ice fishing

    I wouldn’t say I was “nervous” I was more excited to go out on the ice again. It reminds me of when I lived in Point Hope because I used to go out on the ice to go hunting for belugas, seals, walrus and humpback whales. We never really did any ice fishing during the winter because all the sea animals would eat most of them and it was rare to catch a lot of fish, so we did most of our fishing in the summer. I definitely had fun on the ice, trying out ice fishing for the first time was an experience. It was really exciting the second time we went because just having adrenaline and trying to patiently wait for a tug on the hook. I’m pretty sure I caught 14 of the pike but they were really small, I didn't get any big ones, Sheridan caught most of the big/huge ones. There was a point where I was kind of competing with Calista to see how much we can catch, for a while we were tied from 1-12 and after Calista got way ahead of me by like 8 more and after that I only caught 2 more.
