ice fisherman

Frozen lake angler

An ice fisherman is someone who fishes through holes cut in frozen lakes or rivers.

The practice requires specialized gear—augers to drill through ice, portable shelters, and short rods suited to fishing through small openings.

The ice fishermen had been out on the lake since dawn.
