No. at any time, any year, ever.

I have personally seen 37 measured inches of ice at joussard and 4 at the narrows on the same day.

Narrows at slave and train trestle at wab are two places you should not ever consider driving any vehicle. Take a sled along the shore and walk out, drilling holes as you go out. Can't overstate how dangerous that place is

I nearly learned the hard way. When i realized i just drove on 4-5 inches of ice and there was no good reason for my presence on this earth beyond divine intervention...it smartened me up a fair bit. Walking will do for me. As you say, to each his own.

How was the fishing?

Pretty good. Nine guys. We got out at 10:30. Fish sporadically all day. Bite started at 4:30, but by then we only needed two more keepers. A nice day for sure.
