Ice anglers stranded, rescued near Duluth: Lake Superior is not forgiving Katie Galioto and Brooks Johnson, Star Tribune
DULUTH – The fish were biting, and John and Porter Smith were sheltered from the freezing windchill in their icehouse just off the shore of Lake Superior on Feb. 9. Then they heard a crack.
The cousins were among 26 anglers stranded on an ice floe that broke away from the shoreline near 21st Avenue East in Duluth. The Duluth Fire Department received a call around 11 a.m. from a resident who saw the smattering of ice huts floating away, and crews rescued the anglers a few at a time by boat.
