Research from the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources indicates that ice fishing season is three weeks shorter on average than it was in the 1970’s.
Increasing temperatures = less ice on lakes = shorter ice fishing season.
If climate change is impacting Wisconsin, it’s already impacting Canada.
In other places it shows more during the summer, in the North it shows more during the winter. can’t remember the last time we had a proper one here, without several melting and re-freezing phases.

Oh sure, I phrased it a little badly.
