The ice is forming quickly on lakes and ice anglers everywhere are looking to get out. Now is a good time for an ice safety primer, whether you're fishing, walking on it, or skating on it. I share my top tips for keeping you safe on the ice this winter.

Finding firewood takes some labour, but it makes for a rewarding day and heat all winter. Also, Christmas Markets are fun!

No matter how long I live in Ontario, I'll never stop being surprised by the swings in the weather. This weekend was one of those swings. Also, my intro to Ayam Cemanis - crazy, all black chickens.

Winter is here, winter chores have started, and I'm burning pinecones on the woodstove. Also, some considerations on where to fish at this time of the year (hint: as far away from others as possible).
