In this heartfelt episode of Terrible at Fishing on Cold Country Radio, host Michael Rafino brings us the latest fishing updates from Klamath Falls, shares personal health challenges, and gears up for an exciting weekend of ice fishing and community events.

Michael dives into detailed fishing reports, highlighting prime ice fishing spots like Gerber Lake, Fish Lake, and Lake of the Woods, offering tips on catching bass, panfish, and even regulated tiger trout. He shares his personal struggles with RSV and frostbite, yet remains committed to the upcoming Ice Fishing Derby at Lake of the Woods.
