Frozen lakes and ponds

[ray1970]

What is it that draws people to walk out onto frozen ponds and lakes? I've never seen a frozen body of water and ever thought about walking out onto it. I'd be afraid of falling through.

Ice fishing?

Cuz they lived in Minnesota and drove trucks on them for large quantities of perch?

I catch more ice in my freezer.....
I did some ice fishing back in NY in my youth, and now that I'm a bit wiser the shit I fished on was quite scary..

Done two ice rescues in my life. One good, one bad. I am the same way, I would not walk out on unknown ice without PPE.

I want to walk on every frozen pond I see. I don't though.

I love ice fishing but it's gotta be s minimum of 12 inches

I grew up in Minnesota.. Literally drove my car across the lake to school in the winter because it shaved off 3 miles.

Used to love ice skating just after the lake froze and before the snow came, you can skate along and see the bottom/weeds/fish and whatever else below you. Pretty cool.

Ice fishing houses in Minnesota:

Had a friend walk on a frozen pond. Let's just say he walked home drenched.

You'd never get me out on ice, especially in a plow.......
