Bryan McFarlane drills a hole in the ice on Minnedosa Lake for a neighbour while ice fishing with his wife Val and friend Ray Morgan on the lake on a mild Thursday. The McFarlanes have had an ice-fishing shack on the lake every year for the last 15 years. They keep track of their days out and how many fish they catch. The most they’ve caught in one day this year is 12 fish, most of which they release back into the lake.

A trophy and fishing paraphernalia can be seen in Val and Bryan McFarlane’s ice-fishing shack on Minnedosa Lake. Each year, the McFarlanes have a competition among family members to see who can catch the most fish during the ice-fishing season. The winner gets their name on the trophy.
