Kramfors Fisherman

We were in Kramfors again today, leaving the car at the workshop to get the leaky windscreen washers fixed.  While that was happening we went for a walk and a quick trip round the shops.  We feel very lucky to be living somewhere where we still can go out, but there are few people around and the shops and cafes are very empty. We ended up at a small cafe where we could sit out in the sun and enjoy our coffee. There were only three other customers so it felt fairly safe.
After we picked up the car we met Karin at a charity shop and Jan and her did some searching for bargains while I checked out the car repair and found the leak was still leaking!!
After that depressing discovery we took another walk along the edge of a large frozen lake. The sun shone down and reflected up off the ice so it felt very warm as we walked.  This guy was fishing through the ice. He had a broad sledge which held his equipment, including a small stool to sit on. The drill makes the hole in the ice and the line drops through the hole from the short rod he is holding. He jiggles the rod/line up and down to attract the fish, but to be honest I've never seen an ice fishermen with more than 3 fish, so he probably won't be filling the sledge with dead fish!
The car is now booked in for a new attempt to fix the leak next Tuesday.
The extra picture shows the answer to yesterday's puzzle!
