Many cans and bottles are simply dumped down the hole in the bobhouse (or the hole without a bobhouse). It's pretty easy to see where this happens when you're diving the lake. a relatively neat pile of beer cans in the middle of nowhere (not near shore) is a pretty good indicator. I've seen it many times.
That said, I like to believe that most ice fisherfolk are environmentally minded, and do police their areas. It's the heavy-traffic areas like Meredith that will surely draw bigger crowds and, therefore, a handful of knuckleheads who leave their refuse behind.
