Vehicles through the ice

Lakegeezer · 02-21-2022, 04:12 PM

WMUR is reporting multiple vehicles through the ice this past weekend (2/19-20) but didn't report their locations. Seeing 19-22" of ice in M'boro Bay and many trucks, I'm wondering where they went through. Always good to learn where the weak spots are.

I have seen 5-6 in the last week on Facebook. A few were in Gilford near Welch/ Lincoln Park.

It will be an interesting spring. I can't recall a February with so many days this warm and so cold in the same month. A lot of temp swings and rain.

If an electric car goes through the ice and electrocutes the neighboring fish, can I collect and keep them?

I'm asking for a friend.

Does that fall into the same "if you hit it you can keep it" rule? I think it would, which means yes, all the fish you want
