[cool]I hear ya, dude! Good advice. I'm a little chicken (or smart, depending on how you look at it) and don't go out on the ice unless there's a good 4 inches of good quality clear ice. I know it's considered safe if there's a good 3 inches, but I still like at least one more inch. I got a kid now and one more on the way (and still don't have a good life insurance policy yet-SHAME on me!). There's some guys on the Utah board that have been known to go out on like 2 1/2 inches. I weigh 200 pounds, so I don't do that. If I weighed like a buck 40 or 50 then maybe I would chance that.
Anyway, I wish it was ice season right now, but I can wait another month and a half. Besides, I wanna catch some fall walleyes first from my tube!
