How close is too close on the ice?, What's the etiquette?

Yup Tuna said it ,save up your sick days and fish during the week. You could't pay me to fish on the weekends.

Very good post, my thoughts exactly.

So i head out yesterday, to see a hut on my honey hole, and i've been fishing here 2 times a week almost all year, so i figure ill give it to him, I walk out past him another 400 feet maybe, pretty far away, to have him and two other huts come set up less than 40 feet away, in an area with only 4 huts,..... least he's off my hole lol

Twice the depth rule would be nice but somewhat rare. It really bugs me when people cant even respect the snowball rule. If i can hit you with a snowball then youre too close.

lol......................

How do you expect "others" to know about the 2X depth / distance rule, the snow ball rule, or just to have common sense about respecting the "rules?"

Taking your ice spot???? I think we expect too much from the once in a while angler, even a semi seasoned angler who simply does not care.
