Title: my day today
Post by: Curtis937 on January 05, 2013, 07:42:59 PM
ok so it started at reid park....fished for a bout an hour with no problems and no fish so i started walking around looking for the fish....after a few wholes the ice cracked under my feet and the crack ran out about 10'...so i left reid thankfully with out falling in....went to cj and saw my buddies dad and brother in a shanty on the ice at cj...started to get on and noticed the ice was prob 11/2-2" thick so passed and fished from the docks and we caught zero fish...so we headed to clark lake....the ice was around 3-5" when we started...we caught a few crappies and gills...then the ice started melting under our feet so we packed it up...almost went in again getting out of clark.....so i went home before i fell in i didn't wanna push my luck anymore for the day....just be carefull if your getting on any ice in springfield...its NOT safe by any strecth of the imagination....good luck

Sir, it is just SO much easier to be SAFE than sorry...ALWAYS have a pair of "cat`s claws" upon your person and atleast 50` of rope. Tie off to shore ALWAYS. Carry the auger or a 8` piece of 2x4 or PVC under 1 arm. Avoid "heaves" in the ice like the plague. Never fish alone if possible.
