Fisherman Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 Yup, living proof that the Darwin contestants are still hoping to win. Unfortunately they pass on their regressive genes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richyb Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 OH ITS FINE THEY WERE PROBOBLY WEARING FLOATER SUITS !!!!!!!! Totals Bull.. My uncle always gives my crap for not wearing a floater suit. Sure they are much safer but they give people a false sence of safety and they think they can walk on water. I have been wondering all day today as to where people would go for a dunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kemper Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 Even if they haven't gone in it will be a serious task to get them off the ice after this rain and slush freezes up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure you speak up and come clean when you get wet ! Well said Wayne. I went for a February swim at the tender age of 13 while in the care of an experienced angler and a lot of ice. If it ever happens again I will most certainly fess up but this is bordering on utter insanity given the conditions last season and this season so far.

BillM Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 There was no excuse for being out on Simcoe today.. It's not like this warm spell came outta no where. People are stupid, plain and simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure you speak up and come clean when you get wet ! I agree that no ice is safe and anything can happen, but to me there is a difference between a freak accident and plain old stupidity. Seems like anyone with half a brain should have been able to figure out that ice that already wasn't safe probably didn't get any better with this weather. I don't get it, continues to happen again and again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
