Glad you're alright.......if I had a close call like that I would call it a season....just saying...
We all forget that a LOT of warmer waters are now constantly being pumped into the lakes from all streams, rivers, springs, etc.....this is the main reason the ice melts so fast.
I'm waiting for Chautauqua Lake to melt....last report I have is over a foot of ice but I'm betting dollars to donuts I'll be on that like on or before April 1st....history has proven that to me over and over......soonest was March 13th.
Play it safe and wait for the soft water,
Bob
