Rathbun Lake

Anyone know if there is safe ice on Rathbun?  Is there ever safe ice? 
It's easy to grin when your ship comes in, and you've got the stock market beat.  But the man worthwhile, is the man who can smile, when his shorts are too tight in the seat.

Havent fshed there for several years but used to catch alot of crappies thru the ice above the bridgeview area. Always went down there in late january and there was always good ice. Better check for yourself b4 u go out. Good luck if u go. Small jiggin spoons with a minnow head wrked well but never got any jumbos.
