Operation Reboot Outdoors Fishing Derby

At great pond in Aurora.  Being a slightly disabled Vet I am kind of partial to the cause.

This is a great derby, good fun, mix of fish. Got a huge sucker/fall fish one year.

Not sure I can make it but I went the their site and bought a couple raffle tickets. Looks like a great cause. Thanks for posting.
I'm also a big fan of Travis Mills and his work (and he's funny as hell to talk to).

He gave a presentation at my company's annual client conference a few years back.  Was a great talk.  Everyone was given a copy of his book.

He's way more fun "off the record". lol
More importantly, he has done so much for others. Helluva great human being.

As a disabled vet I should probably go.

The long lake derby is definitely a much bigger event.  Of course, there is always the week after and the water/ice will still be there.  I called yesterday and they have 4 to 5 inches of ice and my friends and I are going to give it a try Wednesday.  Last season we fished it a lot since there was a shortage of good ice.
