DULUTH, MN. (Northern News Now) - An ice fishing contest put on by The United Northern Sportsmen (UNS) has been postponed due to the cold weather.
The event was originally supposed to be held Sunday, January 30.
However, falling temperatures and sub-zero wind chills pushed organizers to reschedule the contest for Sunday, February 19.
