As the MN Department of Natural Resources (DNR), ice is NEVER 100% safe! There is really no sure way to judge the strength of ice. The DNR recommends at least 4 inches of cold, clear ice but it’s still important to remember these cautionary tips:

⚠ Frequently check the ice thickness
⚠ Wear a life jacket or buoyant gear and carry ice picks
⚠ Stay away from areas with cracked or unsafe ice
⚠ Be prepared with a survival plan

It’s time to embrace the winter weather in full swing! Never tried ice fishing? Don’t let the fanatics, freezing weather, or wide array of gear intimidate you! Here are some things to keep in mind if you’re just getting into the sport:

β€’ Dress in layers and wear warm boots
β€’ Make sure you understand the fishing regulations at your chosen lake
β€’ Stay on the move β€” don’t stick to one fishing hole and expect to catch a fish!
β€’ Sunrise and sunset are the best fishing times
β€’ Be aware; avoid driving or carrying heavy equipment over an area with large or multiple fishing holes
