I don't think the ice will be drivable this year like last. Parking may be tight. I had trouble parking last year and there were hundreds of vehicles on the ice. I will probably sleep on the ice, please don't drive through my shanty. Good luck to all hopefully the PATS aren't playing a Saturday game.

Just got back from Stones, I'm all registered and set to go!

Bring on the PIKE!!!!

Not to be negative, but I hope the ice is going to freeze up a little more. Going on the amount of people that came out for this event last year, I can't imagine 600-800 people with five traps each being on 8in of ice. You know some people are going to bring sleds and four wheeling and some non bright person is going to bring a vehicle out. Doesn't seem as though the ice would be able to with hold that much weight the way it is right now.

Great cause....Great time last year. There was way too many pike left on the ice. I fish Sabattus year round and noticed that not many pike caught in the 4-6# range this summer. Do us all a favor if you aren't going to turn it in........put it back for another day.

If you don't eat it is there a reason to kill it? I would understand if it were a trout pond. I throw them all back unless I want to eat them. Some guy had a sled full of them last year, good way to teach your kids to just kill everything they catch. People are ignorant. I drive up there a few times a year from NH to fish with my Mainer friends. I have the respect not walk on some one else turf and throw a bunch of dead fish on the ice. I don't think all the pike fisherman would go to a trout lake and throw every trout and salmon they caught on the ice. Show some class and be a sportsman.

I will be there and have 4 or so people coming with me. It was a great time last year and I am looking forward to it again this year.

There is small group of us going to the derby and planning on staying overnight on the ice.What are the rules if any with having a fire on the ice?

bigfattydaddy · « **Reply #54 on:** Jan 05, 2011, 02:13 PM »

I am not really sure, but I have seen people with fires in half barrels before hope that helps.

i am in hope that someone can tell me about the parking. i was able to park last year on a road up to the north end on the west side off sawyer road. i know there was some trouble up there last year. i guess what i want to know is that road closed off this year. thanks

If everyone had class and was a sportsman,the pike wouldn't even be here in the first place.
