Your best bet is to check with the local conditions and fishermen first before wandering out. Try to get someone to go with you (preferably and adult). Let someone know what your plans are. Leave a note on your parked car regarding your name and departure etc. Take a cell phone that is charged and all the other safety tools discussed in previous forums. Remember to scope out your trail on the ice with binocs, when in doubt, don't go out.
Have fun.
