Dave Flynn of Lyman, bottom right, and several of his friends stretch out the ice-fishing season on Range Pond in Poland on Tuesday afternoon. “It’s better than sitting on the couch and is a whole lot of fun, especially when they are biting,” Flynn said. With about 18 inches of ice left, Range Pond is one of the few safe places left in the area to fish. (Russ Dillingham/Sun Journal)
