8" is perfectly safe, but the Station can't possibly hold everybody that wants to fish.
I no that but people don't need to push there luck there are plenty of other places to fish out there where they dont have to cross pressure ridges and soft spots.
Ya but fisherman "fish at there own risk". It says that right in the derby pamphlet.
The only thing i dont understand is that they don't want fisherman on it but there still having the sled drags tomorrow. But the ice is unsafe. I dont get it.
. "I know tons of people" had 5-600 or more dollars invested just to be there and fish in the derby.
Good news is that we will know who won tommorow maybe. but if if it is that unsafe and people are getting hurt..what else can you do... Maybe a discount for registered people next year?
No matter what decision was made, somebody would have been unhappy, better to be safe than sorry...G
I hate to see what happens with the few hundred shacks that may get left out there during these unsafe conditions-- with forecasted temps in the 40's for the rest of the week ?? Not good-- hopefully everyone gets out safe & sound
Structure. 8)
Whatever you think was the right decision, I know after today, if it was my decision to make and I kept it open and someone died.... Well lets just say, I would have still had it today and cancelled it after today just like they did. Again, in a lot of places, the ice is probably good, but in a lot of places it went bad fast.
I dont know about you but im mad about it. Because of a select few people who cant take a few mins and be careful they ruin it for everyone. Pressure ridges change through out the day and always should be checked. Fourwheelers and sleds aren't needed out there anyway this year there simply not enough ice i can walk just as fast as them because they need to keep stopping and checking the ice while i keep motoring along. just my .02
Listen the ice became unsafe EVERYWHERE we lost a bunch of ice and its not about a select group of people its about doing the right thing for te good of all people involved if you think you were safe out there today you are sorely mistaken and need to step back and think about the situation I'm sure it was a tough decision to make but it was the right one
