Ice fishing this time of year isn't without risk.  A fellow found that out yesterday when he fell through near Goose Island.  Turns out he just got a little wet and cold.  Owner of Bob's Bait and Tackle, Scott Gardner says he likes to avoid going for a dip this time of year.  So, he stays close to shore, tests the ice with his spud and is smart about where he makes a hole in the first place
