THREE WINTER RULES

Cold logic. Warm gloves.

01

Count the ring

Each number counts fish in every adjacent sector, including diagonals.

02

Respect cracks

Thin ice gives no clue and removes one heat unit. Two mistakes can end a whiteout run.

03

Scan once

Thermal equipment highlights the row containing the most remaining bass.

TACTICAL ICE GRID

Read what’s below.

A number shows how many bass occupy the eight neighboring sectors. Empty holes automatically clear nearby safe ice.

FIELD PROCEDURE 01

Numbers beneath the snow.

WINTER LOG / ENTRY 44

Station Twelve studies how bass gather beneath pressure ridges. The crew has one thermal battery, a stubborn auger and just enough daylight to turn scattered clues into a complete map.
