SAINT PAUL, Minn. (KELO.com) — With the crazy weather we’ve had in the region lately, ice fishing might not be on your mind.
But it is getting to be that time of the year when hardy fishermen and women drill into the ice, sit on a bucket, and stare into an icy abyss.
The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources says to be careful if you’re thinking about getting on the ice.
They say weather, currents, snow cover, and springs can cause ice conditions to change rapidly and vary widely.
The department adds to never assume you’re good to go just because someone headed out before you.
