Hows this for a unmarked hole


Gordie

Recommended Posts

Thisd hole was either left open from a house falling thru or a house that is now on the bottom this is on little Elk lake by my house and three house wnet in last night. I went to shore to get some brush to mark this hole and a guy almost drove into the open hole... if you look close in the background you will see the other house that fell in or check out the ice fishing forum for more pics

PLEASE IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN TO YOUR HOUSE PLEASE MARK THE HOLE

I went to my house on clearwater on tuesday afternoon and my house was partially in. I jacked it up and repositioned it over the "new hole" that was about double the size of my original spear hole. It is amazing how fast those spear holes expand with that south wind blowing under the house and 50 degree weather. I also went through the ice walking out on Sunday in waste deep water, fortunately it was warm enough to walk back to the my house and change clothes but that ice is definitely spotty! Hopefully these cold temps help.

What do you think the deal was Gordie?

I thought I have heard a river goes through the lake is that correct?

This wasnt a spear house this was a angling house the holes were opened from the weekked warm weather and wthe wind pulled the warm air from the house and swirled it around under the house and opened up the holes and deterioated the ice until the house fell in. I posted pics. in the Elk rziver froum and the ice fishing forum of a couple other house that went thru.

Yes there is a current flow but I dont think that had much to do with what happened to these houses. These hoses were never moved off of holes that were growing and the neighbors bros house had three hole that were drill like a cloverleaf on all four corners. and it wasnt paid attention to.

This literally happened over night I was on the lake until almost 2pm the day before and these houses were sitting on the ice just fine I talked with a couple others that were also out the day before and said the same thing.

Saw a big hole like that on the lake I was spearing on this morning. Walked as close to it as I felt comfortable with and tossed in a piece of brush. I figure that should keep someone from walking into it once the top freezes over. Be safe out there and watch where your walking.
