A man had to be rescued Monday afternoon after falling through the ice in Goose Bay.

 Alexandria Bay Fire Chief David Van Brocklin said the man had been fishing alone on the ice and was heading back to shore when the ice gave way.

 He said the angler was about 20 yards from shore and was weighed down by his clothing.

 Van Brocklin said state Park Police were the first on the scene and threw the man a rope to pull him to safety.

 The man was taken into a nearby home to warm up and did not require medical attention.

 Van Brocklin said the man had been in the water for about 20 minutes.

 He urged people to stay off the ice now that we're seeing warmer temperatures

I avoided going in this year. Despite the bets placed by my ignorant friends and family.  ::)
I'm sticking a fork in the season before the ice picks get used.
Good luck and be safe to anyone that can get out.
Til next season fellas...

The angle of the dangle is directly proportionate to the heat of the beat.

Wow I cant believe a few more fish is worth the risk of going in at this point. Not worth risking your life, or the lives of rescuers coming to save somebodies dumb a** . Even my 14 yr old son has more common sense!
