Someone at work was telling me about seeing a guy drive onto a lake where they were ice fishing, driving a big 4WD pick-up, TOWING a trailer with an ATV on it. He proceeded to drive across the lake to his traps. He then went from one trap location to another with the truck and the trailer, rather than use the ATV.

An update on the story was in tonight's paper. It seems the F250 (a diesel I found out) had sunk to the bottom (that's why I didn't see it yesterday on the way home). They are trying again to retrieve it, by cutting a 20 foot by 30 foot hole in the ice, and dragging it across the bottom to get a better grip. If it works they will try to do the same with the other truck. You can try this link for the story:
