Such a bad year for ice everywhere. Our lake still wide open and guys are fishing from boats. Rain and fog all week.
The lake is too big for ice fishing at the moment. Shut HER DOWN!!!
My man n I?
Home
Hwtie people think they can do anything , wtf going out on the lake now with this weather
These people have families…Go get them…
Minnesota land of a bunch of idiots.
Definitely a special kind of stupid
Resorts should be shut down now
This is becoming comical! They should let mother nature take its course and thin the herd
Give Upper Red Lake
back to the Red Lake Nation. Problem solved.
I can't believe there's enough ice to fish, lakes near me are still open.
Wait, again?
Prayers for the fishermen and rescuers
hahhahaahahahahah dumbaSS magats
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Laugh, laugh, laugh!
stay off the god damn ice people
There for the Darwin Awards ceremony, I assume….
Stupid Minnesotans.
Seriously! Question! What liability do the resorts have in this and what liability to the people themselves? I ask because, for a few reasons. Legally, can the government/town/county charge these people for the cost of rescue? I say this because, we ALL know that the winter of 2022 has had crap weather, crap ice on the lakes. So, who should take responsibility for the rescues? I feel so bad for those who have lost life's and loved ones. All for the love of ice fishing…………… Please, do not let your loved ones come here to ice fish……………. We have NO safe ice, and if anyone tells you otherwise, they are lying.
Thin ice, eh…?
The dnr doesn't have any say in the matter. Beltrami co sherrif has the primary reponsibility for matters of public safety. Godprotect the volunteers rescuing these folks.
They need to start charging these people for the cost of rescue. Tax payers shouldn't have to pay for their stupidity. Stay off the ice dipshits
Fish Fry tomorrow
This happened to me in Alaska and I was in the middle of a 3-mile wide lake luckily my brother-in-law came out with the canoe
Jesus watch over them
I live in MN and they have been saying for weeks to stay the hell off the ice…it isn’t safe!! I guess some idiots never learn. I feel sorry for first responders who have to go save the morons. They should leave them out there and weed out a few!!
They should learn from the above average temperatures that the ice is too thin, idiots
NO FISH IS WORTH A LIFE,PERIOD! NO MATTER WHAT A RESORT ASSOCIATION, FISHING GUIDES,OR TV HOST SAYS! STAY OFF THE ICE!
I fell through ice on a lake when I was 9 years old. Guess who never goes on ice ever? I dont care if they tell me its frozen to the bottom.
no more fishing gosh
People are dumb. All for some fish….
Again?! When will people learn to stay off the ice??? Ugh smh 🤦
It costs $12.00 to buy a couple of nice walleye filets at the grocery store. Probably netted and processed right there on the reservation and sent to market.
Dumb people out there not only risking their Lives but more importantly the Lives of the Brave Rescuers
Plain Stupidity
Buttheads!
