misfish Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 WERE ICEFISHING I couldnt believe it when I checked a lake and there was 4 inches of good black ice. We did run into a lake that seemed to have a major weed die off,cuz we couldnt find any and the water looked real murky. Visability was 4 ft in 15 fow. Not good for us,but we got out the earliest we have ever in all our years. New Ice armour suit was perfect. What a difference from a bulky one piece suit. New HH under wear is primo warm. New eskimo hub 2 man,well,it,s a one man to me,but it will do what I need it to do,and thats to keep me warm and out of the wind. The screws anchors that come with the hub are so easy to turn in by hand and hold awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Cliff Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Be safe are the key words here! Someone will push the limit for the sake of getting out there, someone will pay with their life. Happens every year! When we tested the ice here it was three guys, roped together, 50' apart flotation suits and a boat in tow. Tested the ice every 50' or so. Just remember the next step could be your last step. Perhaps I am over cautious but there is a very slim chance that you will ever read that Big Cliff went through the ice and drowned. I haven't lived this long by being stupid LOL.

Unfortunatly there are those that seem to THINK they are smart and end up paying the price. (Just like no bank rober thinks they will ever be caught. The jails are full of them LOL.) I know you and would follow you out almost anywhere (walking in your foot steps)! Just glad to hear you had a good time and you were safe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
