Bob Dehetre, 86, of Lewiston keeps an eye on his ice fishing trap Thursday on Lower Range Pond in Poland. He said he never goes ice fishing without his bright orange pants. “My family and people that know me know what I wear. You never know what might happen out here and this way they can always see me.” As far as the fishing, Dehetre said the season has been slow. “The ice came in late, and nobody has had much luck so far,” the Edward Little High School graduate said. “Last year was a good year so we will keep trying.” Daryn Slover/Sun Journal
