The white dots seem to form some kind on pattern along the length of the lines - what causes this?

These bright freckles are real. They are specular reflections from the parts of the ice-covered surface that has just the right angular position towards the sun and our camera. Something like that shimmer you see on the snow-covered field at sunny day. But instead of snowflakes here we have larger surface patches.
