I tend to venture on the ice but only if it's really safe. We currently have only 5 inches of ice. Enough to support a group of people. For me I wait until it reaches double digits in inches. Water on you when it's cold not a good combination.

Calm water lakes can get really thick ice and be pretty safe but I think driving on the ice anytime is scary!
Indeed can be scary. When I lived further North the ice would get 2 foot thick. There were times i ice fished out of custom designed camper trailer with sleeping accommodations. Yes rough water lakes and rivers I don't mess with.
I've only ice fished a time or two... Fun because we got into a school of the biggest crappie I have ever caught, but my strong aversion to the cold keeps me enjoying winter through the window!
🤣 Well said and true to many
