A close call on the ice near Alexandria serves as a reminder for all anglers. A truck pulling a fish house broke through thin ice between Little Mary and Big Mary Lake. Thankfully, the driver escaped unharmed. The Minnesota DNR recommends at least 20 inches of ice for heavy vehicles. With similar conditions in our Detroit Lakes area, always check ice thickness before heading out. Stay safe out there.
