Right! I read up on the diferent kinds of deteriorated ice.
Yesterday, when I augered and screwed in ice tent screws, both were noticeably too easy and the ice had water in it.
There were two tents and ice fishing neighbors before I started. I also evaluated my risk and decided I was willing to fall through because I'm physically able to tolerate it, get out, recover body heat and change into extras of warm clothing.
Perhaps the ice will be good late December. It's bright and sunny now and I'm wearing a tee shirt.
