Sad anyway you cut it ! Condolences to the families.
I'll add a caution here.. as I suspect most will read this thread... that if anyone is considering Lake Temagami for ice fishing Whities, before Lakers open on Feb 15th think again!!!
We had a VERY experienced lake resident wash his sled today that lives on an island just North of Bear Island. He has decades of experience, knows where the lake freezes and doesn't. He had already travelled his packed trail for the past week, yet went through this morning. There is only 1" of ice in the majority of the Hub area of the lake. Bear Island has a sled only trail in place, but even it is questionable.
