What students wrote about ice fishing:
| At ice fishing I learned the difference between a hybrid and a king salmon. A king salmon has an adipose fin and a hybrid doesn't. |
| Ice fishing was fun and smelly because I finally caught one salmon! |
| I think that ice fishing was very enjoyable because my dad was there and I caught the most fish in the class. Altogether I caught 6 king salmon and my whole class caught 30 king salmon and 7 hybrid! When I held my fish up to have my picture taken, it felt slimy, and I got scales all over my gloves. |
| I learned how to ice fish. The best thing I liked about ice fishing is that we caught fish and we had fun out on the ice. I also caught my first fish for the very first time. |
| I really like ice fishing because it was actually my first time going fishing. When we arrived, I looked around and saw there were people catching the fish. I saw two boys trying to pull up their fish, so I went over next to them to fish. I baited my hook and one Fish and Game biologist came over to help put my hook in the little hole. I waited for a fish to try to eat my shrimp and then suddenly I felt something and I was extremely happy. I yelled, "I caught one!" Then a man came over to help me pull it up and this lady got my name and told me that I will get a certificate. Then I took a picture with my fish. It was slimy and it was trying to get back in the hole, but I didn't let it because it was my first time catching a fish. I was really proud of myself. |
| We went to Jewel Lake to go fishing. First we got into teams and then we got poles and bait to go ice fishing. I caught three fish: two kings and one hybrid. They were really slimy. I was glad when I caught my first fish in a hole in the ice. |
| We went on a field trip to Jewel Lake to go ice fishing. We used little poles and shrimp for bait. A lot of the students were first timers catching fish. It was really exciting. Sometimes the fish steals the shrimp and gets away. The whole class caught fish, even some teachers. You had to make sure you didn't step in a hole or else you would be cold. |
