Original Toronto Star caption: Angling through the ice. Ice fishing has finally started near Keswick; where the ice on Lake Simcoe is eight inches thick. K. Matys of Toronto takes his ice auger and other gear out on a little sled and enjoys the quiet and the frest air regardless of whether he catches any fish. He has reeled in as many as 100 in one day.
