Everyone,
Just a reminder about icy banks on the bow. Please be very concious of what could potentially happen. RickR's story reminds us of what can happen. He had a funny tale, but perhaps the next one won't be.
You can easily slip and crack your head on a tilting piece of ice, slip in the river, or while wading get taken out by a huge van sized ice sheet.
Please please please be careful and happy fishing.
My name is Dave and I am on the safety commitee here at FFC>
