Favorite Fish House Food


Recommended Posts

I just got my first wheel house for ice fishing. My wife, two dogs, and I just did an over-nighter in it and we loved the time together. If you can spend a 24 hour period together, not be more than six feet apart at any given time, and come out of it smiling, it must be true love. We are planning to do at least one more outing before we park it.

Ok, so on to the food part, what is your favorite fish house food?

Venison steak in a pan with garlic, onion, salt, pepper and lots of butter. with canned sliced potatoes from the store in a pan with butter and Lawry's salt cooked until crispy and green beans. That's my favorite.

You guys are making me hungry. We can have brats the first night, grilled fish for breakfast, and Venison for lunch. I am a self proclaimed old cast iron pan freak and the fried Venison and fixings gives me an excuse to bring one out the fish house.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Going out in the wheelhouse this weekend for one more overnight, on the menu is a small venison roast, cooked on the stove in a big skillet with tight fitting lid with 2-3 onions, couple carrots, and as many potatoes as I can fit in. The leftover potatoes will be saved for breakfast, warmed up, and throw some eggs on them. Along with coffee and cookies.

Anything you can cook on the stove at home you can cook in the fishhouse, either from scratch or warmed up. Last time out I did grilled cheese sandwiches and soup.

Have fun!!!

Curious how big your house is to also accommodate two dogs??

The fish house is 7 x 12. She is an oldy but a goody. The dogs love summer fishing and it did not take them long to figure out what this winter fishing thing is all about. One is an ankle biter and the other is what pheasants dream about when they have nightmares.

Congratulations Neighbor!

I know a place where you can pick up some pretty good tri-tip steaks! grin

These steaks are great! I have had them on the grill, broiled in cast iron, and we just finished doing one in the slow cooker. We are going the shred it and put it on a Kaiser Roll. Should be awesome.

    • Sorry to hear that Duff. Will give my GSP's an extra scratch behind the ear for you guys today
    • Aw, man, sorry to hear that.  Shed some tears and remember her well.  They all take a piece of our hearts with them; some more than others.
    • yes sorry for your loss..  our dogs are always special...
    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
