Families from all over were setting up at midnight and each person could have up to 8 traps set. Judging was done by fish length around 3PM. I got to hang out with a few experts and take part in the activities. It was great weather, around 25 degrees with a bright sun coming down.<\/p>\n<p>This was also the first time I\u2019ve ever stood on a frozen lake or driven on one. I had a lot of fun driving my VW Golf on the snow &amp; ice. I still can\u2019t believe the car didn\u2019t fall into the water. I took a few iPhone photos to share here.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View 'Ice Fishing Lake Fairlee VT' on Flickr.com\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/12436623194\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: block;
