Safety gear
Something I can toss to someone drowning to pull them out.
Floating Rope
Shout to the victim to encourage them to fight to survive and reassure them that help is on the way. While you are doing this call 9-1-1
Preach
the ice might still be thin and you want to spread your weight out as much as possible
Roll Away
Guess I shouldn't have named that ______ , Charlie cause he sure bit my finger
Northern Pike
Snow does this to ice.
Insulates
When the ice is slippery and I need better traction
Toss one end of a rope or something that will float to the victim. Have them tie the rope around themselves before they are too weakened by the cold to grasp it.
THROW
The shock of cold water is going to cause you to want to take in large gasps of breath.
Brace yourself

Camper style / Glamping
It just wont stop bleeding
Some fish have anticoagulant mucus
Keeps me warm, and doubles as a pair of water wings
Flotation suit
If you can safely reach the victim from shore, extend an object such as a rope, ladder, or jumper cables to the victim. If the person starts to pull you in, release your grip on the object and start over.
REACH
Self-rescue has the highest chance of survival. remember the ice you came in on is the ice you know if safest
Focus on getting out
It took me 20 minutes but I drilled that hole, Definitely don't have to do arms tonight
Hand Auger
They keep the water open
Used to pull yourself back up on the ice
Ice Picks
A non‑professional shouldn’t go out on the ice to perform a rescue unless all other basic rescue techniques have been ruled out
Go
Depending on what stage of hypothermia you are in. Heating up to fast can cause you to go into shock again.
Slowly Reheat yourself

Spear fishing

Local Bait shop
used to check ice depth as you walk along
Spud Bar
Find a light boat to push across the ice ahead of you. Push it to the edge of the hole, get into the boat and pull the victim in over the bow. It’s not a bad idea to attach some rope to the boat, so others can help pull you and the victim to safety.
ROW
this ice is sure to be stable
