I had to work today, missed the derby, but drove by and saw a ton of people on the ice, any reports?

I couldn't make it but I drove by at around 4pm.  I only saw one shanty out on the ice.  What time did the derby end?

derby was excellent, run very efficiently as well...too bad i lost a tiger at the hole that was an absolute beast. let it run 3 different times after it got to the hole. the fourth time it got to the hole belly up and exhausted. my brother reached in to gill it and it got spooked and took off again but this time he rubbed along the bottom of the hole against the ice and frayed my line. so mad about it and it makes it worse that i fish there often and yesterday just happened to be derby day. (mulling over if i should get a small gaff) good looking pike took down first, weighed in at a little over 8 pounds. a pickeral that weighed over 4 pounds took down second, this thing was a beast.   


flaggs, f shiner, king martin, good to meet you guys, looking forward to bare hill this weekend

awesome tourny, five of us had good action early and all day. I caught a pickeral before I even had all my traps in. My buddy got 2 bass before he got all his traps in, one of wich was 4.70lbs to finish in third place ;D, not bad by 7:10 in the morning. My other friend got 2 pike but were only 24" and 25", and a bunch of cigar sized pickeral also my bro and my niece had flags flying all day but just caught all cigars. we had a good time and the guys running the tourny did a great job once again. I already can't wait till next year. :thumbsup:

We had another great year.  As always we were tentative until the end because of the weather, but mother nature helped us out with a couple cold nights.

I am going to try and post the pics on a website for viewing and also have a write up complete by next week.  Keep your eyes peeled and again, thanks to everyone who helped make this another success.
