Dave Stuckert, Ice Fisherman

Ice fisherman dot the local reservoirs in and near Somers, NY. Local contractor Dave Stuckert was featured in the Sunday New York Times article, In the Suburbs, When the Cold Is Biting, and So Are the Fish.
Mr. Stuckert had one of the most luxurious setups, resembling a tailgate party on ice. He pulled from a bottle of homemade wine and placed venison steaks, marinated in peppers and garlic, on a barbecue set atop the ice. A black sled tipped sideways kept the grill shielded from the wind as his son, Dave Stewart Stuckert, caught dinner — a flopping two-pound brown trout that the family’s two Chesapeake Bay retrievers, named Gunner and Toby, licked as it rose from the frigid water.
