that year!
