There are reports about how thick the ice is. Also there are precautions when first getting on the ice with your vehicle. Roll down the windows (some people even open their door) and secondly unbuckle your seat belt. It's comforting seeing big multi ton trucks out there before you even go out in your car :)

I haven't fished with a net nor my bare hands, which definitely sounds fun yet terrifying.

The last picture is my favorite too!
