Especially hard to get out if you fall in with all this snow on the ice.

IF there is good ice, you don't have to worry if the water is coming up through your hole. The only reason this happens, is from the weight of the snow on the ice.

With the water coming out of that hole like that and to going down to around 0 last night, you should have plenty of good ice out there today.  Spud your way around.  Be careful and good fishing.
