The pond is 75% ice covered and it was raining when I did my sampling this morning.
With both trolling motors running full tilt at ramming speed I was able to break through the ice enough to get to where I needed to be.
I had a whole agenda of things to do out there this morning, but didn't want to risk getting stranded with no more juice in the battery. I don't enjoy swimming in 40 degree water with ice blades slashing at me.
Updated in the Cold Rain.
