Message: <blockquote data-quote="snow" data-source="post: 312557" data-attributes="member: 1056">Agreed 100% years back early ice we were on millie lacs lake,huge body of water on foot 3 miles out on 8"s of good clear ice,as we walked out we stepped over open cracks in the ice,it was misting out at daybreak,one guy in the group made a comment about walking along the crack with his minnow and spoon trolling like on open water....as we hit our location to fish a big wind came up,cracks wind=no good,we all got on walleyes quick that morning ,by day break the mist turned to snow squalls,I was the rookie in the group so "nevous nellie as my fishing line was at a 45gegree angle below the ice hole I was fishing in,when I asked why old guyz laughed at me said there was a current,I grew up on mille lacs,no current then as I opened my flip over shack I could see white caps between  us and shore,we were floating,we floated for 3 hours,resort folks couldn't reach us boats were not a option as they could see what was taking place running back n forth on wheelers with ropes and other gear huge sheets of ice would shoot up in the air 15'-20' in the air in slow motion then sink below the surface,figured we were about to swim coveralls undone ,boots untied,got lucky the wind was strong enough to push our sheet ice up on to shore ice 5 miles from where we started so we could walk off,one of the old guyz never ice fished again on mille lacs after that day.Another trip,my buddy didn't get wet but lost his truck on this day following a 1 ton resort truck out pulling a skid house,I was on a atv,13"s of ice unless snow covered then it was 8"s,this guy never went ice fishing again.[ATTACH]46856[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
