| Re: Got out Sat. for a few hours. Actually I've fished in much colder. -20 to -30 deg C. One time we had to light a fire under the vans oil pan to thin the oil before the engine would turn over. When it gets that cold or when its breezy you want a good shelter with a heater. Fish though holes in the floor.  and yes a bit of this too.When it is really cold the ice sometimes cracks as it expands. This is a loud noise you can here coming from km's away.
