5 am i don't know if my clock has a 5 am this time of the year, hunting yes fishing??

Supposed to be better parking this year. Should be a good derby as long as this rain hardens up before the weekend.

After last year's parking issue, we have worked with the Town and the Land Owners to secure more parking. I'm sorry to hear that you won't be attending, but I'm more sorry to hear that you think there is a lack of ethics. Please go to our web page at hornepondderby.com or to facebook for contact information and reach out to us. We can only fix what we hear about. Also, please keep in mind that we are a volunteer group doing the best that we can to make it the best derby that we can. Thank you for your support in the past and hopefully you'll see your way clear to give it another try.

The year I went with my dad and pup we had a good time, didn't really know what we were doing then but everyone was nice and seemed to be having fun.

The prizes were great but a lot of people were not happy that you put a time limit on when you could get them . As it stated in the Maine law book you have to be in sight of your traps. So to go check out the prize board by law you would have to pull your traps. you should of left the drawing board up until you started handing out the awards for the fish .

Definitely agree with this!!! Because a lot of people don't come off the ice til the derby is about to end!!
