[size 2]Have that guy who always wants to go fishing but never pays for gas, drinks, bait, etc take a 20 lbs weight out as far as he can.[  ][/size]
[size 2]Once you hear the ice cracking mark that spot and fish about 15' from where your friend fell through.[shocked][/size]
[size 2]If you make the hole quick enough you might be able to pull him out too[ ][/size]
[size 2]If not make sure to blame the guy who never wants to drive[blush][/size]

i had that same so-n-so with me last weekend ! took him over to the west side of the state , used my camper , my gass , ate my food , and had me buy some ice for his fish .
up to there everything was fine , once at the local store thou , he started piling up the counter with chips and pop and all kinds of lures and bait , so i just walked out and let him deal with the clerk . it got the message sent .

Yeah baby![ ] That's how you do it! I did that with one of my cheap friends at a restaurant. he never paid for anything unless it was for him.
So 4 of us went to lunch and 3 of us got up at different times to go to bathroom or smoke or whatever. He was still eating.
So now we are all outside except him and he looks over his shoulder and see's us outside laughing. He tries to get up to get us and the waitress hands him the bill. He starts pointing at us and we run!![shocked]
Now the waitress and manager are standing in front of him demanding the money.[blush]
So he pays the bill ( $60 w tip ) and runs out chasing us around the parking lot!![mad]
It was the funniest time I can think of with him.[cool]

[cool] You got that right there pardner. fishing, just like any other hobby requires investment of time and money. Money can't buy everything, but some money is necessary to enjoy some of the finer things in life ie: fishing, eating, fishing, hunting, fishing, camping and even if you want to go fishing it will cost. ha ha ha ha ha. you understand there buddy.

LOL. For some reason I can hear lonehunter shouting, "Who's your daddy?!?!"
It's crazy what people do to others. Right now I've got nothing to worry about. My fishing buddy supplies the pop and gas, I supply the worms and lake maps.
When we take a third (a kid), his dad offers us all kinds of things, including money. I usually accept a couple bottles of water, but nothing more.

[size 2]When I take someone fishing with me on my boat or I drive I expect them to kick in something.[/size]
[size 2] If they do not have money that time I am cool [ ]but next time they better[mad][/size]
[size 2]Alot of us just meet somewhere when we fish. That way everyone takes care of there own buisness.[/size]
[size 2] But like I said there is always that friend that wants to skate. That's the one to take Ice Fishing[  ][/size]

Things should be icing up here in the next couple months. Maybe you can ask your friend to test the temperature of the water and then push him in!

but serioulsy all jokes a side, I cary a spud with me for first ice, I lift it up and drop it on to the ice about every step and if it fall all the way though I turn around and go back the way I came being carefull not to wonder form my path.
about every 5-10 feet I will use my hand auger to drill a clean hole and if the ice is not three inches I will not walk on it.
