Hey I ice fish a lot and I'm still not used to the noise even though I know I'm safe, it still makes me jump when a good ripper goes right underneath me... I can't help it, I still have a little chicken in me for falling through the ice... even though I should be worried after the ice quits singing, not while it is... Guess it's good to be safe, but like mentioned anything over 4" you should be safe to fish without fear of breaking through... When you get to 8" you're really golden unless you try to take a truck out with you... Have fun and good luck... Later Jeff
When things get stressful think I'll go fish'en and worry about it tomorrow!
