“I got a nibble here guys…!”

icefishcarto.jpg A lack of ice around around a northern angler cost him his life. His fishing buddies tried to rescue him but were unsuccessful.

His last word’s were, “I think I have a nibble here!”. Tragedy struck as the angler began to reel in his catch. Video footage was shot of the event as his friends were anticipating a great family home video shot. The angler’s friends were not even able to tell him to keep is rod tip up.
