an accident????really???the guy was on less then 2" of ice.i know everybody is itching to get out,but don't be foolish,if you don't care about your own life,think about all the people who's lives you put on the line,firefighters,emt's,cops who have to come rescue you when you do something stupid.
If that was directed At me , I didn't say it was an accident, he was pushing the envelope , really !!!

Ha Ha.  Teaching common sense is very easy.  It's the learning part that is so difficult for some folks.   :blink:

There is no safe ice at the moment that I know of. Better wait for another cold snap.

There is safe ice, if you're willing to look for it. Was on 5" Tuesday.  With the weather today,  most small water will be good

Definitely believable by me.  The pic I posted Saturday I was on 3.5 inches and it isn't no farm pond.  That was at 7 am and the temp was 5 degrees.  Was really hoping to get up there tomorrow because it's only been making ice since then but the olé lady shut that down.

The reason I said no safe ice a couple days ago is because down in the st Lawrence valley there is significantly less ice. And before today we were having 37* and snow. Not great ice making.. so I guess if your in the st Lawrence river area, be cautious....

Checked a favorite early ice lake tonight 3" with 1" of slush and 4" of snow. I spudded my way out 15' from shore when I heard the tall tail sign of unsafe ice under the spud "hollow thud". Turned around and went back to the truck. Soon we will be chasing them but I'm not taking an ice cold bath.

Man, getting out there to see only 3" is... depressing. So close but the long term forecast doesn't look too fantastic for making much ice. I'm hoping I have luck at my early ice spot this weekend. 4" and I'm fishin!
