Funny ones!

That first snapshot reminds me of something that happened early this week out on Saginaw Bay Michigan (Lake Huron) with a large group of ice fisherman. I'm getting this second hand, but as it often happens out there, a huge slab of ice sheared off and folks that were well beyond a point of knowing what happened made the discovery once they started to head back to shore.

Rescue services from all over Michigan participated in getting people to safety via choppers and airboats. I'm not sure, but I think they end up leaving all of their equipment on the ice...only passengers get brought back.

Good advise but worried that an ice chest would put it over its weight capacity

You are correct. It broke off and free floated for quite a distance!! The Coast Guard and DNR picked them up β€œbut” will not take their fishing equipment with them!!! A lot of good equipment floating around the Bay!!!!🀣
