The warm water in the back of the pocket will keep it thawed out an inch or two out from the mouth of the pocket until it gets dang cold. Atleast cold enough i dont wat to play in the water anymore Last edited by Bigfoot; 11/18/19 11:39 PM.

Not just directly around the pocket but maybe 2,3, even 4 out. Plus, set in moving water whether it's a drain pipe, field tile, a riffle, etc.
