Minnesota Winter Day Trip Idea! ๐ฃ ๐ง We had the BEST time ice fishing on๐Lake Minnetonka - here are my tips to make it a successful day! @takemefishing (ad) ๐ Buy a fishing license! Required for anyone over 16 in Minnesota (check your state for requirements) ๐ Find spots to ice fish at takemefishing.org - their interactive map also has recent reviews! ๐ Rent a heated house! Winters in Minnesota can be BRUTALLY cold so sitting โindoorsโ while on the frozen lake is a huge perk. We had a great experience with @icefishingwarriors ๐ Make sure the ice is at 12-15โ thick before driving on it for a medium sized vehicle; or go out with a guide! Avoid driving near bridges and always adhere to signs ๐ Go EARLY in the morning when fish are more active. We went during the day and while we had nibbles, we werenโt quick enough to pull them up. Next time! ๐ To drill a hole, use an auger For more tips on ice fishing, check out @takemefishing
