Default Re: Ice fishing accident

Looks like this is now a recovery operation... 2 -14 year old kids missing... heartbreaking.
I fell through the ice on a small pond when I was about 12-13. I was alone. Lucky for me, the water in that spot was only 3 -4 feet deep, and I made it out alive.. I am 58 years old, and will never go out on lake/pond ice again as long as I live. I don't need the fish that badly..

I see these stories all the time here in NY state, several a year. The ice here isn't even good so far this year, and NJ is a lot warmer than here... Its simply not worth going out on the ice on a big deep lake... My heart goes out to the poor parents of those kids.. I simply cannot imagine what the past day was like for them... bob
