Im with TJ on this! I have lived half of my life in North Wisconsin 3 hours North of Green Bay. I have done my share of ice fishing and Snowmobiling on ice. Stupid things happen every year! There are a LOT of variables that go into what you just asked. 3 inch would be my minimum unless I was in like 4 feet of water! But if I am out there over my head I would prefer 4 plus. We have had trucks out on 8 inches (small trucks) so that goes to tell you how much stronger 8 inches of ice is vs 3 inches! It also depends if there are springs in the water and flow under the ice.... Just error on the side of caution cause if you F up in the wrong spot you may never fish again!!! My parents have had 2 of their friends die from ice fishing... Just be careful! You need to know your water!!
