Just a heads up, there’s a derby Saturday. I think it’s 2,000 folks. Better make sure you have enough burgers and dogs

and there is the yearly Fuel & Food three day tourney this coming weekend, March 4-6.

We’ve got 8-10 inches off the campsites today. Driving wheelers and sleds out. We’ve been doing good with walleyes on the Edinburg side, multiple over 20 so far

Thanks, I take it that "multiple" 20 means numbers and not inches. It has been a while since I saw many 20 inch fish...h2l

Why do they cater this tourney to people that drive trucks on the ice in the first place?
