Ice-fishing Friday: A snowy backcountry trout trip in the Haliburton Forest and Wild Life Reserve

Thanks to the Haliburton Forest team for hosting our stay, Mike Rae at the Truss Foodworks Cookhouse for the delicious lunch and to guide and outfitter Stephan Lukacic (above) for putting us on the fish. The Haliburton Forest and Wild Life Reserve is located off of Highway 118, about 30 minutes northwest of the town of Haliburton. For more information on the Forest go to www.haliburtonforest.com.
