Building Your Own House

Many ice fishers use houses they built from written plans to help them stay comfortable in cold weather.

These shelters can be made from metal, wood, nylon, or plastic.

Portable ice houses are made of nylon or polyethylene.

These strong, lightweight materials are resistant to wind and water.

Ice fishers can fold up portable ice houses to move them easily.

These houses usually fit no more than two people.

Some portable ice houses have a plastic or wooden floor and a metal frame. The floors have holes to fit over the holes in the ice.

Ice Fishing Quick Facts: Some ice fishers their ice houses as comfortable as their home.

They might bring a stereo, TV, or DVD player with them on ice.

Ice fishers stay comfortable in an ice house even on the coldest winter day.

Some ice fishers use permanent ice houses. They use trailers to haul these houses onto the ice. Permanent ice houses are made of metal or wood. Some are big enough to fit more than six people.

Portable heaters warm the inside of the ice houses. Some permanent ice houses have built-in stoves. Outdoor ice fishers might have small heaters to keep their hands and feet warm. The heaters and stoves are powered by gas or propane.
