Every year Lorraine County Metro Parks has a winter days festival. I have been blessed to be a part of it with nice ice fishing clinic...usually on ice:) Wasn't in the cards for us this time around but honestly the kids had so much fun running in and out of our Eskimo shanties...see how the different Vexilar sonars worked and getting tons of free ice fishing swag from our generous sponsors ...many of them probably forgot about the ice:)   For the video of this event and more like it check out www.iceprofromohio.com and to see what our friends over at Fish Addictions TV are up to check out www.fishaddictions.com   Sit back, relax, grab a cup of Jo, and give a listen to what this great event is all about!

Whether it was the TruMoo flowing or the 40x140 foot tent on ice, the negative 20 degrees was not enough to stop 200+ kids and their parents from coming out to enjoy Fish Addictions 2016 Kids Clinic on Ice. With hundreds of giveaways on hand, hot dogs, coloring stations, to live release tanks displayed on 40 inch TV's, this event was truly a memorable one. On this episode we interview Mike Olson, founder of Fish Addictions, on the way to go set up the event. I was emceeing the event and found the details of Mike's event to be very exciting.
