I am just letting everyone know the Webster FOP Derby is still on for this Saturday the 17th and todays Ice update, there is still 8-10 inches of ice and shore lines are holding by the point breeze location Middle Pond. There will be several ramps made to assest in getting on and off to the ice if needed. I will keep everyone updated on this derby using this post. And you can also find information on Webster Police Dept website http://www.webster-ma.gov/157/Police-Department

Thanks Monk ;D

Unbelievable… Why are your insulting a person’s intelligence that puts on a uniform every day that involves dealing with the scum of society and usually gets verbally insulted by the same people he’s trying to protect, and might lose his life in the line of his duty’s????
I got an idea why don’t you show up Saturday and I will introduce you to some of those unintelligent police officers and you let’s see you call them unintelligent cops to their face.
The Webster Police are trying to put on a great day of fun for everyone and that’s all you can do is insult them.

Agree 110% with Bob

Don't bring the Trooper from Medford I have the Webster PD for my details cops GREAT BUNCH OF GUYS

Last time i checked it was 4 inches on Webster Lake Love Land on Monday so you have the wrong measurements , shores are already starting to get hard to get on.
-
another thing mistake on the flier is theres no Salmon that have been stocked in Webster Lake for years was gonna tell you that

Ok , I am just quoting the guy running the derby.. He said he was on the ice yesterday in front of point breeze and had those measurements.
-
oh i dont know if theres going to be ice to able to get on by saturday im hoping i can fish sat and sunday maybe monday and then ill have to fish somewhere else
-
I am NOT being negative by no means . But is it worth it to risk you life or someone else life to go catch fish. I was on Long Island last year on Lake Winnie lost 3 fisherman sad weekend. We all know there will be a lot of drinking going on out there. I would not want to be the one to put the ramps out there for people to use just use you best judge meant and please be safe not stupid
-
Total bunch of sallies on here. This is why we haven’t had a derby in mass in years because of over the top safe dinks. I’m all about safety but just because one section of the ice isn’t good doesn’t mean you can’t fish the parts that are safe and be smart about it. I remember a couple years ago the Whitehall Resevoir In Hopkinson had over a foot of ice on 96 percent of the pond but because one section had open water they cancelled the whole tournament. My father was able to get on the ice today at memorial and now he’s fishing Dudley pond in wayland and has over 9 inches of ice. I hope the derby is still on but you never know. All it takes is 1 idiot to fall through by being dumb to ruin it for everyone anyway. That’s usually what happens when a close call like this is made and then the following year they tighten up and are over precautious.

Either. Way I'll be on hardwater somewhere :tipup:

Amen to that. Always gotta have a back up plan. If No derby I’ll be heading over the boarder to NH

Has anyone checked Buffumville? That's suppose to be the backup lake!

I've caught 6# bass out of Buffumville.

My expectation is that this tourney will be called off last minute, not that there wont be ice. With that in mind I am going with plan B and heading up for a Big lake trip this weekend. Good luck to all that compete if this is still on. Was hoping to fish this tourney and get on the board but I am cutting my self short on this one.
-
your on a role ::)
Just speaking the truth, brother!
-
Seems like a major liability to the town to go forward with this tourney
-
Just letting people know Smith-Reid cove is wide open towards Indian Ranch due to the water circulaters from the IP boat. Have family who live on the water we are all ice fishermen and it sucks having your access to safe ice conditions taken away over something like this. Unfortunately there's no talking any sense into those who are responsible for the matter. It's nice to hear there may be safe ice other parts of the lake but SR cove has possibly 3-5" towards the ranch. Be safe

Great way to cover some water and conserve energy! 1 hole is all you need! Then again, you can drill 5 and make it look like a school of bait!

Great way to cover some water!
yes sir good luck up north sharps :tipup:

Boat Ramp has 8 inches Love land 3-4 inches its where the sun hits where you cant fish theirs a bunch of black ice out on the their which is about 1- 2 inches thick so watch where u go i put the chisel right threw with one chop so its risky. Its going to be 19 friday night so everything will freeze so we should be all set
-
One night of cold isn’t going to repair the damage that was done this week.
-
I already purchased my entry into the derby about a week ago, but I'm 80% sure I'm going to skip it. It just seems too iffy!

My group just bailed :-\

I just realized that my wunderground sticker no longer works so I trashed it. That should make you happy even though the station was actually located on WEBSTER LAKE.
And just so you know, this wise a** little boy was fishing Webster Lake long before you were born and probably long before your parents were born...

Anyone check the ice today , that fog this morning was very thick.
Had 5 inches on South Pond yesterday , I'd bet that's down to less than 3 today

Derby is ON!!!!

Derby is on, and tickets will be available at point breeze in the morning. If your unsure about the ice , then take a ride and look for yourself in the morning and make your own Decision.

lol 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 ha okay old man whatever you say don't busted a $$ on the ice tommorw

Good luck and have fun. My son and I are going to pass because of our uncertainty about the quality of the ice. I’m most nervous about the afternoon when it gets warm again. Seems 3/4 of the fisherman swims come when the ice is over 6” thick.
It’s not that we don’t trust in your reports, it’s just that it’s no fun for us if we have the ice in the front of our mind.
If you start to chip those little shattered windshield like squares, get off the lake.
Again , have a great day - hopefully we can be up to suppor the cause next year.

How’s the ice out there?

Just wanted to shout out to Mike for putting this derby on, everyone had a blast. I personally didn’t catch anything board worthy. My fiancé caught a 19” 3lb 11oz largemouth just before 7am that stayed on the board most of the day. We fished off the S/W side of goat island and had 5.5/6” had a great time and never felt iffy about the ice. I really look forward to this derby next year. Thanks again to Mike, and anyone who helped or donated prizes.

Looks like some solid fish caught today. Was hoping to fish the derby and hang some big goldens and see what what happened but had to get into work mode for the snow storm. Hopefully make it next year
-
Great tournament and completely safe. Sad that more people didn’t participate because of fear of falling through the ice (no one fell through). Had a great day wishing with my dad we had nonstop action all day caught rainbow trout small mouth bass large moth bass calico bass, perch and pickerel. Raffle and foood was great at point breeze with an view of the lake.

Fear of falling through the ice is a pretty good reason not to attend. Not doubting your judgement or any others that went today, glad it was a good day and for a great cause. I’ve gone fishing on melting ice like everyone else and I can’t help but worry every step I take. Maybe more experienced fisherman don’t worry like that. I can’t fish like that and I don’t blame others for passing.

Saintonoinis, it was nice to meet you. You guys did quite well. Great day to be out for sure.
