 :tipup:THIN ICE. I see a lot of guys debating on the ice conditions.
 There was 8-10 inches in this area of deep creek MD on sunday.
2 men went through the ice yesterday afternoon and had to be rescued.
Here is a link withpictures http://www.deepcreektimes.com/update.asp
Iwas her fishing on sunday ther was plenty of good ice. This happened tuesday afternoon.
So if you think the ice will still be safe,you must be carefull. since this happened we have had 70 degree weather with lots of rain.
What do you REALLY BELIEVE? I know that we all have wishfull thinking about good ice but the fact is ice starts to melt at 28 degrees if there is sun, It starts melting at 33 degrees with rain.
monday was over 40 with rain, tuesday was over 50 with sun and today was allmost 70 with lots and lots of rain. YOU DO THE MATH

PLEASE BE CAREFULL

 Thanks,

ESP with the heavy snow that's comming down rite now. Can't see the bad spots. I see people on weekends all time,  this is groups... Just blundering out onto the ice. Walking across the lake screwing around. People just don't get it. They see guys out and think its okay everywhere. I don't know why people do that.
