Fish on guys-its going to be a great time. Heated Beach House - with bath rooms-food and big big windows if you want to warm up and look over the lake.
Going to be a great time for all who want to come.

  I will be at the FOF derby on Loomis Lake on Feb 5Th , its unfortunate that they are on the same day. We did not know this event's date when we set the FOF derby. Wish I could fish both.    This Walleye tourney is right up my alley.   Good luck to everyone.

looks like it should be a good day, except it may get windy. Forecast is 29 with SSW 10-20 winds. I sure hope there is some path breakers this week out from the ramp. Anymore I can't walk 1/2 a city block without resting. Man I need to get in shape. If the snow they got there is like what we got here in Logan, it will be tuff walking. Here Its packed hard with icey crust.

What a great time. Congrats to Jason on winning the big cash prize, some decent walleye caught. This being my first time in this tourney, I had a  blast. Quality people running this one guys. Great food, fun atmosphere, I will fish this tourney again. Conditions were rough at best but it was still a good time. Met some new faces from IS and got to visit with a few old ones. Thanks guys for putting on a great tourney.

(Doug, shoot me a pm and I'll get you my address. I was halfway home when I realized I forgot to give it to you. BTW, those harnesses are KILLER, can't wait to use 'em.)

Fishing was poor to say the least...but was a good time. Hope to see you all again at the spring outing.

Remeber to take the kids next time you go ....hook them on fishing to save them, and ensure our sport lives forever!

Hated to miss this one, but I couldn't be two places at once.  Looks like all had a good time in tough conditions.  Congrats to the winners.  Hopefully I won't have a scheduling conflict next year, as I was really looking forward to seeing everyone again and fishing Maxi.

Had a great time on saturday. A little sore from all the pulling through that snow. even managed to take a few fish home with us. We ended up with 5 decent perch (a bunch more tiny ones), and the gf got a 14" smallmouth.

Tks goes out to all who put the Ice trny together, it was a great time. Lots of good fun. One thing I might say, the chili was just a tad to hot but I ate it, then I had to go out and stick my head into a ice hole to cool my mouth down,JKing. This was my 2nd trny and as long as they have them I will go, those who couldn't make it sure missed a great full day of fun. Fishing was slow but thats just fishin.  Last yr it was windy, this yr it was the snow, next yr maybe the whether will cut us a break. tks again to all who put the trny on
