Lost Ice fisherman In our area.....
« on: Mar 10, 2006, 07:15 AM »
  :o :'(   I just heard that they were looking for a guy with dive teams up at hunters lake this morning.  from what i heard the guy was fishing by himself when he went through.  I do not know where at on the lake he was fishing but, but i would say that this lake is out of the running for safe ice this year.  Better hold off intill next year. 

I just wanted to warn you guys and see if anybody can confirm this. 

Be safe everybody its been a pretty good season so far lets not do anything stupid to blow it.  we got trout in a few weeks to slay.

The man was from  Berwick. They had a nice right up in the paper about him. I guess the local paper around Hunters Lake as doing a piece on him because he fishes it so much and it was going to be printed next week. I did not know him, my father new him and said he was a nice person. I wonder if they have ice in heaven!!!!!!!!

Please do not think that I mean any disrespect, cause I do not. But I can not help but wonder, if he had been a member of IS, would he still be with us???
I try to follow the reports on here, as most of us do, and it seems that this lake has not been really safe for some time. Thanks to our members for protecting us.
Such a shame................ :( :( :(

byron,,, you have a great point,,, however, this gives everyone a reason to report each trip we make out on the ice.  if we fish today on 7 inches of ice, and we fish the next day,  lets report the ice conditions.  condtions change so much so its hard to keep tract of.  myself and hithole we up at hunters 3 weeks ago this coming monday, and there was on older fella on they ice, by himself, walking around like it was a market.   i wonder if this was the same guy???
