Watch those ramps!
Hi guys: Just wanted to remind folks who fish up here in north Arkansas that really cold weather also brings the danger of frozen ramps. Once your rig starts to slide, without a 4 x 4, you can litterally launch your boat, trailer and truck. That happened a couple of days ago in MO. Seems the guy was backing down a frozen ramp and the rig got away from him. One guy excaped and lived, one did not. I don't know all the particulars, but it would seem that a truck could get traction after the rear wheels went in the water, but maybe panic was the cause, who knows. Anyhow, be careful out there and tight lines.
If you're too busy to go fishing, you're too busy!
