Ice reported unsafe at Fourth of July Lake

FISHING — A Washington ice fisherman visiting Fourth of July Lake on Thursday reported open water around the edges and water over the ice in the main portion of the lake.  He said he packed up and decided it was safer to go ice fishing somewhere else.

This information was reported and added into today’s Fishing-Hunting report by correspondent Al Liere, but somehow his original column was published in today’s paper without the updates.
