After the lakes freeze solid for the winter, it’s time to break out your tip-ups and go fishing! You’ll see ice shanties pop up all over on the Washburn County lakes during the winter months. If you’re new to ice fishing, there are plenty of outdoor stores who can get you set up with equipment to hit the ice. Whether you're looking to catch a trophy fish or just some tasty panfish to fry up for your evening meal, you will have some great luck when you fish the area lakes.
