Do you guys know if you can rent a bob house,ice shack,or whatever its called up there for the tourney? Or any cheap hotel or cabin rental?

Brendog9 · « **Reply #6 on:** Jan 28, 2014, 07:32 PM »

I did see something online about Bob house rentals in NH. I think it was on here somewhere. $65 a day for weekdays and $75 a day for weekends.

Do ya have a # or a link?

Brendog9 · « **Reply #8 on:** Jan 28, 2014, 07:39 PM »

No but I'm guessing if you hunt around the site or Google it you'll be in good shape.

finding anything around Meredith or surrounding area right now will probably be tough but the derby is thru out the state so do not limit your search to winni

We were nailing Lakers all day on Newfound Saturday. Between four of us, we caught close to 35. The two biggest came on tipups, one was six pounds four ounces. The other was 2.49 pounds. Cusk lines didn't produce at all, with just one little guy. Hardly any yellow perch and two pickerel, one was three pounds on the dot. The lakers came at all different depths, some in 16-18 FOW and others in 30-38 FOW.

Conditions wise, easily the best weather I can remember fishing up there over a weekend in the winter. I'm glad the fish cooperated too.

The lakers were incredibly aggressive. It was fun to watch on the flasher.

thats a great weekend. good job

Here's the big boy that I somehow forgot to mention in my original post. Easily the biggest fish I've seen anyone in our group catch (been fishing Newfound for nearly 10 years). It was released after a few pictures. After a few seconds in the hole, it thrashed, soaked the interior of the bob and was gone. No official measurements, but it was guestimated to be close to 36". We eyeballed the head to the tail afterwards.

About the average size for the weekend. Nearly all were "cookie cutters" in the 18-20" range. Such a blast on a light rod with six pound test.

Up in the house haha. You could probably fit three guys uncomfortably in the bob.

The best of both worlds.

Looks like you all had a great time!! Laker could have doubled as a cool door knocker.
