Default Re: Almost another ice tragedy

Lucky guys.

I get that ice fishing has risks, but Murphy stating "no ice is safe ice" is purely asinine. 4" of good ice can hold 100s of pounds per square inch. Simple physics. No politician is a good politician. After the rain tax we'll be hearing about an ice fishing tax once his street brine fund dries up.

People need to educate themselves and deal with the repercussions of a stupid f'n decision. Understand that temp fluctuations like we've had arent conducive to safe ice conditions. Wear a PFD. Wear ice picks. Have ample rope handy. Spud as you go. Invest in friends that'll tell you "it's not a good idea".

Jesus christ...if people just paused for a minute and pulled their heads outta their asses we'd have far fewer statistics.
