Anyone else fishing the Fresno Ice Derby?
« on: Jan 24, 2012, 01:49 PM »
I'm just curious to see if anyone else is fishing the derby this weekend?  I'm going to give it a go on Saturday.

To be honest, I have no idea who is running it, other than that it's put on by the Havre chamber of commerce.

I haven't heard yet.  I never even got a bite all day Saturday, and I couldn't fish on Sunday.  From what I was told, there weren't too many fish caught on Saturday.  I'm afraid I have no idea about Sunday.

Fishing was good Saturday 15 to 18 inches of ice in grmlin bay. 1st day Pulled 4 perch, 4 Northerns and 1 walleye. Walleye did not place at 22.50 Northern was 24.50, but the perch were 14.50 and 14.00 to place 1st and 2nd. Bob Strunk and Cody Strunk had a three way tie for 1st with there perch at 14.00. Mario's Northern took 2nd place at 25.25
