Safety Equipment
Message:
Hi, Of all the ice fishing safety equipment -> the one that gets the least amount of attention is the Whistle. A whistle is required on all PFD's. WHY? -> Because the sound of a whistle will carry much much further then the human voice. Also it's much easier to blow a whistle then to scream and yell. So, besides your picks and rope -> get a whistle -> it could very well help save your life! SeaDog1 :mrgreen:

well it woould get a persons attention but, many may ignore it a whistle doesn't mean come help either so unless a person living around the water or a person already fishing is really paying attention AND knows that a whistle blown on the ice means HEEEELP it may not be so helpful on the other hand the more attention you can get the better
