We fished 6'' ice all day today and the fella i fished with had his little girl,she is 5 i think, and caught her first gamefish today,a 15'' brookie.If you have 6'' you are pleanty safe just drill a hole and make sure you have at least 3'' of good clear ice,The crud on top and the slush can be nerve racking.have fun fishing with your little one tommrow,good luck.

Sounds like it is going to be a nice day to be out on the ice,Take your little girl she will have a blast.If the ice gets sketchy,leave early.have a nice day.LLS
If everyone concentrated on the important things in life,there would be a shortage of fishingpoles.......... ..............Remember we all live downstream

Bring some rope and a boat cushion, might make you feel safer.

Wish I weighed as much as kid, I could fish a lot more early ice spots!
