Team IceShanty wins at Tobyhanna Derby
« on: Feb 10, 2008, 08:34 PM »
Cubefisher and Saphireblue99 teamed up at the tobyhanna derby today. Took the Cash prize for heaviest fish, I took a 4.4 lb Pickerel thiis morning 1st flag, and with Saphireblue assistance put her in the box. She held up and even beat the days biggest bass by a pound or so. Super windy out on the ice with a slow pick for most on tip-ups through the day. will post more photos tomorrow.

Good fishing guys; you bring honor to the Ice Shanty family. Despite it's rep, I've seen some really big pickerel on the ice at Toby. Those trout the state feeds them seem to be  a good source of protein!

I'm not positive but around 150 or so, Saphirre99 knows beter than I, it doesn't look crowded by the pics, but people were scattered all over and most were by the dam, which we were not.
