Ice Fisherman Fell into Lake

It has been reported that a fisherman on the East Side of Bear Lake fell through the ice while fishing. Sources say that he was alone on his ATV and was not rescued for some time after he failed to return home at the time he was expected.    He was lucky to have been rescued by parametics. His body temperature was about 88 degrees and he was sent to Bear Lake Memoral Hospital Critical Care. 

The ice is only 3" in some spots! There are also methane springs, people on ATV's racing over the lake cannot see them.  Fishermen need to be careful and should not fish alone.
