Glad everyone was rescued although most of fishing gear and equipment was lost....

"Marius Anderson of London Road Films shot this aerial footage in Duluth after an ice sheet broke from the shore and took a group of nearly 30 ice anglers out into Lake Superior. The Duluth Fire Department rescued all of the anglers; most of the equipment was lost. The incident occurred on Feb. 9, 2021.":

Yes, major ice rescues were on Simcoe in 1997 and 2012

Someone should have rented a air boat and collected all the gear....
