...ice fishing at Peterson Lake

Henry, John, and Charlie pose on the ice of Peterson Lake.
Charlie's "automatic turning bungee cord sausage cooker." It impresses many people. The sausages are in front of the heater above the paper towels.

Many of my friends like to conjure up unique methods of cooking when they go ice fishing. I was lucky enough to make a trip with several friends today and I got a good look at some of the very clever cooking systems. Charlie has rigged several bungee cords from the ceiling of his ice fishing tent to which he attaches a long fork so he can cook sausages using his Mr. Buddy heater. It is ingenious and it works! We all enjoyed some very tasty sausages as we fished through holes in the ice.
We also caught some trout while we were there and basically enjoyed a pleasant afternoon in the outdoors. It made me wish every day was Saturday because it is fun to do some cooking with the Mr. Buddy heater while...ice fishing at Peterson lake..
