Each starts with the same base ingredient of four, six-ounce salmon fillets, but the addition of a few fairly standard flavourings takes the salmon in three entirely different directions: spicy and sweet with mustard and maple syrup; an homage to a Bloody Mary by using vodka and tomato juice; and a recipe with Asian flair that uses sweet chili sauce. For a switch, substitute the vodka for an aromatic gin, chef Michael Smith suggests. 4 salmon fillets, about 6 ounces each salt and freshly ground pepper 2 cups tomato juice 1/2 cup vodka 1 tablespoon horseradish 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce zest and juice of 1 lemon a splash or two of olive oil 2 stalks celery, chopped Season the salmon fillets with lots of salt and pepper.

Small silver spoons like the Williams Ice Jig, and the Northlands Eye-Dropper work well. Small jigs with Berkley one-inch power tubes or two-inch power grubs are also excellent producers. We also had excellent success tipping a one-quarter-ounce jig with a Berkley two-inch Realistix Minnow in chartreuse and glow. A small jigging Rapala can also be deadly along with Cicada's. Avid angler Darrin Bohonis likes to use a Rattle Snakie spoon and friend Steven Wintemute has had tremendous success using the Lindy darter ice jig.
Situated in an ice tent on Shoal Lake in Ontario, I could watch the underwater world unfold below me on my Humminbird Ice 55 flasher. As I bent over the flasher I could see a fish streaking to my lure, a blur of blue on my five-colour display. As soon as the two inters...

Three years after many fish died from winter kill, stocks have recovered to the point that local anglers can start to haul in decent catches of walleye and perch, said. From Feb. 19-21, all anglers can legally fish without a licence in Manitoba, except in national parks, as part of a Winter Family Fishing Weekend promotion permitted by the provincial government.

I should have expected as much. The cheek of any fish will never disappoint, whether it's a salmon collar served up in a sushi joint, a halibut cheek poached in some overly expensive restaurant or the pickerel cheeks many Manitobans fry up at home.
Fish cheeks are prized because they're meaty and flavourful, thanks to the nearby presence of skin, bone and cartilage. Veal and beef cheeks are also excellent, but good luck finding them at a butcher shop or grocery store.
The classic preparation for these boneless nuggets of flesh is very similar to the treatment of the grouper jaw in Florida: Give them a light dredging in flour and spices, then fry them very briefly. I like to add a coating of egg as a binding agent, although some old-timers will insist that's sacrilege.
