a couple years ago they moved the derby date due to unsafe ice conditions... in fact a few lives were lost from snow machines going through... some of the bays and coves always freeze... the broads are never a given..
Thanks for the info Roccus. Where I am planning on staying is only about 5 minutes east of where I was last time. To see full sized trucks out on the ice was life changing to me. We do not have that around my parts. As long as the ice is good it will be nice to have the ATV for my old man to get around. That is off course, if there is not too much snow. If you are looking for any company for the tourney, let me know. I know last years tourney was a bit rough for you but if we set a game plan I am all in and dedicated. Hopefully I will see you up there this year. If it were you Roccus, would yo say yay or nay for the house rental?
zwiggles/Roccus,I am going to reserve that house tonight and fly with it. My thoughts were the same that if the big lake is unfishable, plenty of water else where in the general vicinity. My old man loved it so much up there that we have to give it a go and with 7 days worth of time to fish, I am sure we will cover a lot of water. I will keep in touch with you Joe. Would be nice to fish together again. I am in the market for a flip over now suitable for 3 of us, at the very least 2.
LOL...rough...OH yea... I just made a bad choice of who I brought with me...as they say.. that's going to leave a mark!
pretty good chance I will be on my "home" waters...we had a lot of fun that rip... we defiantly need to do it again... fishing with you took the sting out of that awful derby partner.
Yeah I did not want to comment about how ROUGH it really was for you just in case they were a member on here. After hearing your story I am surprised you let me tag along. LOL
Joe and Mike I want in. I've been wanting to fish with you Joe since I met Jimmy and Mike its only a matter of time. If not the derby then maybe we get together on that rainbow spot you mentioned Joe. Ive met a ton of people from finder and shanty...the record is still going strong...no issues.
