Happens every year lucky enough they were to be able to get off the ice, but goes to show people see videos on Facebook and social media last week ice fishing on the bay. Stupidity at its finest. “They did it so everyone else thinks they can too” We haven’t had any cold snaps or solid cold weather.

And some would consider these fools brave for venturing out...No, the one's who rescue them are brave! I hope they're stuck with the bill for the services of the recue.

Like I said. Darwin Award. If you're not sure what I mean. It's the award for removing one's self from the gene pool.

Question. If they have to rescue you off the ice ,do they let you bring your stuff with you? Or is it left on the ice?

That can be a REALLY tough one... if say you had your Puppy Dawg with you, and there's no room to take the poor thing!

Heart-breaker time!

My understanding is it's left on the ice.
