[QUOTE="Sluggo, post: 238540, member: 667"] During the low water years, I and my son were looking for fishable water at Beaver Bay on Oahe. First hole had 2 feet of ice and 3 feet of water, we drove on the ice south looking for more depth. Stopped and drilled a couple times, always 2 feet of ice but shallow water. Got to the last spot and drilled and the ice was like 10 inches thick....we had unwittingly (stupidly) driven to where there was current. We packed up and made a B line for dry ground. I told my son "don't tell mom". We then went to a small lake and fished for pike the rest of the day. While fishing, the sunflower heater started whistling and before we knew what was going on, flames erupted near the top of the propane tank. We both bailed out of either side of the shack, looked at each other and then started scooping snow on the tank. The flames didn't go out until the entire tank and sunflower were buried. I just shook my head and my son said "we better not tell mom". We laugh about it now but wasn't so funny that day. [/QUOTE]
