its a little crowded but you only get 2 lines in the water, they pre drilled all the holes too, and they had holes everywhere. That pond is roughly 1 and a half football fields in size but is up to 40 feet deep in the middle,even the edges are about a one to one slope.Nice breakfast buffet too.  At the end of the derby they have to call in the numbers of the caught tags to dallas texas, to see if any match the winning number.,they originally said none matched ,so then they opened the sealed envelope the tourny director had been sent and one of the numbers did match, they got it straightened out very quickly,and the guy got his ten grand.this is very strictly monitored by Ct DEP too. They were there for the stocking.
